  • Page 3: Set-Up And Safety

    SET-UP AND SAFETY - ------------------------------------------------------------ Please note the following information when setting up your television set. This television set is designed to receive and display video and audio signals. Any other use is expressly prohibited. The ideal viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal. External light falling on the screen impairs picture quality. To assure sufficient ventilation make sure there is enough space around it in the wall unit. The television set is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it in the open, please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or splashing water. Do not expose the television set to any moisture. Do not place any vessels such as vases on the television, as they may spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk. Place the television set on a solid, level surface. Do not place any objects such as newspapers on the television set or cloth or similar items beneath it. Do not place the television set close to heating units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair cooling.
  • Page 4 SET-UP AND SAFETY - ------------------------------------------------------------ The screen of your LCD television meets the highest quality standards and has been checked for pixel faults. Despite the great care taken in manufacturing, technological reasons make it impossible to completely discount the possibility that some pixels may be faulty. Provided they are within the thresholds specified by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by the warranty. Notes: Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it. Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the external devices and the antenna. Make sure the power plug is freely accessible. Caution: If you want to use a wall bracket for your television, make sure you read the assembly instructions for the wall bracket carefully or have your specialist dealer mount it for you. When buying the wall bracket, make sure that all the fastening points needed on the television are there on the wall bracket and that they are all used when it is mounted.
  • Page 5 GENERAL INFORMATION - --------------------------------------- Special features of your television Your television set enables you to receive and watch digital stations (via DVB-T), including in High Definition (HD). At present, reception for these digital television stations in High De- finition is only possible in some countries in Europe. This television can receive and process all analogue and all unencrypted digital stations. This television set has an integrated digital and analogue receiver. The digital receiver unit converts the signals from digital stations to provide outstanding audio and picture quality. The TV guide (only for digital stations) tells you of any schedule changes at short notice, and provides an overview of all the stations’ schedules for the next few days. Detailed information on the individual stations – if it is provided by the broadcaster – is also available in the electronic programme guide. You can connect various data media, for example, an external hard drive, a USM memory stick or a digital camera to the USB socket. Using the file browser, you can then select and play the file formats you want (for example, MP4, MP3 or JPEG data). Receiving digital stations To receive digital stations you need a digital rooftop or indoor an- tenna (passive or active indoor antenna with its own power sup- ply). Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every station has its own trans- mission frequency. Instead, several stations are grouped into what are known as bouquets on a regional or national level. You can find the current transmission information on teletext from various broadcasters, or look in a TV guide or on the Internet.
  • Page 6 GENERAL INFORMATION - --------------------------------------- Environmental Precautions If you will not be using the TV set for several days, the TV set should be disconnected from the mains for environmental and safety rea- sons. TV will not consume energy in this condition. As the TV set is not disconnected from the mains when the TV set is just turned off, pull the plug from the mains to disconnect the TV set completely. If the TV set has main switch, it will be enough to turn the TV off via main switch. TV will reduce energy consumption almost to Zero Watt. TV consumes less energy on stand by mode. However, some TV sets may have features that require the TV set to be left in standby to work correctly. TV consumes less energy, when brightness is reduced. Those items mentioned above will help you reduce the consump- tion of natural resources as well as save your money by reducing electricity bills. Some fluorescent tubes used in this TV set also contain mercury. Follow your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.

  • Page 53: Additional Information For Units Sold In The Uk

    INFORMATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Additional Information for units sold in the UK. Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains supply. The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European countries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from many European countries. This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated fuse. In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only, which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a qualified electrician. Note: The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere. If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective, ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock hazard. If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers should be obtained from your dealer. Important: The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the following code: BLUE – NEUTRAL BROWN – LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N” or coloured black. Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.
