You have finally bought the HDTV that you have been longing for and you want to get the best out of it. Here are some tips for you, to know how to get the best out of your HDTV.
The Right Setup
Many people want their HDTV mounted on the walls. However, this procedure is suitable only to people who doesnt tend to arrange their belongings very often. But if you are the type of person who likes to rearrange your furniture often, then I recommend that you should just let your HDTV stand alone, therefore it is easier for you and for the HDTVs condition to be moved often. Also, dont forget to check the manual for the proper connections, make sure to connect your Blu-ray player, gaming console, etc. properly and make sure you have connected the right wirings and the right HDMI cables to their designated locations.
Proper Handling
I know that this is just pure common sense, but some people tend to forget that if you are doing the connections, dont turn your HDTV upside down or tilt it in an awkward position or manner. Because if you do this, some small particles may be detached and your HDTV might not work properly. Ask a friend or a family member to help you if you cant do it on your own. To avoid scratches and damage to your HDTV, place a thick blanket on the floor first before placing your HDTV on top of it to start the turning process.
Proper Cleaning
Use soft and clean cloth to clean your HDTV. Use water to spray on the cloth, never spray water directly to your HDTV. Use water and non harmful chemicals to spray onto the cloth to remove unwanted stains. Never spray water directly on your HDTV.
Adjust Your HDTVs Settings for Better Viewing
You have installed in your house the HDTV you just bought, but somehow its picture is different from the one you saw from the store. Well, thats because they have adjusted the HDTVs optimization, and that is what you should also do. Check the HDTVs manual guide for proper adjustments to its optimization settings. Adjust the color, contrast, brightness, sharpness, etc. for better picture quality.
The Right Ventilation
Never position your HDTV in a place where there is direct sunlight. Close the curtains or blinds to shade your HDTV from direct sunlight. Use proper air-conditioning to the room or area where your HDTV is located. Use a small fan and place it at the back of your HDTV if you dont have air-conditioning in your house to prevent your HDTV from overheating.
Just follow these simple tips, and your HDTV will live a lot longer compared to HDTVs that were not properly maintained. It is important to take good care of our HDTVs and things that we value so we can enjoy and get the best out of the things that we bought.
