Specific precautions for DLP™TV sets
What is DLP™ technology?
Replacing the lamp
You have just bought a TV set equipped with DLP™ (Digital Light
Processing) technology.This new technology uses a special lamp, a
colour wheel and an optical semi-conductor comprising a huge
number of microscopic mirrors to provide you with exceptional
picture quality in a thin, lightweight design.
The lamp supplied with the TV set has a lamp life of a few
thousand hours in normal operating conditions.
ꢁIf you notice the following changes:
- The time the TV set takes to come on gets noticeably longer.
- The picture’s brightness decreases.
To ensure that you can enjoy your TV set’s unparalleled operation
for as long as possible, you should observe the following
precautions.
- When you switch the set on, there is sound and you can
change channels, but no picture is displayed and the indicator
on the front starts flashing red.This occurs several times.
EN
This means that the lamp’s power is running down. You then need
to buy a new one.
Switching yourTV set on and off
ꢁWhen you switch the TV set on, if no picture is displayed after 2
minutes, the lamp needs to be replaced.
As with all projection devices, your TV set contains a special lamp
which must heat up and cool down in the proper manner to
ensure its optimum operation for as long as possible.To prolong
the life of the lamp, you must observe the required heating up and
cooling down times.
Choose the exact same type and follow the
instructions provided in the “Lamp replacement
instructions” leaflet (the right lamp type is indicated in the
help text for the Lamp brightness option in the Lamp &
Position menu, see page 14).
ꢁTo switch the TV set on, press the on/off button under the front
panel of the set.The picture takes up to 40 seconds to display. If
no picture is displayed after 2 minutes, it is possible that the
lamp needs to be replaced (see further below).
Important:

- Even after the fan has stopped, the lamp’s temperature still
remains very hot for about 60 minutes and can cause burns.
The fan continues to run for about another two minutes to cool
the lamp down.

To avoid any damage to the lamp, you should not move the TV set
Important: NEVER unplug the set when the fan is running.

ꢀThe Learning feature
The Learning feature completes the programming procedure described on page 4, as it
enables you to record the functionality of a specific button from the original remote
control to one of the TV’s remote control buttons.
Notes:
- Before using the Learning feature, make sure this TV’s remote control is programmed to control
other appliances you have connected to the TV. Programming the remote control erases all
learned commands for that appliance mode.
-You cannot record a learned function to the following buttons on the TV’s remote control: TV,
VCR, DVD, AUX, SAT, AMP, EXIT, and LIGHT.
EN
- The remote control functions are recorded (learned) by sending infrared (IR) signals: this
operation should be carried out in a dimly lit room to avoid interference. Make sure the TV’s
remote and the original remote are no more than 5 cm apart, with the Infrared (IR) transmitter
of the original remote facing the IR receiver on the top of the TV’s remote.
- The learned buttons are mode specific—if you add a button function from your DVD player’s
remote control, you must press the DVD button first before the learned function will work (in TV
mode, the button where you’ve stored the learned function will continue to work as it always
has).
- Certain remote controls do not support the use of the Learning function.
Adding a Learned Function
1. On the TV remote, press and hold the appliance button that applies to the function you
will be adding (DVD, VCR, SAT, AMP, or AUX).The appliance button lights up. Press and

