Manual

1. OLED Screen Care

OLED Display is state of the art technology and

combined with our Picture Quality Engine it has won an

outstanding number of awards. To ensure that your TV

always offers the best possible performance, it will

sometimes perform a display clean-up process while in

standby.

If you never put your TV in standby, you will regularly be

notified by on screen messages that the display needs to

execute this clean-up process. Please always follow those

instructions. Repeatedly postponing this process may

result in image retention, which may void your warranty.

Your TV should be left in standby in order to execute the

cleaning process in the background.

We also recommend that you avoid continuously

displaying static images or static parts in moving images

(like news ticker bar, soccer scores, game HUDs...).

TV Display refreshing

To protect the screen, OLED TV need refreshing process

over time.

There are 2 types of refreshing process:

• Normal refreshing: This will take place automatically

and it takes a few minutes with TV in standby mode.

• Deep refreshing: This will take a few minutes and need

to be triggered by consumer.

To allow OLED TV to perform refreshing properly,

please adhere to the following:

• For normal refreshing process to take place

automatically, always use remote control to switch off TV

and keep the TV power plugged.

• When normal refreshing message is shown on TV

screen, follow the onscreen recommended instructions.

• For deep refreshing process, it can be activated

manually via  Settings > Display and sound > Screen

> OLED SCREEN SETTINGS > Clear residual image. A

reminder message can also be shown on TV to request

user to perform deep refreshing, please follow

instructions and keep TV power plugged to allow the

whole process complete. It will take a few minutes. The

deep refreshing process shall only be done when residual

image is seen on screen even after 8 hours standby.

Manually performing Clear residual image too often

may reduce OLED display life time. However, it is

important to allow the refresh cycles, when requested by

the TV.

• Do not touch or apply pressure on TV screen during the

refreshing process.

• Always use remote control to switch off TV and keep

the TV power plugged on when refreshing is triggered.

* Note: In order to enjoy the best picture quality this

process is essential. If the unit demonstrably did not have

the chance to complete a refreshing process on a regular

basis, we cannot accept any returns, repairs, exchanges

or warranty claims on behalf of image residual

phenomenon within and/or out of the warranty period.

This is also the case when the TV is used predominantly

for gaming with static content on the screen, the TV is

only used for watching news channels (with static news

ticker bars) or other similar use cases that implication-

wise bear an increased risk for sustaining burn-in effects.

This is not in scope of the warranty.

Special Care for OLED TV

Organic LED (OLED) may experience on-screen image

retention (due to the characteristics of the material),

when an image is continuously displayed for a long

period of time or the same image is repeatedly displayed.

So it is strongly recommended to follow the instructions

to take care of OLED TV:

• Do not display any still image continuously or display

the same image for more than 10 minutes.

• Recommend to use ECO, HDR Home Cinema or Dolby

Vision Dark as picture style in normal home viewing

condition.

• Recommend to use OLED Contrast setting 50 or below

in picture settings when playing Game or watching TV

programs with logos or clocks on any parts of the screen.

• Switch off On Screen Display (e.g. the home menus) of

TV application program when not used.

• Switch off On Screen Display from connected external

video devices (e.g. DVD player). For details, refer to the

instruction manuals for the connected devices.

• Avoid displaying video with bright colors (including

white), text, clocks or logos on any parts of the screen for

a long time.

• Use Wide screen or Fill screen as picture format option

(see TV picture settings).

• Always watch video in full screen instead of a small

window on TV screen. (e.g. video in internet browser

page)

• Do not attach any sticker or label on the OLED panel to

reduce the chance of image residual phenomenon.

• Organic LED (OLED) displays are extremely sensitive to

hostile climate and external factors, like placing these

straight under the sunlight and/or ultraviolet

illumination as well as improper ambient temperature,

resulting in a decrease of luminosity, brightness and

lifetime of the OLED displays, pixel reduction and

irreparable harm and/or failure of the display. Please

note that the warranty does not apply to problems that

result, directly or indirectly, from the usage which is not

in conformity with these product instructions.

Displaying a still image for a prolonged period of time

may cause an image sticking. This phenomenon is

normal character for OLED panel and does not represent

What is the optimal viewing distance for my television? Verified

This partially depends on personal preference, but as a rule of thumb the optimal viewing distance is about 3x the diagonal screen size of the television. For a television of 60 inch (152cm) the optimal viewing distance would be 180 inch or about 4.5 meter.

Why are there letters next to the numbers on the remote control? Verified

Certain television settings may require you to enter letters. There are usually three letters or other characters on a button. When letter input is required, you can press that button once for the first letter, press twice for the second letter and press 3 times for the third letter. This way, text can be written with a minimum number of buttons.

What is the contrast ratio? Verified

The contrast ratio tells how far the whitest white is from the blackest black. A contrast ratio of for example 400:1 means that the blackest black on screen is 400 times darker than the whitest white. A high contrast ratio contributes to the sharpness of the image.

How do I measure the inches of my OLED television? Verified

Measuring the inches on your OLED television is done by measuring the diagonal distance between for example the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the screen (not the edge). One inch equals 2,54 centimeter, so when you measure 99 centimeter, this means your OLED television is 39 inches.
