It's not listed in the help list
"House" symbol--> Setup (the cogwheel) --> "Pictue" --> "Pixel Plus HD" --> "Dynamic Backlight"

it sounds like your TV is set to Shop mode, rather than Home use mode. so it will aout change some settings in terms to catch the eye like it should do in a display of a shop. and that means Dynamic Contrast will auto enable too.