Getting started
Switching on
Follow the instructions on this page on how to switch on your TV set and the remote
control before going on to the following pages that describe how to use the remote
control and the channel set-up procedure.
1. Insert two LR06 or AA batteries in the remote control.
Precautions on using batteries:
- Only use the battery types specified.
- Make sure you use the correct polarity.
- Do not mix new and used batteries.
EN
- Do not use rechargeable batteries.
- Do not expose batteries to excessive heat, throw them in a fire, recharge them or try to open
them, as this could cause them to leak or explode.
- Remove the batteries from the remote control if you are not using it for a long period of time
(several weeks).
220 - 240V ~ 50 Hz
2. Connect the power cable FIRST to the television, THEN to a mains socket.
Your TV set should only be connected to a 220 - 240 V ~ 50 Hz AC supply.
It must not be connected to a DC supply. If the plug is detached from the cable, do not, under
any circumstances, connect it to a mains socket, as there is a risk of electric shock.
Mains socket in
continental Europe
Equipment for the UK and Ireland is supplied with a mains cable fitted with a moulded plug.
This plug contains safety components and must not be replaced by one sold by general
retailers. It is fitted with a fuse that protects your television. If your set has stopped
working, the fuse may have blown. If it has, replace it with an identical ASTA or BSI certified
(BS 1362) 5-amp fuse.
3. Connect the outside aerial or cable network to the TV ANT socket inside the front
panel of the TV set (see page 24).
The aerial socket (75 Ohms - VHF / UHF / cable) can be used for connecting an external aerial
or other equipment fitted with a modulator (video recorder, satellite receiver, etc.).
We recommend that you do not connect other equipment (video recorder, satellite receiver, etc.)
to your TV set to begin with, so as not to complicate the set-up procedure with the additional
steps involved. Connect them when you have finished setting up the channels by referring to
page 24 of this manual.
If you have a NexTView Link video recorder (refer to the connecting diagram at the end of this
manual, inside the cover), you must connect it to the AV1 socket of the TV set using a Scart cable
before proceeding to the initial set-up.
4. Switch the TV on by pressing the on/off button A under the front panel of the TV set.
The TV set takes up to 40 seconds to come on.
Note:The first time you switch on the television, the language selection menu appears.
Important: read carefully the sections “Specific precautions for DLP™
TV sets” on page 3 and “Switching theTV set on and off” on page 10,
which give a detailed description of the procedure for switching theTV
set on and off.
You will find a description of how to use the remote control on page 4.Then go to page 8
for information on the initial set-up, or to page 9 for information on manual set-up (if the
channels have already been set up on your TV).
Front panel
Note: Before connecting other devices to the AV sockets, carry out the initial channel set-up
(described on the next page) in order to avoid any problems with equipment selection.
Please respect the environment and the relevant regulations. Before you dispose of
batteries (or accumulators), ask your dealer whether they require special recycling and if
he is able to take them back.

ꢀConnecting headphones
Use the relevant socket on the front of the TV set to connect headphones or stereo
earphones. Refer to page 12 on how to adjust the headphone volume.
Connecting active speakers
The audio CINCH sockets inside the front panel of the television can be used to connect
active speakers (with a built-in amplifier) replacing the television’s built-in speakers.
Left and right speakers: connect the left speaker to the CINCH L socket and the right
speaker to the CINCH R socket.
Subwoofer: connect the subwoofer to the SUB-WFR socket.
Connecting an amplifier
You can connect an amplifier and 2 speakers to replace your television’s side speakers:
Connect your television’s left L and right R CINCH sockets to the amplifier’s L and R
inputs. Configure the set as follows (see page 12):

Sound type: Stereo
Sound mode: Normal
Set menu
Left/Right speakers: External
Subwoofer: None
SW
The television’s side speakers and subwoofer are now disabled.Adjust the volume using the
amplifier.
Connecting a video recorder
To obtain optimum picture quality, use a SCART cable. However, you can also connect a
video recorder to the television using the aerial socket.
Refer to the diagram on the inside cover at the end of the manual, which illustrates how
this is done.
If you connect a video recorder only via the aerial socket (without using the SCART
socket), switch it on and play a tape.
Then use the Auto-update option of the Installation menu to search for the video
recorder signal (refer to the Manual set-up section).
If you connect a video recorder via the aerial socket, you should assign channel 99 to it in
order to improve the picture quality when tapes are being played and in pause mode.
However, we recommend you connect your video recorder via the SCART socket, as it
provides better picture and sound quality.

About NexTView Link
NexTView Link is an “intelligent” link, which can be used to set up channels and as an easy
way to set programmes for recording on a video recorder with the NexTView Link
function or similar (Easy Link, Smart Link, Megalogic, etc.) from a television already set up.
The video recorder should be connected to the AV1 socket using a Scart AVLink cable.
Important: If you’ve purchased your video recorder before 1997, it may not support the
record feature.
Setting up channels
The NexTView Link can be used to automatically download the terrestrial and cable
channels already stored in the television to the video recorder.They will be arranged in the
same order on both items of equipment.
Refer to the instructions for your video recorder to find out how this is done.
Setting a programme to record
The NexTView Link function can also be used as an easy way of setting a programme to
record from Program Info on your television (see paragraph “Recording a programme” on
page 22).
Immediate recording
The NexTView Link function can be used to record what you are currently watching.You
simply press the relevant button on the video recorder remote control (usually REC) and
the recorder will automatically switch to the same channel as the television and start
recording.
Refer to the instructions for your video recorder to find out the relevant button to press
and for more information on the subject.
