Initial Settings

When the TV is first turned on, it goes into the initial

settings mode. Follow the instructions on the screen

display to make the initial settings.

Note: If the TV does not go into the initial settings mode this is because your

TV has already been turned on for the first time. (Perform the factory settings

with “INSTALLATION” (see page 15) in the DTV menu and “AUTO STORE”

(Analogue) (see page 20) in the PROGRAMME menu.)

during the process.

HINT: Depending on the reception conditions in your particular area, you

may find that the list of channels found includes one or more repeated

names. This is because the receiver may detect and store some channels,

including those it cannot receive clearly, from adjacent areas alongside the

strong channels from a transmitter nearby. This is not a problem and the

weaker channels can be deleted from the receiver later, as described in -

After APS is finalized, a programme list will appear on

the screen. In the programme list you will see the

programme numbers and names assigned to the

programmes.

If you do not accept the locations and / or the programme

names of programmes, you can change them in Pro-

Tips

If the TV suddenly stops responding, disconnect the

power cord of the TV from the AC outlet. Connect it to

the AC outlet again to turn on the TV. If the TV returns

to a normal state, it is not a failure. If this does not

work, switch off, remove the mains plug and call the

service personnel; never attempt to repair it yourself.

Can not turn the TV on?

Check that TV/VCR/DVD switch is set to TV position.

TV may go to stand-by mode when you turn the TV on

soon after you turn the TV off. If you can turn the TV on

again, it is not a problem.

Bad picture (in digital mode)

Can not turn the TV off?

Although this TV can receive both Digital terrestrial broad-

casting (DVB-T) andAnalogue terrestrial broadcasting,

you may not be able to receive DVB-T depending on the

area in which you live.

Check that TV/VCR/DVD switch is set to TV position.

Care of the Screen

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do

not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the TV

screen coating layer.

If the picture freezes a lot, or block effect is seen fre-

quently on screen, probably there is a problem with your

reception.

Please contact customer services of your service pro-

vider if you are a subscriber.

Colours of image on screen are abnormal

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV

set or house aerial located too close to the loudspeak-

ers, non-earthed audio equipment or neon lights, etc. ?

Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures

or ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the pic-

ture quality by changing the direction of the aerial.

aerial? If you are in doubt, consult your dealer.

No Image means that your TV is not receiving any

transmission. Have you pressed the correct buttons

on the remote control? Try once more.

Sound

the sound, pressing “ ” button?Are external speakers

connected to the TV?

Sound is coming from only one of the speakers. Is the

balance set to one direction extreme? See Sound

perhaps the batteries are exhausted. Replace the bat-

teries.
