LED TV SAMSUNG Series 5 5200 it restarts itself

[academia50]

Well, that, it restarts and I can't turn it off with the remote control.
The curious fact, the television was inactive for 15 days, I disconnected it from the electrical network when I was absent for vacation....
All timer functions are controlled and are OFF.
Some clue?
Thanks!

I have seen the same report on some Sony's over on AVS.
You may have to do an initial setup again. Anyway, you may get better answers over there.

I contacted technical support and received the following message:

" Turn off the TV, disconnect it from the power supply and any other cable that is connected to it (HDMI, USB, etc).
Once disconnected, identify the power button on the TV and hold it down for 60 seconds (with the TV off). Plug the TV into the electrical current ( without turning it on ) . Wait 15 to 20 seconds with the equipment turned off and after this time turn on the screen.
When you do this step please indicate if it worked. "

YES, IT WORKS !
(I suppose that here an EPROM type memory or something similar was reset, digital is not my forte)

Thanks for your reply !

PS: I must admit that when I looked for the TV manual and found the technical support web address I did not have much hope, good for Samsung!
