For your safety  
For your own safety and to prevent unnecessary damage to your device,  
read and comply with the following safety instructions:  
Power supply  
The wrong voltage can damage the set. This equipment must only be  
connected to a mains power supply which has the same voltage and  
frequency as that specified on the rating plate; use the power cable  
provided. The mains plug of the TV set must be easily accessible so that  
the device can be disconnected from the mains at any time. When you  
unplug the mains plug, do not pull on the cable rather pull on the plug  
housing. The cable in the mains plug could be damaged and cause a  
short circuit the next time it is plugged in.  
Proper use and environmental conditions  
This TV set is intended exclusively for the reception and reproduction of  
video and audio signals and designed for the home and office. It may  
not be used in rooms with high humidity (e.g. bathrooms, saunas) or  
high dust concentration (e.g. workshops). The manufacturer‘s warranty is  
only valid for use in the specified permissible environment.  
Lay out the power cable in such a manner that it cannot be damaged.  
The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stepped  
on or exposed to chemicals; The latter also applies for the entire equip-  
ment. A power cable with damaged insulation can cause electrical shock  
and is a fire hazard.  
If the set is used outdoors then ensure that it is protected against mois-  
ture (rain, splashing water, or dew). High humidity and dust concentration  
cause creep currents in the set. This can cause electric shocks or fires.  
If you have brought the set into a warm environment from the cold, then  
wait for about 1 hour before switching it on to avoid formation of con-  
densation.  
Air circulation and high temperatures  
Do not place any objects filled with  
liquid or burning candles on the de-  
vice. Protect the set against dripping  
and splashing water.  
The vent slots on the rear panel of the set must always be kept free.  
Please do not place newspapers or cloths on/over the TV.  
At least 10 cm clearance must be  
left at the sides and top for air  
circulation if the TV set is placed or  
10 cm  
Never place the TV set in a position  
where it is exposed to vibrations. This  
can lead to material overload.  
hung in a cabinet or a shelf.  
10 cm  
10 cm  
Like any electronic device, your TV  
set requires air for cooling. Ob-  
struction of the air circulation can  
cause fires.  
When rotating the TV set there is a  
danger of crushing between the TV  
housing and the table stand. Makes  
sure that your fingers or other objects  
are not in this area when rotating the TV set.  
The set is suitable for different instal-  
lation solutions. See the instructions  
for assembly for the different instal-  
lation solutions.  
Transporting  
Only transport the device in vertical position. Grasp the device on the  
upper and lower edges of the housing.  
Stand the TV set with the table or floor stand only on a level, sturdy,  
horizontal base. Particularly ensure that the set does not protrude to the  
front when placed in or on pieces of furniture.  
The LCD screen is made of glass or plastic and can break if not handled  
properly.  
If the LCD screen is damaged and liquid crystal is leaking, wear rubber  
gloves for handling the TV set. If there is skin contact immediately wash  
thoroughly with water.  
Set up the device where it is not exposed to direct sunlight and where it  
is not exposed to additional warming through heating elements.  
Prevent metal items, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax, or similar items,  
from getting into the interior of the device through the vent slots in the  
rear panel. Such objects can cause short circuits in the set, which could  
possibly cause a fire.  
If something should get into the interior of the set then immediately  
unplug the mains plug of the device and contact customer service for  
more information.

