Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Solution
No Power / TV won't turn on	Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the TV and a working electrical outlet. Try a different outlet. Check if the remote batteries are dead; replace if necessary.
No Picture / Black Screen	Verify the correct input source is selected (HDMI 1, 2, 3, 4). Check HDMI cable connections to external devices. Restart the TV by unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in.
No Sound	Check the TV volume and ensure it's not muted. If using external audio (soundbar, receiver), ensure it's powered on and correctly connected. Check audio settings on the TV and external device.
Remote not responding	Replace the remote batteries. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the TV. Try re-pairing the remote by holding the Home button for 10 seconds.
Slow Performance / App Freezing	Restart the TV. Check your internet connection speed. Clear cache for problematic apps in settings. Perform a factory reset as a last resort (this will erase all settings and data).
