power modes

on/off and sleep mode

When you quickly press and release the Power button, the digital entertainment center

processes for a moment then enters sleep mode (rather than turning off completely), and

the cooling fan runs quietly. This sleep mode allows the digital entertainment center to power

up quickly when you turn the device back on. From sleep, the device powers on to the

home screen.
You can power down the device completely by pressing and holding the Power button for six

seconds. The cooling fan will turn off and the software will reset.
If the device has been powered off or has experienced a power loss, the next power-on

will require a one- to two-minute startup sequence and will bring you to the initial welcome

screen.

screen saver

Because some TV screens may be susceptible to burn-in, or low-grade damage to the screen

image when static images are displayed for an extended time, the digital entertainment

center switches to a screen-saver mode when it is inactive for 10 minutes: the TV displays a

screen saver and the front-panel display dims. To restore the regular views, press any button

on the remote or the front panel. (The first button press simply refreshes the screen and is not

processed.)

tip

If your digital entertainment
center stops responding,
you can reset the system by
pressing and holding the

Power

button for six seconds

to power off, and then
powering on again.
