1. Installation
• Take care that no bright artificial light or sunshi-
ne falls directly on the screen. This could cause
reflections which have a negative effect on the
brilliance of the picture.
• The optimum viewing distance is about five
times the screen diagonal dimension. For TV
sets with a 70 cm screen, it is thus about 3.5
metres.
• The antenna cable and any other components
(such as a video recorder) connected between
the antenna socket in the wall and the TV set
must comply with the European standard
EN 60966-2-4.
• There may be no magnetic fields in the immedi-
ate vicinity of the TV set. Keep loudspeaker
boxes well away from the set.
• The antenna cable used for connecting the TV
set must have a screening attenuation of at least
75 dB.
• The use of non-approved cables will invalidate
the operating permission for the TV set.
• For details of how to connect peripheral devices
such as video recorders, DVD players, etc. press
the „INFO“ key to call the help function, select
„Connecting AV devices“ with the cursor and
press „OK“ to display the information.

2. Safety notes
• Always place the monitor on a solid,
stable surface.
• Lightning can damage electrical equip-
ment. A lightning flash entering the
power cable or the aerial cable can
damage the TV set even if it is swit-
ched off. You should therefore discon-
nect the power cable and aerial cable
from their outlets or from the TV set in
the case of a thunderstorm.
• If a cold TV set is moved to a warm
room, always allow any condensation
on the screen to evaporate before swit-
ching it on.
• The TV set is intended for use in a dry
room. If, in exceptional circumstances,
you use it outdoors, take care that is
protected against moisture (rain, splas-
hed water, dew).
• The monitor may be opened and
repaired only by a qualified person.
CAUTION! HIGH VOLTAGES CAN KILL !
• TV sets need adequate ventilation.
Never cover the openings on the rear
of the set with curtains, doilies, new-
spapers, etc. Also take care that the
slits in the bottom of the case are freely
accessible so that the intake of the
cooling air is not hindered.
If repairs should be necessary, consult
your local dealer.
• Always switch off the TV set before cle-
aning it.
• Do not hold the remote control directly
in front of your eyes and press a but-
ton. The remote control emits infrared
radiation!
• If you place the TV set in a wall unit,
leave sufficient space on all sides for
the circulation of cooling air.
• Do not place rechargeable batteries in
the battery compartment of the remote
control.
Use only two 1.5 V dry batteries of the
type LR03/AM4/AAA (Micro).
• Do not place the TV set close to a radi-
ator, since this would effect adequate
cooling.
• Do not place
- burning candles or
• The TV set is intended only for the
reception and reproduction of picture
and sound signals.
vessels containing liquids (vases, etc.)
on top of the TV set, since any hot wax
or water dripping into the set could
cause serious damage to the electronic
components and could also jeopardize
the electrical safety of the set.
• The TV set may be operated only from
a mains voltage of 230 VAC,
50/60 Hz.
Australia: 240 VAC.
• Lay the power cable so that nothing
stands on it and no-one can trip over
it.

3. The Remote Control
The remote control sends commands to
the TV set by means of an infrared sig-
nal. You must point it towards the TV set
when using it. Note that the remote con-
trol may interfere with the operation of
other devices which use infrared signals
(such as infrared headphones).

Sunlight falling directly on the TV set
may interfere with the operation of the
remote control, since the TV set cannot
detect the infrared signals from the
remote control under these conditions.
The TV set must be switched on with the
main power switch before it can be con-
trolled with the remote control.

17.2 Recording control
Application example:
You wish to record a programme received via
DVB-T. The programme starts at 22:45 hours,
ends at 23:40 hours and is broadcast on ITV.
Set up a "manual timer" as described in Section
18, "Special Functions 2, Timer Overview" or set
a timer with the aid of the EPG as described in
Section 22.3 “Using EPG, Recording a Program-
me". The timer recording does not use VPS.
Set the lead time to 3 minutes and the overrun
time to 10 minutes.
At the programmed start time minus the pro-
grammed lead time of three minutes, the TV set is
either:
- switched on from the standby state (red LED
lights) with the programme position for ITV selec-
ted, whereby the screen remains dark but the
programme is sent via the EURO socket to your
recorder, or
- switched to the programme position for ITV if it is
already switched on.
At the programmed end of the recording (at
23:40 hours) the programme position for ITV
remains selected for the programmed overrun time
of 10 minutes.
It is not possible to switch to another pro-
gramme position during the programmed
lead and overrun times.

