Auto power off

The TV will automatically turn off after approximately 15 minutes if it is tuned to a vacant channel or a station that completes its broadcast for the day and stops broadcasting on that channel. This feature does not work in video input mode.

Understanding the Power Return feature

If the power is cut off while you are viewing the TV and the power is resupplied, the Power Return feature will turn the TV on automatically.

If the power is going to be off for a long time or you are going to be away from the TV for a long time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet to prevent the TV from turning on in your absence.

As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare instances,

 

 

when viewing certain content (e.g., television broadcasts, video

 

 

games, DVDs), you may notice that the sound and picture are slightly

 

 

out of sync. This phenomenon can be caused by various factors

 

 

including, without limitation, video processing within the TV, video

 

 

processing in an attached gaming system, and video processing/

 

 

different compression rates used by broadcasters in their program-

 

 

ming. You may want to try one or more of the following suggestions,

 

 

which may help to reduce the effect of this phenomenon:

 

 

– If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a programmable

 

 

audio delay feature, use this feature to help synchronize the sound

 

 

to the picture.

 

 

– If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV channels, please

 

 

contact your local broadcast, cable, or satellite provider to inform

 

 

them of this issue.

 

 

 

Poor reception of broadcast channels

•

The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another channel.

 

•
