Problem

Possible Solutions

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.
  • After extended use, you may feel hot when touching it. This heat, however, is not a defect and does not affect the TV's functionality.

The TV smells of plastic.

  • This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.

The plastic cabinet makes a "clicking" type of sound.

  • The "clicking" sound can be caused when the temperature of the TV changes. This change causes the TV cabinet to expand or contract, which makes the sound. This is normal and the TV is OK.

When I turn on my TV, there is a delay for a few seconds before the picture appears. Is this normal?

  • Yes, this is normal. The TV is initializing and searching for previous setting information.