For your safety  
Environmental protection  
Repairs and accessories  
Energy consumption  
Your TV set is equipped with an eco-standby power supply. In the standby  
mode, the power consumption drops to low power (see technical data on  
page 57). If you want to save even more energy then switch the device  
off with the mains switch. However note that in this case, EPG (Electronic  
Programme Guide) data will be lost, and it may be that programmed  
timer recordings cannot be executed via the TV device.  
Never remove the back of the TV set yourself. Only have your TV device  
repaired or serviced by authorized television technicians.  
Only use original accessories such as Loewe stands if possible (see Ac-  
cessories on page 58).  
Supervision  
If you activate the automatic dimming (see page 21) your TV picture  
adapts to the ambient brightness. This reduces the power consumption  
of the TV set.  
Do not allow children to use the TV set without supervision or to play in  
the immediate vicinity of the TV set. The set could tip over, be pushed  
off or pulled down from the stand surface and injure someone.  
Do not allow the switched-on TV set to run unattended.  
Packaging and box  
You have made a decision to purchase a high-quality technical product  
with a long service life. For disposal of the packaging, in accordance with  
national legislation we have paid a fee to a commissioned recycler to pick  
up the packaging from the dealer. Nevertheless we recommend keeping  
the original box and packaging material on hand so that the device can  
be transported with optimal protection if necessary.  
Volume  
Loud music can lead to ear damage. Avoid extreme volume especially  
over long periods and when using headphones.  
Cleaning  
Use only a soft, clean, damp cloth to clean the TV, screen and remote  
control, do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents.  
The set  
The EU directive 2002/96/EC regulates the proper way  
to recycle, handle and utilise used electronic devices.  
Old electronic devices consequently must be disposed of  
separately. Please do not dispose of this device in normal  
household trash!  
Connect TV sets with a high gloss surface may only be cleaned with a  
soft, clean antistatic cloth.  
Thunder storms  
You may return your used set free of charge at designated  
recycling centres or at your specialist dealer whenever you purchase a  
new, comparable set. Further details about returning (also for non-EU  
countries) are available from your local authorities.  
Pull out the mains plug and all connected antenna cables from the TV  
set in a thunderstorm. Overvoltage caused by lightning can damage the  
set via the antenna system, as well as via the mains power. The mains  
plug and all connected antenna cables should also be pulled out during  
long periods of absence.  
Batteries  
Note on the LCD screen  
The batteries supplied as initial equipment do not contain  
any pollutants such as cadmium, lead, or mercury.  
Used batteries should no longer be disposed of in the do-  
mestic waste according to the Battery Ordinance. Dispose  
of your batteries at no charge in the collection containers  
that are set up for this purpose in retail stores.  
The TV set you have purchased with LCD screen satisfies the most rigor-  
ous quality requirements and has been inspected relative to pixel errors.  
In spite of the utmost care in manufacturing the display, for technical  
reasons the possibility that some pixels will have defects cannot be 100%  
excluded. Please understand that these types of effects, as long as they  
are within the standard of specified limits, cannot be considered as a  
device defect in terms of the guarantee.

Change or confirm timer data if necessary (see page 44,  
"The direct way to record“).  
Data capture If you want to use EPG for analogue and digital stations,  
select on (for DVB + analogue). If you want to use EPG  
and only have DVB reception, select on (only for DVB).  
If you are not using EPG and therefore do not want to  
receive any EPG data, select off.  
Then a red dot will be displayed in front of this programme  
as identification.  
Red button: Deletes the already programmed recording  
of the red marked programme from the timer.  
After making changes in the EPG menu, or each time the  
power switch has been switched off, the EPG data must  
first be captured. To do this switch on the device and  
select (for analogue stations) the station that you have  
defined as provider, and let the TV set run for about 1  
hour with the selected station. Or switch the TV set to  
standby mode. After 2 minutes the display on the TV  
lights orange and the EPG data capture begins. When  
the data capture process has concluded the display will  
return to red. The data capture process is usually per-  
formed between 2:00 am and 5:00 am, when the TV  
set is in standby mode.  
If the timer data have been transferred to an external  
recorder, then the timer must also be deleted there.

packages. To get another range of stations, you can  
change the provider with the Provider selection. If the  
provider you are looking for is not in the list, then use the  
yellow button to perform a Provider search.  
Sorting The programmes can be sorted either according to their

If the picture from a connected device is to be displayed  
immediately on the TV set during playback, select yes. A  
switching voltage is allowed so that you do not have to  
switch over manually to see the picture of the connected  
device. (See the operating manual for the connected  
reproduction device.)  
Immediate  
playback  
If no picture is visible on the TV screen when playing the  
recorder, search for the recorder station automatically or  
set it manually.  
To make sure no "normal" TV stations are found in the  
station search, pull the antenna plug out of the recorder  
antenna input temporarily (the cable to the antenna  
system).  
When playing from Digital Link Plus devices, the picture is  
always displayed immediately, regardless of the setting.  
Select the AV socket to which the device of which you  
want to hear the digital sound is connected. Connect the  
digital output of the external device to the digital input  
of the TV set (see page 43). If a device with digital audio  
is not connected then select no.

by the connection wizard. This always offers the best quality and  
the greatest convenience, such as automatic switch over when  
playing from a connected device.  
ꢁꢀSelect Manal adjustment,  
OK to call other settings.  
For Channel enter "E30“.  
2. You are using the antenna connection between recorder and TV  
device. However this reduces the quality.  
Blue button: Start search.  
When you have found the recorder station:  
Red button: Overwrite station slot.  
Exit TV menu.  
Connecting an antenna to the DVD/video recorder  
If you want to receive and record analogue stations, it is useful to con-  
nect the recorder in with the antenna cable (as shown in the connection  
example on page 37 bottom right).  
Plug the previously removed antenna plug back in.  
If the antenna connection is also used for the playback because the  
devicers are not connected by EURO-AV cables, you have to search for  
the recorder station and save it in the TV set.  
If disturbances should now occur because a TV station  
is being broadcast on the same channel as the station  
of the recorder, then you must change the transmission  
channel on the recorder and scan for the recorder again  
on the TV set.

