Remote control handset RD11, RE11(Protos only)  
The remote control sends commands to the TV set with the aid of infrared light. For this reason, you should always point the remote control at  
the TV set for reliable operation. Use of the remote control may interfere with the operation of other devices or systems controlled which use  
infrared light (such as infrared headphones).  
The television must be switched on or in standby mode (ON/OFF key depressed) when it is to be operated by remote control. Always point the  
remote control in the direction of the TV for operation. A pilot lamp starts to flash as soon as a key on the remote control handset is pressed.

1. Setting up and connecting  
Setting up  
When selecting a suitable place for the TV, be sure that no bright  
light or sunlight falls on the screen. Light may cause reflections  
and impair the brilliance of the image.  
The best viewing distance is five times the picture tube diagonal,  
e.g. about 3.5 m for TV sets with a 70 cm screen.  
5x cm  
y
y
Connecting the aerial  
TV sets require adequate ventilation. The ventilation  
slots at the rear of the set should therefore never be  
covered by curtains, doilies, newspapers or similar  
objects. Likewise, all slots at the bottom of the set  
must be freely accessible so that the intake of air is  
not impaired in any way  
Standard SAT and terrestrial station aerial sockets are fitted at  
the rear of the TV.  
Thunderstorms represent a danger for all electrical appliances! If  
lightning strikes the power line or the aerial, the TV may be dama-  
ged even if it is switched off. Therefore, always unplug the mains  
lead AND aerial during thunderstorms. If the TV is not going to be  
used for an extended period of time, for instance when on holiday,  
then disconnect the set both from the mains and the aerial.  
Aerial connection  
Do not set up the TV near a radiator as this would  
impair adequate cooling.  
Do not place  
-
burning candles or  
- flower vases filled with water  
on top of the TV set.  
Hot wax and liquids destroy the electrical components  
and jeopardize the electrical safety of the set  
Connection sockets for a Hi-Fi  
system or an external amplifie  
External loudspeakers  
External loudspeakers  
The sockets for connection of external loudspeakers are located  
on the rear of the TV set and are identified by the symbols  
. The impedance of the external speakers must not be  
less than 4 Ohms. When external speakersare plugged in, the  
internal speakers on the front of the TV set are switched off. The  
subwoofer on the back of the TV set remains on.  
y
If you place the set in a wall unit, leave sufficient space  
on all sides so that the air can circulate freely.  
Mains voltage  
Your TV set is intended for use in dry rooms. If you wish  
to use it occasionally outdoors, be sure to protect it  
against any kind of moisture (rain, splashes, dew, etc.).  
Plug the mains lead into a wall  
outlet. The TV set is equipped for  
230 V ac.

1.3 Backlight (only Protos)  
An innovation on the Protos models is the backlight integrated into the rear cover. This provides optimum room illumination for watching

Switching on/off:  
Press the  
key.

Programme position  
management  
2. Programme selection  
This TV set can manage up to 225 TV programme positions. If you are connected to a cable network or use a terrestrial aerial, you will not need all  
of these positions at the moment. If, however, you have a SAT upgrade kit installed, the number of programmes can increase drastically. We do not  
know how many programmes will be available in the future. For this reason, we have provided plenty of programme positions in reserve. For  
selection of the desired programme position, we have invented a simple input method which saves you having to enter three digits for each position.  
The first digit you enter is normally the hundreds digit. If, however, you have less than 100 programmes stored, this digit auto-  
matically moves to the tens position. If you have less than ten programmes stored, it moves to the units position.  
Example: you have stored programmes in positions 1 to 35 and you want to select position 3. Press the keys and or simply and  
confirm with  
OK  
. Programme position 4 can be selected by simply entering , since there are no programme positions higher than 39.  
Further examples are shown in the following text.

CTI stands for Colour Transient Improvement and  
improves the transitions between different coloured  
areas of the picture, making the picture appear much  
sharper. The CTI function is effective for both trans-  
missions received by way of the aerial input and for  
signals received via the AV sockets. CTI also provides  
a visible improvement when playing back from a video  
recorder.  
However, in certain applications (such as playing back  
from an S-VHS video recorder), the CTI function may  
just have the opposite effect.  
When playing back from such recorders, CTI can result  
in a lower-quality picture. For this reason, this menu  
permits you to switch off the CTI function for specific  
programme positions.

Switch-on/off and  
reminder time  
8. Time settings  
In the „Time settings“ menu, you can enter settings which will instruct the TV to switch itself on or off, and to display a reminder at a given time.  
Switching from summer time to winter time and vice versa is carried out automatically by the teletext clock or when the set is  
switched from standby mode to programme position 1.  
The switch-on time function will automatically turn on the TV at the preset time if the television is in standby mode. The switch-off time  
function will automatically switch it off as desired. The reminder service is intended to help you remember things which you have to do  
later on, for instance a telephone call. All three settings can be jointly programmed.  
Example: The TV is to switch itself on at 20:00 hr, remind you of something at 21:45 hr, and switch itself off at 23.30 hr.

