Recording (Cont.)

Important Notes

When using the USB/Media function, remember the following important points:
•  We strongly recommend you back up all data in the USB storage device to another 

storage device so you do not risk losing any data in case of an unexpected device 

failure or accident. 

We do not assume liability for any loss of data due to misuse 

or malfunction. Data backup is your personal responsibility.

•  You cannot change to a channel from another broadcaster or select another 

function while in recording mode.

•  If the signal is interrupted or removed while in recording mode, the recording will stop 

until the signal is established. This may cause you to lose program content.

•  Do not turn the TV off during timeshift recording, otherwise the TV will exit the 

time-shift function and turn to standby mode.

•  The file recorded can only be used in this TV. Do not copy it to any other device.
•  When you are in time-shift recording mode, you may experience some difficulty with 

a scheduled recording at different times without removing the USB recording device. 

You will need to remove the USB device as it is required to reset after each recording 

to protect the device from damage. If you see the message ‘DISK NOT READY’ 

displayed, remove the device, reconnect and proceed with your recording.

•  Some USB storage devices may not be compatible for smooth operation with this TV.
•  For large file sizes and large capacity storage devices, the loading speed may be 

longer. The recognition speed of a USB storage device may vary depending on the 

device.

•  When connecting or disconnecting the USB storage device, ensure the TV is not in 

USB mode, otherwise the USB device or the files stored in it may be damaged.

•  Only use a USB storage device formatted in a FAT32 file system provided with the 

Windows operating system. If it is formatted by a different utility program that is not 

supported by Windows, it may not be recognised.

•  Ensure any USB devices connected to the TV do not use/exceed 500mA power rating.
•  If an “Unsupported File” message is displayed, the file format or codec is 

unsupported or corrupted.
