The problem
Try this!
The TV is hot.
Watching TV for an extended period of time causes the panel to generate heat. The heat
from the panel is dissipated through internal vents running along the top of the TV. The
bottom, however, may feel hot to the touch after extended use. Children watching TV need
constant adult supervision to prevent them from touching the TV. This heat, however, is not
a defect and does not affect the TV's functionality.
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 "Mode Not Supported"
message appears.
The output resolution of the attached device is not supported by the TV. Check the TV's
supported resolutions and adjust the external device’s output resolution accordingly.
The Captions item in the TV
is grayed out.
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.
The TV smells of plastic.
This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.
