Securing TV to the Wall

(Wall mount included model only)

• Please use the TV close to the wall after installation.

How to fix anchors and screws

(Wall mount included model only)

Please make sure that:

• The wall mount should be attached to a stud. This usually will not be a problem, but depending on individual circumstances, there may be cases when the ability to mount into a stud is not possible. In this case, there are a variety of drywall anchors, such as toggle bolts, which may provide a solution. If using drywall anchors, please be sure the anchors and the wall have the ability to support the weight of your TV. Please note that the supplied anchors may not be the correct ones for your individual situation, so you should check with a local professional.
• Other unspecified walls must be capable of supporting pullout loads of over 70 kgf (686 N) and shear loads of over 100 kgf (980 N) per fastener.
• Use an Ø 8 mm drill bit for concrete and a hammer (impact) drill or Ø 4 mm drill bit for wood stud to drill holes.

For installation on wood stud

1. Drywall
2. Wood stud

Use the Ø 4 mm drill bit for wood to drill holes with the depth of 76 mm.
(Clean the drilled hole.)
Without using the wall mounting anchor, fasten the wall mounting screw directly to the wood stud.

When connecting to the PC (HDMI), no signal is detected.|

• Turn the TV off/on using the remote control. 
• Reconnect the HDMI cable. 
• Restart the PC with the TV on.

Abnormal Display|

• If the product feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” when it is turned on. This is normal, there is nothing wrong with product. 
• This panel is an advanced product that contains millions of pixels. You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly coloured dots (white, red, blue or green) at a size of 1 ppm on the panel. This does not indicate a malfunction and does not affect the performance and reliability of the product. This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not subject to exchange or refund. 
• You may find different brightness and colour of the panel depending on your viewing position(left/right/ top/down). This phenomenon occurs due to the characteristic of the panel. It is not related with the product performance, and it is not malfunction. 
• Avoid touching the screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce some temporary distortion effects on the screen.

Generated Sound|

• “Cracking” noise: A cracking noise that occurs when watching or turning off the TV is generated by plastic thermal contraction due to temperature and humidity. This noise is common for products where thermal deformation is required. 
• Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise is generated from a high-speed switching circuit, which supplies a large amount of current to operate a product. It varies depending on the product. This generated sound does not affect the performance and reliability of the product. 

The TV does not turn on continuously due to Always Ready mode operation or does not automatically turn on by sensor.
(Depending on model)|

• The motion sensor is located on the bottom centre of the TV. 

• The motion sensor is only supported by some models. 

• If there is a foreign substance on the motion sensor, it may not work properly. 

• If the environment around the TV is too bright or too dark, the motion sensor may not work properly. 

• Obstacles in front of the TV may affect the detection function of the motion sensor. 

• It can operate by recognising changes in lighting around the TV or movement of objects (pets/robot vacuum cleaners, etc.). 

• To stop using the Always Ready mode in → [ ] → [General] → [Always Ready] → [Enable the function], or to use only the General Always Ready mode function, you can select Enable Always Ready mode, turn off the screen, and then stop using the motion sensor in [Options]. The screen-on function with the motion sensor can be set by adjusting the performance of the sensor through the [Options] → [Motion Sensor Sensitivity] setting.

• Make sure to wring any excess water or cleaner from the cloth.

• Do not spray water or cleaner directly onto the TV screen.

• Make sure to spray just enough of water or cleaner onto a dry cloth to wipe the screen.

Precautions for Protecting the OLED TV Screen

Unlike regular LED/LCDs, OLED TVs produce images that emit light for each pixel, achieving a perfect black colour and delivering clear images without blurring.

Due to the nature of the organic materials used to achieve high-resolution image quality, OLED displays generally experience image retention on the screen, which can be a persistent phenomenon. This phenomenon is observed in all OLED panels, and although recommended picture modes can minimise image retention, current technology cannot completely prevent this from occurring.

Displaying the same image for a long time or repeatedly displaying the same image can cause image retention on the screen, which is a common phenomenon in OLED panel products due to the nature of the product. This product has a built-in screen protection feature. Avoid displaying images that are likely to cause image retention, and follow the recommendations.

Images that are likely to cause image retention

• Images with black areas on the top and bottom and/or the left and right sides of the screen.
• Images whose aspect ratio is 4:3 or 21:9.
• Images that are fixed for a long time, such as program number, station logo, game console icon, set-top box menu, etc.
• Other fixed screen images or repeatedly displayed images.

Running [Pixel Cleaning] to Protect the OLED TV Screen

The OLED TV is equipped with a pixel cleaning feature to check the status of the screen by itself and prevent image retention that leaves an image on a screen. This feature automatically calculates the optimal execution time based on the accumulated viewing time and is automatically executed when the TV is turned off. While this feature is running, horizontal lines may appear at the top and bottom of the screen. The pixel cleaning feature works when the product is connected to the power cord and main power.

• To run this function manually, press the button on the remote control, go to [ ] → [General] → [OLED Care] → [OLED Panel Care] and press [Pixel Cleaning].

Recommendations for Minimising Image Retention

When watching the TV for a long time, press the button on the remote control, go to [ ] → [Picture] → [Select Mode] and set the mode to [Eco] / [Auto Power Save] (Depending on country), go to [Advanced Settings] → [Brightness] and set [OLED Pixel Brightness] to a lower level. In addition, press the button on the remote control, go to [ ] → [General] → [OLED Care] → [OLED Panel Care] and set the [Adjust Logo Brightness] value to [High].

When showing images with black bars at the top/bottom/left/right side of the screen, press the button on the remote control, go to [ ], and go to [Picture] → [Aspect Ratio] → [User Selection] → [Vertical Zoom] or [4-Way Zoom] to remove the black bars.

Turn off the menus for setting up devices such as set-top boxes so that they are not displayed on the screen for a long time.

Note

• When the screen is showing one fixed image for a long time, the screen brightness will be automatically reduced and then restored once the screen content changes. This is a normal function to minimise image retention.
