Troubleshooting

Picture Issues

When the TV has trouble with the picture, these steps may help resolve the problem.

Testing the picture

Before you review the list of problems and solutions below, use Picture Test to determine if the problem is caused by the TV. Picture Test displays a high definition picture you can examine for flaws or faults.

The problem	Try this!
Flickering and Dimming	If your TV is flickering or dimming sporadically, you may need to disable some of the energy efficiency features. Disable Brightness Optimization, Brightness Reduction, Motion Lighting, or Contrast Enhancer. Run Picture Test. When the tested image quality is normal, check the signal of the connected device
Component Connections and Screen Color	If the color on your TV screen is not correct or the black and white colors are off, run Picture Test. If the test results indicate that the problem is not caused by the TV, do the following: When using the One Connect Box, confirm that its video input connectors are connected to the correct external device video output connectors. When using the component cable, confirm that the green (Y), blue (Pb), and red (Pr) jacks are plugged into their proper connectors. For more information about how to connect an external device, run Connection Guide
Screen Brightness	If the screen appears too dim, try changing the settings under Reset Picture or disabling Brightness Optimization If the colors on your TV are correct but just a little too dark or bright, try adjusting the following settings first.
Blurring, or Juddering	If you notice blurring or juddering on the screen, use the Picture Clarity Settings function to resolve the issue.
Unwanted Powering Off	If your TV appears to turn off by itself, try disabling some of the TV's energy efficiency functions. See if Sleep Timer has been enabled. The Sleep Timer automatically turns the TV off after a specified period of time. If the Sleep Timer has not been enabled, see if Auto Power Off or Off Timer has been enabled and disable it
Problems Powering On	If you are having problems powering on your TV, there are a number of things to check before calling the service department. Confirm that the TV's power cord is connected correctly at both ends and that the remote control is operating normally. Make sure that the antenna cable or cable TV cable is firmly connected. If you have a cable box or satellite box, confirm that it is plugged in and turned on. In case of a model that supports One Connect Box, check the One Invisible Connection or One Connect Cable between the TV and One Connect Box.
Unable to find a Channe	If your TV is not connected to a cable box or satellite box, run Auto Program When using a broadcast receiver such as set-top box and IPTV, check the connection to the TV. When the symptom persists, contact your service provider.
The TV image does not look as good as it did in the store	Store displays are tuned to a digital UHD channel or HD channel. Change the output resolution of your devices, such as digital broadcast receiver, IPTV, and set-top box to UHD or HD. Be sure to use an HDMI cable to enjoy high quality videos To connect the TV with your PC, make sure that your PC's graphic card supports UHD resolutions. For more information about the supported UHD resolutions, refer to "Supported Resolutions for UHD Input Signals." For more information about the supported 8K resolutions, refer to "Resolutions for Input Signals supported by 8K models (QN7**A series or higher)."
The picture is distorted	The compression of video content may cause picture distortions, especially in fast moving pictures from sports programs and action movies. If the signal reception is weak or poor, screen distortion may be visible but it is not a malfunction. Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 3.2 ft) may cause noise on analog and digital channels
The color is wrong or missing	If you’re using a Component connection, make sure that the Component cables are connected to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause color problems or a blank screen.
The color is poor or the picture is not bright enough	Go to Picture and then adjust the Picture Mode, Brightness, Sharpness, and Color settings. See if Brightness Reduction has been enabled. Try resetting the picture.
There is a dotted line on the edge of the screen	Change Picture Size to 16:9 Standard Change the output resolution of your external device.
The picture is black and white	Check whether Grayscale is set to On.
The picture won’t display in full screen	HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying upscaled SD (4:3) content. Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen when you watch movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV. Adjust the picture size options on your external device or set the TV to full screen.
The Caption function in the TV menu is deactivated	When an external device is connected with an HDMI or Component cable, the Caption function is unavailable. Adjust the caption setting on the external device.
Captions appear on the TV screen	Turn off the Caption function in Caption Settings
The HDR of the connected external device turns off	Expand the reception range of the corresponding HDMI input signal in Input Signal Plus.
The TV remains on or does not turn on automatically.	If the surrounding area is too dark or bright, the motion sensor may not work normally. The performance of the motion sensor may be affected by the installation environment (height, tilt, obstacles). If the clothes you wear or your skin color is similar to the surrounding shading, the motion sensor may not work properly. The TV responds to all visual changes around it (lights, displays, dogs, out-of-window changes, and other occurrences). You can adjust the response level by adjusting the sensitivity of the motion detector.

Sound and Noise Issues

When the TV has difficulties with sound, these steps may help resolve the problem.
