Maintenance

1. Screen Cleaning

To clean your TV screen, use a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn marks, a non-ammonia and alcohol-free screen cleaning solution is recommended.

• Apply cleaning solution to the cloth, not directly to the screen.
• Gently wipe the screen to remove dust, dirt, and fingerprints.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

2. Software Updates

Periodically check for and install software updates to ensure optimal performance and access to the latest features. This can usually be done through the TV's settings menu under "Support" or "Software Update."

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your TV, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps.

No Power / No Picture

• Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the One Connect Box and the wall outlet.
• Verify the One Connect Box is properly connected to the TV.
• Check if the wall outlet is functioning by plugging in another device.
• Press the power button on the remote control or on the TV itself.

No Sound

• Check the volume level on both the TV and any connected audio devices (soundbar, receiver).
• Ensure the TV is not muted.
• Verify audio cables are correctly connected to the One Connect Box.
• If using external audio, check the audio output settings on the TV.

• Adjust picture settings (brightness, contrast, sharpness, color) in the TV menu.
• Ensure all video cables are securely connected and not damaged.
• If using an antenna, check antenna positioning and signal strength.

Remote Control Not Working

• Replace the batteries in the remote control.