20. EPG
EPG is an Electronic Program Guide containing
programme information for all important stations.
It is broadcast by various stations (in Germany by
Kabel1 and RTL 2) and also includes the data for
the other TV stations in the country.
The TV set needs about 30 minutes to initially
download the large amount of data.
• On TV sets with two tuners, the EPG data are
downloaded with the aid of the second tuner
(see the next page). Once the data have been
downloaded, the TV set stores the EPG in a spe-
cial memory.
The EPG in this memory is updated regularly, pro-
viding the TV set is not switched off with the main
power switch.
• On TV sets with only one tuner:
- the EPG programme position must remain selec-
ted for at least 30 minutes, or
- the data are downloaded at night (02:30 -
03:00) when the TV set is in standby mode.
Not possible with an external receiver !

Automatic zoom
When the automatic zoom function is active, pro-
grammes broadcast in "widescreen format" (such
as those in the 16:9 format) are expanded to fill
as much of the screen as possible.
If this function is inactive, the format of such pro-
grammes is not adjusted automatically.
AV programme position
AV devices have one or more connection sockets,
depending on the model. The designations of the-
se sockets are marked on the device (e.g. AV1).
On the AV device, you can select which socket
you want to use. The selected socket is shown on
the display of the AV device (e.g. A1 for socket
AV1).
Code
The settings for the childlock function are protec-
ted by a four-digit code: you can enter any des-
ired code, but you should note it for future use. If
you have forgotten your code, please consult your
local dealer.
Comb filter 2)
In conventional TV sets, the brightness signal is
separated from the colour information with the aid
of a frequency filter.
However, such a filter cannot prevent a certain
amount of the brightness signal from being mixed
with the colour signal, causing interference (so-
called cross-luminance interference). Similarly a
certain amount of the colour signal is mixed with
the brightness signal (so-called cross-colour inter-
ference). The comb filter does away with these
shortcomings. Just like a comb, it extracts the
colour signal (which is carried in the gaps of the
brightness signal) without affecting the bandwidth
of the brightness signal.
2) Possible only on sets equipped with this
function.

The result is a TV picture with the highest possible
resolution, without any cross-colour or cross-lumi-
nance interference.
CTI
The CTI (Colour Transient Improvement) circuit is
an electronic circuit which provides a perfect tran-
sition between neighbouring areas of different
colours on the screen and prevents "smudging" of
the colours. This function is effective for both TV
signals and signals from AV devices.
Forced mono
It may happen that your TV set switches to stereo
mode although the programme you are watching
is not broadcast with stereo sound. This is normal-
ly due to the local reception conditions. If you set
the selected programme position to "forced mono"
all programmes received at this programme posi-
tion are reproduced with mono sound.
Noise reduction
This function allows you to improve the picture
quality of "snowy" pictures which result from poor
reception conditions. Various levels of noise
reduction can be selected and the settings can be
made separately for each programme position.
Panorama 2)
The panorama function can be used to expand
"normal" TV programmes broadcast in the 4:3
format to fill the full width of a 16:9 screen. This is
done by expanding the picture width accordingly.
Picture position, vertical
With widescreen films, subtitles are sometimes
transmitted in the black area at the bottom of the
screen. You can move the picture upwards on the
screen to ensure that these subtitles remain visible.
2) Possible only on sets equipped
with this function.

Progressive scan
This function serves to improve the apparent
sharpness and contrast, particularly for films play-
ed back from DVD players connected via YUV
(see page 68). In normal TV mode, the progressi-
ve scan should be set to "Automatic".
Rotation 2)
With this function, you can compensate for the
effects of the Earth's magnetic field, which may
cause the picture to be "tilted" (horizontal lines in
the picture are not parallel with the edges of the
screen).
Standard values
The standard values are the settings (such as
brightness, sound volume, colour, etc.) which are
the same for all programme positions.
Spatial sound
This function can be used to create an artificial
stereo effect for programmes with sound in mono.
Stereo wide
For stereo broadcasts, the distance between the
speakers can be increased artificially in order to
achieve a wider stereo effect.
SRS-WOW 2)
WOW is an audio system developed by SRS
Labs, Inc. which provides a unique listening expe-
rience. The sound becomes fuller and the bass is
deeper and more voluminous.
Activation of the WOW function allows you to
hear a lot of spatial and environmental audio
information which is lost in normal stereo mode.
In normal TV mode, the WOW function can be
preselected by pressing the yellow key

