Troubleshooting
TV does not turn on
Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the TV and a working wall outlet. Try a different outlet. Ensure the remote control has fresh batteries.
No picture or sound
Verify that the correct input source is selected. Check all cable connections (HDMI, antenna). Restart the TV by unplugging it for one minute, then plugging it back in.
App issues (crashing, not loading)
Ensure your TV has a stable internet connection. Clear the cache and data for the specific app via the TV's settings menu, or uninstall and reinstall the app.
Wi-Fi connection unstable
Restart your router and modem. Ensure the TV is within range of your Wi-Fi signal. If using dual-band, try connecting to the 5 GHz band for a potentially faster connection, or the 2.4 GHz band for better range.
Picture quality is poor or distorted
Check your signal source. Ensure HDR settings are configured correctly if applicable. Perform a picture reset in the TV's settings. Verify that the HDMI cable is certified for 4K HDR.