In order to be able to hear the digital sound of an external device con-  
nected to an AV input, an AV input can be assigned to the digital audio  
input socket AUDIO DIGITAL IN. When switching to this AV input, the  
digital audio signal applied to the AUDIO DIGITAL IN input is passed on  
to the upgradable integrated Dolby Digital Decoder and the digital audio  
output socket AUDIO DIGITAL OUT. You will then hear the digital sound of  
the assigned AV input instead of the analogue sound if available.

Glossary

Dolby Digital: Digital multi-channel audio. The digital standard for high  
quality home movie systems. The individual channels are broadcast sepa-  
rately in this standard. The three front channels right, left and centre, the  
two surround channels right and left and the external subwoofer channels  
are called a 5:1 signal. Another term for Dolby Digital is AC3.  
24p movie display: Modern movie makers produce movies with 24 (full)  
pictures per second (24p), conventional TV sets (and most DVDs) show  
50 (half) pictures per second. To play the movie, the original number  
of pictures is doubled and the film sped up. This is optimal for sports  
broadcasts but for quieter movies it distorts the picture quality.  
Digital Link HD: System for controlling devices via the HDMI connection  
of the Loewe TV set in the case of concealed installation.  
A
Dolby Pro Logic: Analogue multi-channel audio. Converts a Dolby-  
coded stereo signal into a surround sound. This usually contains four  
channels (front left, centre, front right, surround channel). A special  
subwoofer channel is not generated in this method.  
Active antenna: An antenna with its own power supply or amplification  
which can improve the reception is areas with a poor coverage.  
AV socket: Socket for audio and video signals.  
AV sources: Audio/video source.  
Dolby Pro Logic II: Analogue multi-channel audio. Dolby Pro Logic II is  
a further development of Dolby Pro Logic. This method generates a 6-  
channel spatial sound from a stereo or Pro-Logic signal (front left, centre,  
front right, surround left, surround right, subwoofer).  
AVS: Audio/video sockets on the side of the TV set (cinch and mini-DIN).  
Dolby Surround: Analogue multi-channel audio system that brings four  
audio channels down to two audio tracks with the aid of a matrix cod-  
ing.  
B
Band: Name for a transmission range.  
Dolby Virtual Speaker: The Dolby Virtual Speaker technology simulates  
the surround playback of a real 5.1-channel playback with only two  
speakers.  
C
CA module: The Conditional Access module contains the coding system  
and compares the transmitted code with the one on the Smart Card. If  
they match, the appropriate stations or programmes are decoded.  
DTS: Digital Theater Systems; Digital multi-channel audio.  
DVB-C/-S/-T: Digital Video Broadcasting stands for digital television.  
Technical DVB is the standardised process for transmitting digital content  
(television, radio, multi-channel audio, room sound, EPG, Teletext, and  
other supplemental services) through digital technology. C stands for  
transmission via cable, S for distribution via satellite and T for terrestrial  
or antenna distribution.  
Cinch cable: Cable for transmitting audio or video.  
CI slot: See Common Interface.  
Common Interface: The Common Interface (CI slot) is a standardised  
interface. By inserting suitable decoding modules (CA modules) and a  
Smart Card coded digital programmes can be used.  
DVD: Abbreviation of Digital Video Disk and later Digital Versatile Disk.  
Component IN: Connection in which the video signal is transmitted via  
three separate cinch connections. It is made up of the brightness signal  
"Y“ and the colour difference signals "Pb“ and "Pr“. YPbPr is the original  
analogue version of the digital YCbCr in which video data saved on the  
DVD as well as transmitted via satellite, cable or antenna in DVB are  
colour coded.  
DVD-Preceiver: Combi-device of DVD player and radio without integrated  
amplifier.  
DVI: Digital Visual Interface, is an interface for transmitting digital video  
and graphic data (without audio).  
Dynamic contrast ratio: Here the light intensity of the display is adapted  
in case of a high black portion in the picture. The so-called backlights  
are dimmed automatically and the contrast ratio increases temporarily,  
i.e. dynamically.
