Still image warning

Avoid displaying still images (like jpeg picture ﬁles) or still image element (like TV programme logo, panorama or 4:3 image format, stock or news bar at screen bottom etc.) on the screen. Constant displaying of still picture can cause ghosting of LED screen, which will affect image quality. To reduce risk of this effect, please follow below recommendations:

• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.

• Always try to display image in full screen mode, use TV set picture format menu for best possible match.

• Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required level to achieve desired picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout process.

• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.

Using an HDMI or HDMI / DVI Cable: HD connection (up to 1080p)

Available devices: DVD, Blu-ray player, HD cable box, HD STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver, cable box, satellite receiver (STB)

✎

HDMI IN 1(DVI), 2(ARC), 3, 4, PC/DVI AUDIO IN

For better picture and audio quality, connect to a digital device using an HDMI cable.

An HDMI cable supports digital video and audio signals, and does not require an audio cable.

– To connect the TV to a digital device that does not support HDMI output, use an HDMI/DVI and audio cables.

The picture may not display normally (if at all) or the audio may not work if an external device that uses an older version of HDMI mode is connected to the TV. If such a problem occurs, ask the manufacturer of the external device about the HDMI version and, if out of date, request an upgrade.

Be sure to use an HDMI cable with a thickness of 14 mm or less.

Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a connection error may occur.

A basic high-speed HDMI cable or one with ethernet is recommended. This product does not support the ethernet function via HDMI.

This product supports the 3D and ARC (Audio Return Channel) functions via an HDMI cable. Note that the ARC function is supported by the HDMI IN 2(ARC) port only.

– If 3D Auto View is set to On, some functions such as Internet@TV may be disabled. In this case, set 3D

Auto View or 3D Mode to Off.

The ARC function allows digital audio to output via the HDMI IN 2(ARC) port. It can be enabled only when the TV is connected with an audio receiver that supports the ARC function.

✎

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)

When a digital audio system is connected to the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack, decrease the volume of both the TV and the system.

5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when the TV is connected to an external device supporting 5.1 CH.

When the receiver (home theatre) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s optical jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theatre receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 CH audio will be heard from the home theatre receiver. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio, connect the digital audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an amplifier or home theatre.

✎

Headphones : You can connect your headphones to the headphones output on your set. While the headphones are connected, the sound from the built-in speakers will be disabled.

NOTE

You may notice a small amount of screen flickering when watching 3D images in poor light conditions (from a strobe light, etc.), or under a fluorescent lamp (50Hz ~ 60Hz) or 3 wavelength lamp. If so, dim the light or turn the lamp off.

3D mode is automatically disabled in following cases: when changing a channel or the input source, or accessing Media Play or Internet@TV.

Some Picture functions are disabled in 3D mode.

PIP and Data broadcasts (MHEG / MHP) are not supported in 3D mode.

3D Active Glasses from other manufacturers may not be supported.

When the TV is initially powered on, may take some time until the 3D display is optimized.

The 3D Active Glasses may not work properly if there is any other 3D product or electronic devices turned on near the glasses or TV. If there is a problem, keep other electronic devices as far away as possible from the 3D Active Glasses.

When watching pictures from a 50Hz 3D source with its Game mode On, visually-sensitive viewers may see some flicker on bright images.

Photos of Media Play are shown in “2D → 3D” mode only.

If you lie on your side while watching TV with 3D active glasses, the picture may look dark or may not be visible.

Be sure to stay within the viewing angle and optimum TV viewing distance when watching 3D pictures.

– Otherwise, you may not be able to enjoy proper 3D

effects.

The ideal viewing distance should be three times or more the height of the screen. We recommend sitting with viewer’s eyes on a level with the screen.

To watch in 3D, wear 3D glasses and press the power button on the glasses. Viewing 3D TV motion pictures for long periods may cause eye fatigue and/or dizziness.
