Signal Information (digital channels only)
Unlike analogue channels, which can vary in reception quality from ‘snowy’ to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect 

reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analogue channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. You can, 

however, adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.

If the signal strength meter indicates that the signal is weak, physically adjust your antenna to increase the signal strength. 

Continue to adjust the antenna until you find the best position with the strongest signal.

To keep your product up-to-date with new Digital Television features then software upgrades are 

periodically / broadcast as part of the normal Television signal. It will automatically detect these 

signals and display the software upgrade banner. You are given the option to install the upgrade.
BY USB
Insert a USB drive containing the firmware upgrade into TV. Please be careful to not disconnect 

the power or remove the USB drive while upgrades are being applied. The TV will turn off and 

turn on automatically after completing the firmware upgrade. Please check the firmware version 

after the update is completed. When software is upgraded, video and audio settings you have 

made will return to their default (factory) settings.

We recommend you write down your settings so that you can easily reset them after the upgrade.
BY Channel
Upgrades the software using the broadcasting signal.
Standby Mode Upgrade
To continue software upgrade with master power on, Select On by pressing the ▲ or ▼ button. 45 minutes after entering standby 

mode, a manual upgrade is automatically conducted. Since the power of the unit is turned on internally, the screen may be on 

slightly for the LCD product. This phenomenon may continue for more than 1 hour until the software upgrade is completed.
Alternative Software