Your TV set can be protected against unauthorized use. It is possible to prevent any use of the television at all or to permit viewing of up to  
five specific programmes. Consequently, the childlock can be set to prevent a child from seeing violent films, yet still provide access to  
children’s programmess on selected channels. Access to such permitted programmes can be provided in general or within a specified  
period of time.  
Example:  
The children shall only be allowed to watch programmes on the programme positions 01, 02 and 05 from 14.00 to 18.00 hr. Access to all  
other programme positions shall be excluded.

8.2 Recording with the timer  
The menu "Timer recording" is intended primarily for recording Pay-TV programmes (e.g. Premiere). When using a Metz video recorder of  
the VC, VE or VD (VF since April 2000) series you can also record SAT programmes* with this menu. For this purpose, the video recorder  
must be connected to the EURO 1 socket.  
*only if a SAT upgrade kit is fitted  
8 timers can be programmed up to 2 months in advance.  
Example: A VHS video recorder with Data Logic is connected to the EURO 1 socket of the TV, while a Pay-TV decoder (e.g. Premiere) is  
connected to the EURO 3 socket. You now wish to record a film running on a Pay TV channel.

9. Connecting headphones  
Headphones can be connected to the TV by way of the connecting socket underneath the fascia cover at the front. The socket will only  
accept headphones with a 3.5 mm (Carat/Stratos 6.3 mm) jack plug.  
We recommend the use of headphones with an impedance of at least 32 Ohms. Headphones of a lower impedance (down to approx.8  
Ohms) will impair the sound quality.

10. Hi Text  
Hi Text permits broadcasting stations to improve the display of information and graphics. In the past, there were only eight colours  
available; with Hi Text, there are 4096 possibilities.  
Furthermore, the introduction of so-called pixel graphics makes it possible to present the information pictorially. The broadcasting stations  
are currently in the process of adopting these innovations.  
We have implemented Hi Text in your TV set in such a manner that you can switch it on and off as desired. Pressing the R key switches  
from Hi Text to Megatext or vice versa.  
The currently selected mode („Megatext“ or „Hi Text“) is displayed at the top of each page.

There will be certain Hi Text pages, e.g. stock market, news, weather forecast, etc., that you willl want to read repeatedly. We have pro-  
grammed a way of making it easier to read such pages: Hi Text pages can be flagged with the aid of marks (similar to tabs in a file).  
We provide a total of 100 marks. Up to 10 marks may be assigned to each programme position, as long as the total number of  
marks assigned does not exceed 100.  
You can set the marks on any desired pages and you can delete them again when they are no longer needed. If marks are set on a page,  
you can page from one to another by pressing the green key when HiText is active.

Infotext (Mark by mark paging)  
10. Hi Text  
The basic idea of Infotext is that you can quickly retrieve and read pages which have previously been marked as described on the two pre-  
vious pages of this manual. Once marks have been set, you can page through the related pages at any time by pressing a programmed  
function key  
Once the marks have been set, you can step through all of the marked pages from the current TV programme by pressing a programmed  
key (key A is programmed in the factory for this purpose).

Overview  
12. PIP function  
only for the PIP TV sets  
The PIP (picture-in-picture) function permits a second, smaller picture to be superimposed on the main picture on the screen. Both of  
these may be moving pictures.  
The small picture may come from another terrestrial or satellite programme position or from a video cassette recorder or a running cam-  
corder connected to the TV set. The picture below shows the various possibilities.  
The PIP function can thus, for example, be used to monitor a child’s bedroom with a camcorder while watching a TV programme.  
A SAT receiver can be installed only instead of one or both terrestrial receivers.

15. Connecting peripheral equipment  
Video recorders can be connected to the TV set via the antenna socket or one of the EURO sockets. We recommend that you use one  
of the EURO (Scart) sockets for this purpose, since only the EURO sockets have separate inputs and outputs for pictu-  
re and sound signals.  
Camcorders  
can be connected to the TV set with special cables (available from your dealer).  
The following connection diagram applies in principle to all of our products, although the various sockets may be located  
in different positions on different units.

