Updating the Software
When you update the software, the picture on your TV may come
on for a brief moment and then go out. The LED’s on the front of your set may be a solid color, off, or blinking. This is all normal. It is important to wait until the message appears on the screen indicating that the procedure is complete as shown in step 5.
