Set the time and date

When you preset your television to switch itself on or off at a particular time, or when you preset a timed recording of a programme on a connected video recorder, the clock ensures that these features are switched on and off at the right times.

The simplest way to set the clock is to

synchronise it with a tuned TV program’s teletext service via the CLOCK menu. If you choose to synchronise the clock, this is done with the teletext service offered by the TV program you are currently watching. If a teletext service is not available, you can set the clock manually.

To bring up the clock in the display, press

LIST repeatedly to display CLOCK* on Beo4 , then press GO. To remove the clock again, repeat the procedure.

Before synchronising the clock with a tuned program, make sure that the program you are watching offers a teletext service.

> Press

or to move through menu items. It is

only necessary to enter the time manually if

SYNCHRONISE is set to NO.

> Press GO to store your clock and calendar

options, or …

> … press EXIT to exit all menus without storing.

If the clock is not updated in the transition between summer and winter time, simply select the program with which you originally synchronised the clock, and the clock is updated.

Handling your television

– Avoid placing your television in direct sunlight

or direct artiﬁcial light, such as a spotlight, as this may reduce the sensitivity of the remote control receiver. Also if the screen is overheated, black spots may appear in the picture. These spots disappear again, once the television cools down to normal temperature.

– To avoid injury, use Bang & Olufsen stands or

brackets only.

– Make sure that the television is set up, placed

and connected in accordance with these instructions.

– The television is developed for indoor use in dr y,

domestic environments only. Use within a

temperature range of 10– 40°C (50 –105°F). – Do not place any items on top of the television. – Always place your television on a ﬁrm and

stable sur face. – Do not attempt to open the television. Leave

such operations to qualiﬁed service personnel.

If you have a motorised stand, leave enough space around the television to allow it to turn freely. The television can also be turned by hand.

If you are going to connect speakers, an audio system or any other equipment to the television, do not connect it to the mains yet!

The supplied mains cord and plug are specially

designed for the television. If you change the plug or in any way damage the mains cord, it will affect the TV picture adversely!

When connections are complete and the cables have been secured as described on this page, switch on the mains. A tiny, red light appears below the screen. The system is in standby mode and ready to be used. If your television is set up on its own, you can now tune in programs as explained in the chapter ‘First-time setup of your television’ on page 16.

Your television was designed to be left in standby

mode when not in use. Therefore, to facilitate remote control operation, it is essential that you do not disconnect it from the mains. The television can only be switched off completely, if you disconnect it from the mains.

IMPORTANT! All the cables must be fastened to the television using the enclosed cable tier as shown.

When you have made all the connections and fastened the cables, mount the cable cover again.

Loudspeaker setup – surround sound

If your television is equipped with the optional surround sound module, you can create a surround sound setup.

A surround sound setup fits easily into your living room. Let the picture determine your ideal listening and viewing position. You get the best sound experience in the area created by the speakers.

This chapter explains how to set up

speakers for surround sound, as well as how to make the adjustments necessary to get the best sound.

The three illustrations to the right show

examples of how you can place the television and speakers.

The following guidelines apply for all speaker

setups:

– If you have two different sets of speakers,

always use your most powerful speakers as front speakers.

– Place your speakers where you want them

before you connect them.

– Place your rear speakers on either side behind

your favourite listening position.

– You do not necessarily have to place the

speakers in the corners of the room.

– If you want to connect a BeoLab 2 subwoofer,

refer to the subwoofer’s own Guide.

Place external speakers

Connect Bang & Olufsen speakers and a BeoLab

2 subwoofer to the connection panel at the back of the television. The speakers must be Bang & Olufsen Power Link speakers.

To connect speakers…

> Use the cables enclosed with the speakers. > Connect the two front speakers to the sockets

marked FRONT.

> Connect the two rear speakers to the sockets

marked REAR.

> Connect the subwoofer to the socket marked

SUBWOOFER.

You can loop the signals from speaker to speaker

(as described in the Guide enclosed with your speakers), or you can connect each speaker to a socket. Longer cables and adaptors are available from your Bang & Olufsen retailer.

Remember to set the L–R– LINE switch on both the front and rear set of speakers to L or R (left and right channel) to indicate their position in each set. Set the left speakers to L and the right speakers to R.

When you have connected speakers in a surround sound setup to the television, you must perform a speaker calibration.

A calibration sound is produced alternately in each of the speakers you have connected in your surround sound setup. Your task is to adjust the sound level from all the connected speakers to match the sound level from the centre speaker. You can choose whether you want the sound sequence to occur automatically or manually.

Once you have performed your speaker calibration, you will only need to re-calibrate the speaker sound if you make changes to the setup, for example, if you move one or more of the speakers.

connect an ordinary aerial cable to the socket marked LINK TV OUT on the television. Then run the aerial cable to the RF Link Ampliﬁer and the Master Link cable to the link room. Follow the instructions enclosed with the link room equipment.

If an audio system is already connected to the Master Link socket and you wish to connect more equipment, the Master Link cable must be split in two and joined with the cable from the link room using a special junction box. Contact your Bang & Olufsen retailer for assistance.

Digital audio and video signals cannot be distributed from a main room television to the link room system.

The BeoLink system makes it possible

to distribute picture and/or sound to other rooms throughout the house.

For example, you can connect your television in the living room to another video system or set of speakers in another room, thereby making it possible to ‘move’ the picture or sound to other rooms.

If you have a BeoLink distribution system installed, you can either use your television in the main room, such as a living room, or in a link room, such as a study or bedroom.

Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to enter modulator settings.

the Beo4 display.

> Press a source button, such as TV

*In order to display LINK on Beo4, you must add it to

The Beo4 buttons give direct remote

control of a large number of television functions, and the Beo4 display gives you access to even more functions.

your television, and change the order in which these extra functions appear when you call them up.

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) – Environmental protection

The European Parliament and the Council of the

European Union have issued the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. The purpose of the Directive is the prevention of waste of electrical and electronic equipment, and to promote the reuse and recycling and other forms of recovery of such waste. As such the Directive concerns producers, distributors and consumers.

The WEEE directive requires that both manufacturers

and end-consumers dispose of electrical and electronic equipment and parts in an environmentally safe manner, and that equipment and waste are reused or recovered for their materials or energy. Electrical and electronic equipment and parts must not be disposed of with ordinary household refuse; all electrical and electronic equipment and parts must be collected and disposed of separately.

Products and equipment which must be collected for reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery are marked with the pictogram shown.

When disposing of electrical and electronic equipment by use of the collection systems available in your country, you protect the environment, human health and contribute to the prudent and rational use of natural resources. Collecting electrical and electronic equipment and waste prevents the potential contamination of nature with the hazardous substances which may be present in electrical and electronic products and equipment.

Your Bang & Olufsen retailer will assist with and

advise you of the correct way of disposal in your country.

Small products may not always be marked with

the pictogram in which case this is present in the instructions for use, on the guarantee certificate and printed on the packaging.

This product fulfils the conditions stated

in the EEU directives 89 /336 and 73 /23.