Pay-TV decoder  
15. Connecting peripheral equipment  
This Pay-TV decoder decodes the scrambled signals of a Pay-TV station (e.g. Premiere) so that they can be displayed on the screen of the  
TV set. For connection of a Pay-TV decoder, you need a EURO (=Scart) cable in which all 21 pins are assigned.  
If you want to record Pay-TV programmes with a video recorder, we recommend that you connect the Pay-TV decoder directly to the video  
recorder. If this is not possible, the Pay-TV decoder can be connected to the EURO 1 or EURO 3 socket (see also „Connecting external  
devices“ on page 53).  
The following diagram shows two different connections of a Premiere decoder Typ G2

16.2 Maintenance and care  
Guarantee  
Repairs  
When you purchase the television, ensure that your dealer inclu-  
des the completed TV „passport“. It must specify the date, the  
dealer’s stamp and signature. Keep this document in a safe place,  
together with the invoice. Any claims under the warranty will only  
be accepted if these documents are submitted. Keep your TV  
clean and handle it with care.  
The TV should only be opened and repaired by quali-  
fied service personnel!  
CAUTION! DANGER!  
Consult your dealer when repairs are necessary.  
Cleaning the set  
Any unauthorized attempts to open or repair the TV may result in  
the guarantee becoming null and void.  
Always switch off the TV with the ON/OFF key before  
you clean it!  
Adequate shielding is provided against X-ray radiation (see  
approval certificate on the rear panel of the TV).  
Use a soft, dry or slightly moist cloth to clean the cabinet. Do not  
use any strong detergents as they may damage the finish and  
labels. Use a damp chamois leather to clean the screen.  
Changing the high voltage or fitting a different type of picture tube  
may cause an increased amount of X-ray radiation. Televisions  
modified in such a manner are no longer in keeping with this  
approval certificate and must not be used!  
Cleaning and polishing glossy surfaces  
Cleaning:  
- Wipe with a soft, anti-static duster.  
Polishing:  
- Use a soft duster and furniture polish.  
- Minor scratches can be removed with the aid of a normal car  
polish without abrasives (polish for paintwork in as-new conditi-  
on).

18. NEXTVIEW  
NEXTVIEW is an electronic programme magazine for all important  
TV stations. It is transmitted by various stations and also contains  
the programme information for other stations.  
Once the data have been collected, the TV set stores the program-  
me magazine in a special memory, where it is subsequently upda-  
ted at regular intervals if the TV set is not switched off with the  
main power switch. A TV set with two receivers does this during  
normal use, while a TV set with only one receiver does it at night,  
in standby mode.  
Your TV set will need about 20 minutes to collect the large quanti-  
ties of data for the first time.  
• A TV set with only one receiver:  
- must be left set to the NEXTVIEW programme position for at  
least 20 minutes or  
- will collect the data in standby mode during the night, starting  
at 2 AM.  
• A TV set with two receivers collects the data with the second  
receiver while you are watching another programme with the  
first receiver (see also the next page).

18. Collecting NEXTVIEW data  
In the future, the NEXTVIEW programme magazine will be transmitted by various stations, each of which will probably provide different  
amounts of information. You can thus select the programme magazine you like best.  
• On a TV set with only one receiver:  
Special notes:  
Select the NEXTVIEW programme position.  
After this, do not switch to another station for 20 minutes!  
Stations which are shown in the TV station table with an automatic  
logo (set automatically by the television) are also included in the  
programme magazine. Stations which transmit two different pro-  
grammes at different times of the day must be stored in two pro-  
gramme positions.  
• On a TV set with two receivers:  
The TV set attempts to collect the NEXTVIEW data with the  
second receiver.  
Stations whose logo has been set manually do not appear in the TV  
station table. Stations whose logo has been modified (e.g. blanks  
before the logo) manually are not updated after modification of the  
logo.  
The collection operation is interrupted or aborted if:  
- you switch from a terrestrial programme position to a SAT positi-  
on or vice versa;  
This permits you to exclude stations from which you do not wish to  
receive the data.  
- you call the PIP function;  
- you call Megatext;  
To include such a station in the programme magazine again, carry  
out the procedure „Direct channel entry“ (see Section 3) for this  
station. This causes an automatic logo to appear in the station  
table and the data for this station will be included in the program-  
me magazine the next time it is updated.  
- a recording is programmed in the menu „AV recording“;  
- a „timer“ recording is running or is due to start within the next  
hour;  
- the Megatext function „Subtitles“ and/or „News flash pages“ is  
active.

19. Data Logic  
What is Data Logic?  
1. Connecting a Data Logic video recorder to your TV set  
Until now, your TV set and your video recorder were two separate  
and independent devices.  
Connect the AV-1 socket of the video recorder to the Euro-1 socket  
of your TV set, using a fully connected Scart cable.  
With the new "Data Logic", we have created a dialogue system  
with which the TV set and the video recorder can exchange data.  
Data Logic will work only if there is a connection from  
the AV-1 socket to the Euro-1 socket.  
Video recorders of the Metz VC/VD/VE/VF Series with Data  
Logic offer the following functions:  
• Switch on the video recorder.  
2. Setting the TV set for Data Logic
