This may explain your device shutting down randomly. Learn how to change this setting below.

Changing time before Idle Standby

Please Note:

  • If your device is inactive for more than 30 minutes after being in 'Sleep Mode', it will enter 'Deep Sleep Mode'. Once in this state, your device will no longer display a visible LED light.

  • You can press the power button, on your remote control, to turn your device on again.
