if not even impossible.
The screen of your TV responds to the top quality require-
ments and it was checked in details for accidental faulty
pixels several times. Due to the technological properties of
the manufacturing process, it is not possible to eliminate the
existence of a small number of faulty points on the screen
for 100% (even with maximum care while production provided). These faulty pixels are not considered faults in terms of
guarantee conditions, if their extent is not greater than the
boundaries defi ned by DIN norm.

Important safety instructions
Important information regarding use of
video games, computers, captions and
other fi xed image displays.
The extended use of fi xed image program material can
cause a permanent “shadow image “ on LCD screen (this
is sometimes incorrectly referred to as “burnout to the
screen“ ). This shadow image is then permanently visible
on the screen in the backro-und. It is a partly irreversible
damage. You can avoid such a damage by respecting the
following instructions:
Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum
viewing level.
Do not display the fi xed image for a long period of time.
Avoid displaying of:
» Teletext time and charts,
» TV/DVD menu, e.g. DVD contents,
» In the „Pause“ mode (hold): Do not use this mode for a
long time, e.g. while watching a DVD or a video.
» Turn off the appliance if you are not using it.
Batteries
Observe the correct polarity when inser-
ting the batteries.
Do not expose batteries to high tempera-
tures and do not place them on locations
where the temperature might increase
quickly, e.g. near the fi re or on the direct
sunshine.
Do not expose batteries to excessive
radiant heat, do not throw them into the
fi re, do not disassemble them and do not try ato recharge
unrechargeable batteries. They could leak out or explode.
» Never use diff erent batteries together or mix new and
old ones.
» Dispose of batteries in an environmentally friendly way.
» Most of the EU countries regulate the disposal of batte-
ries by law.
Product disposal
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.

How to connect a signal booster
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.
As part of our ongoing development to reduce power consumption, we have added an extra function to this Television called
‘Ecohome’ (you will see this during the fi rst time installation set up). Power consumption using the Ecohome function is
approximately 15% lower than some other modes. The picture brightness is reduced using the Ecohome function. If this function is
not suitable for your viewing environment, you can select other modes as necessary. (Please note, ‘Professional’ mode is for optimum
default picture settings, however, power consumption is approximately 15% higher than ‘Ecohome’ mode)
Please refer to the user guide section ‘Picture settings’ in order to change the mode to one that maybe more suitable for your
environment. There is also a shortcut button on the remote control called ‘P-Mode’ should you wish to change to another mode.

the TV via HDMI, but I am
not receiving any pictures or
sound on my Television.
There are 2 options:
1) Use Digital COAX output connected to an external amplifi er/surround sound
system.
2) Use the 3.5mm headphone output and a 3.5mm to phono cable (available
separately) to connect to an amplifi er/surround sound system.
Some options are only available in certain sources, i.e. HDMI, PC/VGA. They are
unavailable in the other sources where they have no aff ect.
1) Check you are in an area that can receive Digital TV .
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 digital 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.
Complete a fi rst time installation, please refer to the set-up menu section of the
manual of how to do this.
In addition to connecting via SCART or AV input, you should connect the aerial cable
from the wall socket to your VCR/DVD Recorder and another aerial cable from the
VCR/DVD Recorder to the TV.
1) Ensure the TVs source is on HDMI.
2) Check your settings on your PS3 are as per the PS3 instruction manual.
Game ConsolesI have connected my Xbox

Component cables only provide HD Pictures. For the sound you will need to connect
the Red & White audio cables on the Xbox to the Red & White phono inputs on the
rear of the TV. Please refer to the ‘Connections’ pages.
Ensure the USB Memory Key is formatted to type FAT32.
If you wish to use a portable hard drive larger than 32GB, please note that it must
be formatted to the FAT32 fi le system in order to operate on this TV. Windows XP/
Vista computers are only capable of formatting up to 32GB, therefore, you will need a
software programme/utility to format larger hard drives. Please refer to the web site
for more information.
During Time Shift you cannot change the channel, access the menu or use the red
button.
Check the USB Memory Stick meet the minimum requirements of Read Speed - 20
