Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the

Warnings  
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or damage to the television, do not expose it to  
dust, rain or moisture, or place any objects filled with liquids on or near the television.  
Do not place the television in a confined space, ensure that nothing can obstruct the  
ventilation openings at the rear of the television.

Dispose of this television and any components including batteries in an environmentally  
friendly manner. If in doubt, please contact your local authority for details of recycling.  
Safety  
For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a fused moulded 3 pin mains plug. Should  
the fuse need to be replaced, ensure that any replacement is of the same amperage and  
approved with the BSI mark.  
Never try and replace the mains plug unless you have adequate qualifications and are  
legally authorised to do so. In the event that a replacement Mains cable is required,  
contact the manufacturer for a suitable replacement.  
Never use the television if it is damaged in any way.  
Always place the television on a flat level surface avoiding anywhere which may be subject  
to strong vibration.  
Ensure the television is not placed on top of the power cable as the weight of the  
television may damage the cable and cause a safety hazard.  
Never place mobile phones, speakers or any other device which may cause magnetic or  
radio interference with the television. If interference is apparent, move the device causing  
the interference away from the television.  
Maintenance

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the  
appliance is operated.  
Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers,  
Captions or Other Fixed Image Displays  
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD  
panel.  
This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fixed image. This type  
of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:  
1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.  
2. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.  
3. Turn the power off when not in actual use.  
Examples of images that you need to watch out for are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):  
TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos and pricing displays-especially if they are  
bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.  
Time Displays  
Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long period of time  
TV/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disk content  
Pause Mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode for long periods of time, e.g. When watching DVDs or  
videos.  
Important - Once ‘shadow image/screen burn’ occurs, it will never disappear and is not repairable under  
warranty.  
How do I dispose of this product?  
UK: Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Separate  
store for details.  
ROI: Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Separate  
disposal facilities exist. Check with your Local Authority or retailer for recycling advice.  
Batteries  
Observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries.  
Do not use different types of batteries together or mix old and new batteries.  
Dispose of batteries in an environmentally friendly way.  
Certain regions may regulate the disposal of batteries.  
Please consult your local authority.

Getting Started - Initial Set Up  
GETTING STARTED  INITIAL SET UP  
1) Using the RF cable supplied, connect the TV  
to the TV Aerial wall socket (Fig A)  
2) Connect the power cable to the Electrical  
outlet (Fig B)  
Fig B  
Fig A  
3) Switch on the television using the  
power on/off switch located on the rear  
of the TV.  
4) Insert the batteries supplied into the  
Remote control and press the Standby  
button to power on the TV  
Power on/off  
5) You will now be welcomed with the initial  
set-up screen.  
6) After tuning the following screen will  
appear.  
If it does not appear, on the remote control,  
please press [MENU] then 8-8-8-8 and the  
menu will appear.  
Press OK on the remote control and tuning  
will start.  
If you are missing channels, the reason for this is likely to be signal strength, you should  
consider connecting signal booster and re-tuning the TV.  
Tip: If the TV finds some, but not all, of the Digital channels, the TV is functioning correctly but the  
signal being received is not strong enough. (The signal strength needs to be above 85% - you can see the  
signal strength the TV is receiving when you change channels/ programmes) you will need to increase  
the signal reception in order to receive all of the channels available. The most economical way to do  
this is by purchasing and connecting a ‘signal booster’ in between the TV and the TV aerial socket. If this  
does not solve the problem, you will need to upgrade the TV aerial to a digital hi-gain compatible aerial

USB Record  
USB RECORD  DIGITAL/FREEVIEW MODE  
USB RECORD – DIGITAL/FREEVIEW MODE  
Built into this television is a USB record facility. This function is available in Digital/Freeview mode when  
used in conjunction with a compatible USB memory stick or USB Hard drive. The benefits of this are as  
follows:  
Pause live TV/Radio and then playback, fast forward and rewind (up to live TV)  
One button record, if you decide you want to record the current programme  
Easy programmable recording from the 7 day TV Guide  
Record TV/Radio and watch/listen back on your computer/laptop  
Due to the nature of the product, it is necessary to use a high speed USB memory stick (as the TV reads  
from and writes to the memory stick at the same time, some memory sticks may not be suitable)  
You can purchase high speed memory sticks from some computer stores, alternatively, we have a selection  
of tested and compatible memory sticks available to purchase directly from the helpline/web site. These  
are available in 4GB, 8GB and 16GB. (Please check the web site/helpline for latest specifications and prices)  
Minimum Specification - USB Memory Stick  
Read Speed  
Write Speed  
20 MB/s (Mega Byte Per Second)  
6 MB/s (Mega Byte Per Second)

of this user guide.  
Setting up the USB Memory Stick  
1) Insert the USB Memory Stick into the USB Port located on the side of the television.  
The TV will now test the speed of the memory  
2) You will then have the option to start time shift  
Tip: If the TV does not recognise the USB Memory Stick, please check that it is formatted to FAT32.  
Pause Live TV/Radio (Time Shift)  
Pausing Live TV/Radio is very simple.  
- Press the play/pause button and the television will pause and the live  
content will be recorded. To resume watching press play/pause again.  
- Press fast forward to go forward in a recording (i.e. to skip adverts)  
- Press fast rewind to go back in a recording (i.e. if you fast forwarded too  
far)  
Tip: When you switch the TV to standby or change channel the Time Shift memory is wiped. To restart  
time shift you must press play/pause button.  
One Button Record  
At any point in time you may decide to record the current channel that you are watching. To do this you  
need to press the [REC] button.  
Tip: This television contains one TV tuner, therefore it can only record the channel you are watching or  
record one channel while the television is in standby mode.  
Note: USB record function is only avilable in Digital/Freeview TV/Radio mode. Due to copyright laws and  
illegal copying/recording it is not possible to record to/from any other input/output source.

2) Check you are using an aerial that is able to receive a good digital  
signal. In most cases, you will need an outdoor digital hi-gain/wideband  
aerial. In areas that have excellent Freeview coverage, you may be able  
to use a loft type aerial but it is highly likely that you will also need to  
connect a booster between the back of the TV and the TV aerial wall  
socket. Unfortunately, to receive a good enough digital signal, it is not  
possible to use a portable/indoor type aerial. This may change once the  
analogue signal is switched off in 2012 and the Digital signal strength is  
increased.

DIGITAL SWITCHOVER  
Television in the UK is going digital, bringing us all more choice and new services. Starting late 2007 and  
ending in 2012, television services in the UK will go completely digital, TV region by TV region.  
How the switchover affects your TV equipment.  
Your new TV has a digital tuner built in, which means it is ready to receive the Freeview signal by simply  
connecting it into your aerial socket (you can check if you can get digital TV through your aerial now or  
whether you will have to wait until the switchover at www.digitaluk.co.uk)  
When the TV switchover happens in your area, there are at least two occasions when you will need to  
re-tune your TV in order to continue receiving your existing TV channels and also to pick up new ones.  
Digital UK, the body leading the digital switchover, will advise you when you need to retune during the  
switchover.  
How to retune.  
Retuning your TV is a very quick and simple process. We recommend that you retune every few months to  
ensure you are receiving the very latest TV and radio channels that are broadcast.  
1) On the remote control press [MENU] followed by 8 - 8 - 8 - 8 (so the number 8 button four times)  
2) The First Time Installation menu will appear. Press [OK] and tuning will take place.  
For help and support regarding the digital switchover, please contact Digital UK:  
Telephone: 08456 50 50 50 (calls charged at local call rate, approx 3p per minute daytime or 1p per minute  
evenings from a BT landline)