Tone settings
The tone can be set to either "Normal" or
"Speech". In the setting "Speech", the bass and
treble components of the sound signal are set to
make speech as easy to understand as possible.
The setting "Normal" is recommended for music
programmes.
VCR
The VCR function provides an optimal picture qua-
lity when playing back recordings from tape devi-
ces such as camcorders or video recorders.
Volume correction
The various stations broadcast their sound at diffe-
rent volumes. The TV set can automatically com-
pensate for these differences in the volume. This
function remains active even if the standard sound
settings are recalled.

41. Basic differences between analog terrestrial
reception and DVB-T
Information for our dealers and interes-
ted customers.
If two of the numbers in a block are
changed, the receiver can detect that an
error has occurred, but any attempt to
correct this would have the wrong result.
In order to understand how the beha-
viour of DVB-T receivers differs from that
of the analog terrestrial receivers used
until now, two things are important: digi-
tal transmission and the simultaneous
broadcasting network.
Example:
If the information 0 is encoded as 000
and is received as 101, the receiver
would assume that this should have been
111 and will then decode it, incorrectly,
as 1.
Digital transmission
A DVB transmitter does not transmit only
a single programme, but a set of pro-
grammes – normally six to eight. The
information for each programme – the
picture, the sound and teletext – is con-
verted into a digital format, i.e. into
numerical values which are grouped
together in packets. The packets of the
various programmes are then transmit-
ted sequentially in a so-called transport
stream.
To sum up:
several programmes are transmitted by
a single transmitter in the form of digital
packets. Additional information is trans-
mitted to permit complete correction of a
certain number of transmission errors.
Simultaneous broadcasting
network
For DVB-T, the programmes are not
transmitted on a modulated carrier fre-
quency; instead, one channel with a
width of 8 MHz contains 8,192 individu-
al carrier frequencies.
Further information which permits the
receiver to detect and correct any errors
which occur during transmission is
added to this transport stream.
Example:
If the information 0 or 1 is to be trans-
mitted, the 0 could be encoded as 000
and the 1 as 111. If one of the three
digits numbers is falsified during trans-
mission, i.e. the receiver receives, for
example, 010 instead of 000, the recei-
ver can decide that the presence of at
least two zeros indicates that the inten-
ded information value was 0 and, cor-
respondingly, that at least two ones indi-
cates the information 1.
Some of the signals reaching the receiver
come directly from the transmitter, others
are signals which have been reflected
from obstacles in the vicinity and some
are even those transmitted by other
transmitters. Normally, these signals
reinforce each other. In extreme cases,
however, if they are out of phase and
have the same amplitude, the signals
can cancel each other out:
90

41. Basic differences between analog terrestrial
reception and DVB-T
The signals may also have come from a
different transmitter.
Addition
In such cases, the reception quality
depends not only on the actual signal
strength, but also on how many carrier
frequencies are cancelled out.
Such problems can often be corrected by
Cancellation
adjusting the position and the alignment
of the antenna. In general, moving the
antenna a few centimetres to one side,
or tilting or turning the antenna, can
improve reception far more than the use
of an additional antenna amplifier.
In most cases, only a few of the 8,192
carrier frequencies will be fully cancelled
out and the information which is lost can
be reconstructed by the error-correction
function of the receiver. Reception beco-
mes impossible only if very strong reflec-
tions cause the loss of too many carrier
frequencies.
Simply moving the antenna a few
centimetres to one side can often
cause the signals to be added
together instead of cancelling each
other out.
ꢀ
The phase relationship between two sig-
nals depends on the path taken by these
signals on their way to the receiver.
If a rooftop antenna is used, almost all of
the signals reach the receiver by the
same path.
If an indoor antenna is used, the signals
reaching the receiver may have been
reflected from
- objects outside the building,
- objects such as thermally insulated
windows (coated with metal films),
- reinforced-concrete parts of the
building,
- persons in the vicinity or
- the furnishings of the room.
