Frequently Asked Questions

How can I prevent screen burn or image retention?

Do not display a still or partially still image on the LCD panel for more than two hours, and always reduce brightness and contrast when displaying stills.

What should I do if small bright or dark pixels appear on the screen?

These pixels are normal because the TFT LCD panel uses sub-pixels and will have no impact on product performance.

How do I connect external devices using Anynet+?

You can set up your TV with connecting Anynet devices and switch between them using the dedicated Anynet menu located in the Channel section.

If I press and hold the EXIT button, what happens to the settings?

The product settings will reset to factory defaults, which is part of the design and not a defect.
