Protect Your Modern TV: Avoid Power Strips, Use Off Function
TV owners should be cautious when powering on and off their modern TVs. Sudden power interruptions from using power strips can cause damage, while improper shutdowns can lead to software issues and screen problems.
Instead of using power strips, always use the appropriate off function on the TV remote or the mechanical button. This ensures a safe shutdown and prevents potential damage.
OLED TVs require special attention. They should not be completely disconnected from power to avoid software problems and prevent damage. These TVs need a standby mode for essential maintenance processes like 'Pixel Refresh' and 'Panel Refresh'. These processes prevent screen burn-in and keep the device functional. Abruptly cutting power can cause software and display damage.
Even in standby mode, OLED TVs require care to prevent image retention and potential screen damage. Turning off smart TVs can also interrupt software updates, potentially causing problems that are difficult to fix. However, leaving modern TVs in standby mode uses very little power, unlike older TVs.
To protect your modern TV, always use the appropriate off function and avoid using power strips. OLED TV owners should ensure their TVs remain in standby mode for essential maintenance processes. Smart TV owners should be aware of potential software update interruptions upon turning off their TVs.
