The Energy Saving Feature reduces power consumption by adjusting peak screen brightness
When the TV is on, it turns off automatically if you do not press any button within the
set period of time.
Some models may not be supported.
If the screen appears too dark without any changes made to settings such as brightness, sharpness, color, and color depth in the smart TV settings,
it is possible that the Energy Saving Steps mode, Eco picture mode or Automatic Power Saving mode has been enabled.

When only part of the Picture appears black and white or dark
This symptom is not because TV is a defect, but rather because fighting channels (i.e. UFC channel),
frequently show scenes that are graphic or have excessive bleeding. To overcome the reluctance to watch,
the area is therefore handled in black and white.
The same logic applies to some channels where scenes show up in mosaic patterns.
