OLED Screen Care

OLED Display is state of the art technology and combined with our Picture Quality Engine it has won an outstanding number of awards. To ensure that your TV always offers the best possible performance, it will sometimes perform a display clean-up process while in standby.
If you never put your TV in standby, you will regularly be notified by on screen messages that the display needs to execute this clean-up process. Please always follow those instructions. Repeatedly postponing this process may result in image retention, which may void your warranty.
Your TV should be left in standby in order to execute the cleaning process in the background. We also recommend that you avoid continuously displaying static images or static parts in moving images (like news ticker bar, soccer scores, game HUDs…).
TV Display refreshing
To protect the screen, OLED TV need refreshing process over time.
There are 2 types of refreshing process:
· Normal refreshing: This will take place automatically and it takes a few minutes with TV in standby mode. · Deep refreshing: This will take a few minutes and need to be triggered by consumer.
To allow OLED TV to perform refreshing properly, please adhere to the following:
· For normal refreshing process to take place automatically, always use remote control to switch off TV and keep the TV power plugged. · When normal refreshing message is shown on TV screen, follow the onscreen recommended instructions. · For deep refreshing process, it can be activated manually via Settings > Display and sound > Screen > OLED SCREEN SETTINGS > Clear residual image. A reminder message can also be shown on TV to request user to perform deep refreshing, please follow instructions and keep TV power plugged to allow the whole process complete. It will take a few minutes. The deep refreshing process shall only be done when residual image is seen on screen even after 8 hours standby. Manually performing Clear residual image too often may reduce OLED display life time. However, it is important to allow the refresh cycles, when requested by the TV. · Do not touch or apply pressure on TV screen during the refreshing process. · Always use remote control to switch off TV and keep the TV power plugged on when refreshing is triggered.

  • Note: In order to enjoy the best picture quality this process is essential. If the unit demonstrably did not have the chance to complete a refreshing process on a regular basis, we cannot accept any returns, repairs, exchanges or warranty claims on behalf of image residual phenomenon within and/or out of the warranty period. This is also the case when the TV is used predominantly for gaming with static content on the screen, the TV is only used for watching news channels (with static news ticker bars) or other similar use cases that implicationwise bear an increased risk for sustaining burn-in effects. This is not in scope of the warranty.
    Special Care for OLED TV
    Organic LED (OLED) may experience on-screen image retention (due to the characteristics of the material), when an image is continuously displayed for a long period of time or the same image is repeatedly displayed. So it is strongly recommended to follow the instructions to take care of OLED TV:

· Do not display any still image continuously or display the same image for more than 10 minutes. · Recommend to use ECO, HDR Home Cinema or Dolby Vision Dark as picture style in normal home viewing condition. · Recommend to use OLED Contrast setting 50 or below in picture settings when playing Game or watching TV programs with logos or clocks on any parts of the screen. · Switch off On Screen Display (e.g. the home menus) of TV application program when not used. · Switch off On Screen Display from connected external video devices (e.g. DVD player). For details, refer to the instruction manuals for the connected devices. · Avoid displaying video with bright colors (including white), text, clocks or logos on any parts of the screen for a long time. · Use Wide screen or Fill screen as picture format option (see TV picture settings). · Always watch video in full screen instead of a small window on TV screen. (e.g. video in internet browser page) · Do not attach any sticker or label on the OLED panel to reduce the chance of image residual phenomenon. · Organic LED (OLED) displays are extremely sensitive to hostile climate and external factors, like placing these straight under the sunlight and/or ultraviolet illumination as well as improper ambient temperature, resulting in a decrease of luminosity, brightness and lifetime of the OLED displays, pixel reduction and irreparable harm and/or failure of the display. Please note that the warranty does not apply to problems that result, directly or indirectly, from the usage which is not in conformity with these product instructions.

Displaying a still image for a prolonged period of time may cause an image sticking. This phenomenon is normal character for OLED panel and does not represent a defect of the TV. Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen for an extended length of time. Screen saver To reduce the chances of residual images on the TV screen, the screen saver (moving logo) will be triggered in such circumstances. – when static setting menu elements are shown on screen for more than 2 minutes. – when static setting menu elements of Apps are shown on screen for more than 2 minutes. – when Teletext is being displayed for more than 2 minutes. The screen saver may not be triggered in such circumstances. – pausing playback on an external source (e.g. HDMI), as the TV is not displaying static setting menu elements. Once the screen saver is active, it can be closed by pressing any remote control button. Other actions like inserting a USB stick or casting content will execute in the background, but these activities will not interrupt the screen saver.
Philips TV is equipped with the following to take care of OLED screen: · Automatic refreshing process Perform screen refreshing process when necessary. · Automatic screen brightness control Gradually reduce the screen brightness when still image is displayed for a long time. · Screen Saver Display screen saver when still image is displayed on screen over a longer period of time.

Problems
The TV cannot find the satellites I want or the TV installs the same satellite twice
· Make sure that the correct number of satellites is set in Settings at the start of the installation. You can set the TV to search for One, Two or 3/4 satellites.
A dual head LNB cannot find a second satellite
· If the TV finds one satellite but cannot find a second one, turn the dish a few degrees. Align the dish to get the strongest signal on the first satellite. Check the signal strength indicator of the first satellite on screen. With the first satellite set at the strongest signal, select Search again to find the second satellite. · Make sure the settings are set to Two Satellites.
Changing the installation settings did not solve my problem
· All settings, satellites and channels are only stored at the end of the installation when you finish.
All satellite channels are gone
· If you use a Unicable system, make sure you assigned two unique user band numbers for both built-in tuners in the Unicable settings. It might be that another satellite receiver in your Unicable system is using the same user band number.
Some satellite channels seem to have disappeared from the channel list
· If some channels seem to be gone or displaced, the broadcaster might have changed the transponder location of these channels. To restore the channel positions in the channel list, you can try an update of the

channel package.
I cannot remove a satellite
· Subscription packages do not allow removing a satellite. To remove the satellite, you have to do a complete installation again and select another package.
Sometimes the reception is poor
· Check if the satellite dish is solidly mounted. Strong winds can move the dish. · Snow and rain can degrade the reception.
