Ultra HD (UHD)
TV supports Ultra HD (Ultra High Definition - also
known as 4K) which provides resolution of 3840 x
2160 (4K:2K). It equals 4 times the resolution of Full
HD TV by doubling the pixel count of the Full HD
TV both horizontally and vertically. Ultra HD content
is supported via native and market applications,
HDMI, USB input(s) and over DVB-T2 and DVB-S2
broadcasts.
High Dynamic Range (HDR) / Hybrid Log-Gamma
(HLG)
Using this feature the TV can reproduce greater
dynamic range of luminosity by capturing and then
combining several different exposures. HDR/HLG
promises better picture quality thanks to brighter, more
realistic highlights, more realistic colour and other
improvements. It delivers the look that filmmakers
intended to achieve, showing the hidden areas of
dark shadows and sunlight with full clarity, colour
and detail. HDR/HLG content is supported via native
and market applications, HDMI, USB inputs and over
DVB-S broadcasts. Set the related HDMI source
input as Enhanced from the Sources option in the
Settings>System menu or from the Sources>Source
Settings menu in order to watch HDR/HLG content,
if the HDR/HLG content is received through an HDMI
input. The source device should also be at least HDMI
2.0a compatible in this case.
Dolby Vision
Dolby Vision™ delivers a dramatic visual experience,
astonishing brightness, exceptional contrast, and vivid
colour, that brings entertainment to life. It achieves this
stunning image quality by combining HDR and wide
colour gamut imaging technologies. By increasing the
brightness of the original signal and using a higher
dynamic colour and contrast range, Dolby Vision
presents amazing true-to-life images with stunning
detail that other post-processing technologies in the TV
aren’t able to produce. Dolby Vision is supported via
native and market applications, HDMI and USB inputs.
Set the related HDMI source input as Enhanced from
the Sources option in the Settings>System menu or
from the Sources>Source Settings menu in order to
watch Dolby Vision content, if the Dolby Vision content
is received through an HDMI input. The source device
should also be at least HDMI 2.0a compatible in this
case. In the Settings>Picture>Mode menu two pre-
defined picture modes will be available if Dolby Vision
content is detected: Dolby Vision Bright and Dolby
Vision Dark. Both allow the user to experience the
content in the way the creator originally intended with
different ambient lighting conditions.

CEC
This function allows the user to control the CEC-
enabled devices, that are connected through HDMI
ports by using the remote control of the TV.
The CEC option in the Settings>Devices menu should
be set as Enabled at first. Press the Source button and
select the HDMI input of the connected CEC device
from the Sources List menu. When a new CEC source
device is connected, it will be listed in Sources menu
with its own name instead of the connected HDMI
port’s name (such as DVD Player, Recorder 1, etc.).
The TV remote is automatically able to perform the
main functions after the connected HDMI source has
been selected. To terminate this operation and control
the TV via the remote again, press and hold the “0-
Zero” button on the remote control for 3 seconds.
You can disable the CEC functionality by setting the
related option under the Settings>Devices menu
accordingly.
The TV supports ARC (Audio Return Channel). This
feature is an audio link meant to replace other cables
between the TV and an audio system (A/V receiver or
speaker system).
When ARC is active, the TV will mute its other audio
outputs, except the headphone jack, automatically and
volume control buttons are directed to the connected
audio device. To activate ARC set the Sound Output
option in the Settings>Sound menu as HDMI ARC.
Note: ARC is supported only via the HDMI2 input.
Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC)
Similar to ARC, the eARC feature enables the transfer
of the digital audio stream from your TV to a connected
audio device via the HDMI cable. eARC is an improved
version of ARC. It has a much higher bandwidth than
its predecessor. Bandwidth represents the range of
frequencies or amount of data that is being transferred
at a time. Higher bandwidth translates into a higher
amount of data that can be transferred. Higher
bandwidth also means that digital audio signal doesn’t
have to be compressed and is much more detailed,
rich, and vibrant.
When eARC is enabled from the sound menu, TV
first tries to establish eARC link. If eARC is supported
by the connected device, the output turns into eARC
mode and the “eARC” indicator can be observed on
the connected device’s OSD. If an eARC link cannot
be established (for example, the connected device
is not supporting eARC but supporting ARC only) or
if eARC is disabled from the sound menu, then TV
initiates ARC.
For eARC to function properly;
 The connected audio device should also support eARC.
 Some HDMI cables do not have enough bandwidth to
carry high-bit-rate audio channels, use an HDMI cable
with eARC support (HDMI High Speed Cables with
Ethernet and the new Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable
- check hdmi.org for latest info).
 Set the Sound Output option in the Settings>Sound
menu to HDMI ARC. The eARC option in the Sound
menu will be enabled. Check to see if it is set to On.
If not, set it to On.
Note: eARC is supported only via the HDMI2 input.
System Audio Control
Allows an Audio Amplifier/Receiver to be used with
the TV. The volume can be controlled using the re-
mote control of the TV. To activate this feature set the
Sound Output option in the Settings>Sound menu
as HDMI ARC. When HDMI ARC option is selected,
CEC option will be set as Enabled automatically, if it
is not already set. The TV speakers will be muted and
the sound of the watched source will be provided from
the connected sound system.
Note: The audio device should support System Audio Control
feature.
Game Mode
You can set your TV to achieve lowest latency for
games. Go to Settings>Picture menu and set the
Mode option to Game. Game option will be available
when the TV’s input source is set to HDMI. When set
the picture will be optimised for low latency.
Auto Low Latency Mode
You can also enable the ALLM (Auto Low Latency
Mode) option in the Settings>Devices menu. If this
function is enabled the TV automatically switches the
picture mode to Game when ALLM mode signal is
received from the current HDMI source. TV switches
back to previous picture mode setting when the ALLM
signal is lost. So you won’t need to change the settings
manually.
If the ALLM option is enabled, picture mode can not
be changed as long as ALLM signal is received from
the current HDMI source.
In order for the ALLM feature to be functional the related
HDMI source setting should be set to Enhanced. You can
change this setting from the Sources>Source Settings
menu or from the Settings>System>Sources menu.
E-Manual
You can find instructions for your TV’s features in the
E-Manual.
To access the E-Manual, enter Settings menu, select
Manuals and press OK. For quick access press Home
button and then Info button.
By using the directional buttons select a desired
topic and press OK to read instructions. To close the
E-Manual screen press the Exit or Home button.
Note: Depending on model, your TV may not support this
function. The content of the E-Manual may vary according
to the model.
