Useful hints

Automatic Colour Management If the screen turns black with a grey scale bar and a sensor arm that swings down from the television frame upon pressing the standby button, an automatic colour calibration has started. Automatic Colour Management automatically compensates for colour changes on the screen for every 100 hours of use approximately. Do not switch off the television or disconnect it from the mains during the calibration.
