Changes the settings related to power consumption.

####

- Energy efficiency reduces power consumption and thus saves money by reducing electricity bills.

Power Saving
  Reduces power consumption by adjusting the TV backlight. When you select [Picture Off], only sound remains.
Presence Sensor
  Monitors facial patterns and viewer movements, and turns the picture off when no viewer is detected.
  Sensor Mode
    [Strong]: Turns the picture off automatically shortly after the sensor recognises no facial patterns. This is the mode recommended for effectively reducing power consumption.
    [Moderate]: Darkens the screen temporarily when the sensor recognises no facial patterns, or turns the picture off after no movement is detected for a preset time. This is the mode recommended to avoid missing content while reducing power consumption.
    [Mild]: Turns the picture off if the sensor detects no facial patterns or movements for a preset time. You can set the length of time until the TV screen turns off. This is the mode recommended for normal TV usage with basic power savings.
    [Off]: Turns off [Presence Sensor].
    [Demo]: Quickly checks the operation of [Presence Sensor].
