1 Please read the safety and care information at the back of this booklet before you
connect this television to the electricity supply . Then follow steps 2 to 5.
2 Make the connections
The aerial
Connect the aerial lead to the ANTg socket at the back of the television. You will need a good quality aerial to receive teletext and nicam sound.
Other equipment
If you have a video recorder you will need to connect the aerial lead to the video recorder and connect the aerial output lead from the video recorder to the television aerial socket.
Information about connecting aerials and other equipment is given in 'Connecting other equipment' on page 21.
The scart A V sockets
This television has two special interconnecting sockets called 'scart' (AV). You don't have to use these straight away, but using scart cables gives you the best picture and sound quality and can cure some picture interference problems. And you will only get stereo sound from other equipment if it is connected with a stereo scart cable. If you have other equipment with scart sockets please read 'Connecting other equipment' on page 21.
3 Put the batteries in the remote control
Press the edge of the catch at the top of the battery cover towards the cover
and lift off the cover.
Put in the two batteries that came with your television (size AAA or LR3)
Make sure that the (+) and (-) marks on the batteries agree with the (+) and (-)
marks inside the battery compartment.
Replace the cover by engaging the two tabs at the bottom and pressing down
the end with the catch until it clicks into place.
Throw away old batteries carefully. Do not put them on a fire.
Keep within 30 degrees and 7 metres of the remote sensor.
Bright sunlight and some fluorescent light falling on the remote sensor may
stop the remote from working properly.
4 Supply power
Plug your television into the mains supply (220 to 240 volts, 50Hz).
5 Switch on

The on-screen display asks you to wait and you will see the frequency changing ('freq'). 'Program' and 'store to' numbers increase as each station is stored in the television's memory.
When the ATSS process has finished you will see the edit menu which shows you what program numbers the stations have been stored under. You can use the edit menu to re-arrange the programs and so on, but if all is correct just press the MENU button or wait a few seconds until the edit menu goes off.
Your television might not name a satellite receiver or
video recorder properly, so you will need to change the name yourself using the edit menu.
Sometimes the ATSS process will not store the
best quality signal on the program number you would like, so you will see a grainy picture or a distorted picture. You will need to change the program number using the edit menu.
If you need to change anything using the edit
menu, please read 'Editing programs'.

Picture interference from other equipment
If you have used the aerial lead to connect a video recorder, satellite receiver or other piece of equipment, switch the equipment on one piece at a time and check the picture on all your programmes. The pieces of equipment that are not switched on must be on stand-by. If any of your programmes have wavy lines on the picture when the equipment is switched on you will have to change the output frequency of the equipment. Please read the instruction book for the equipment to find out how to do this. Change the output frequency a little at a time (or in 8MHz steps) and keep checking all your programmes. When there are no wavy lines (or other interference) on any of the pictures, re-tune the programme number that you have chosen for your equipment (see 'Manual Tuning'). Do the same for each piece of equipment , but after you've finished with each one, leave it switched on while you check the next piece of equipment.
Continue until you have all the pieces of equipment working together without interfering with each other. If you cannot get rid of the interference you may have to connect the equipment with a scart cable (see 'Connecting other equipment') .

Manual tuning
Use manual tuning to tune in any extra item of equipment connected by the aerial lead.
Manual tuning by frequency is very useful if you are trying to tune a non-standard frequency,
which might be generated by some types of external equipment. An example would be an older video recorder or analogue satellite receiver which has a simple output signal modulator with an adjustment screw on the back: this illustration shows a typical adjuster. See 'Frequency' below.

TV system selection by country
This is a multi-standard television which can be used in most European countries. For either automatic or manual tuning you need to tell the television which television system to use by choosing the appropriate country, for example 'GB' stands for 'Great Britain'. Changing the country in the 'system' line has immediate effect on the sig­nal the television is receiving, so if the country does not match the signal then either there will be no sound, no colour or the picture will be distorted. When you store the broadcast channel to a program number the television remembers the country for that channel. Highlight the 'system' line with the PR buttons. Change the country with the volume
buttons ( ).
T uning by broadcast channel number
If you know the broadcast channel number used by the station or piece of equipment you want to tune in, you can enter it by pressing the number buttons while the green highlight is on this line. Highlight the 'channel' line with the PR buttons.
Briefly pressing one of the volume buttons ( ) changes the channel number one at a time.
Pressing and holding one of the volume buttons ( ) for a few seconds makes the television search until it
finds the next signal, then stop tuning. The television will only find a signal that uses a standard broadcast channel. Use 'Frequency' for tuning in older equipment.
We've included a map of transmitters and broadcast channels in Great Britain at the end of this booklet.
Tuning by frequency
Move the green highlight to the 'freq' line with the PR buttons. If you know the frequency used by the station or piece of equipment you want to tune in, enter the first three digits by pressing the number buttons while the green highlight is on this line. Change the digits after the decimal point by pressing the left volume button ( ) to decrease or the right volume button ( ) to increase them.
If you don't know the frequency, press and hold one of the volume buttons () for a few seconds to make the television search until it finds the next signal, then stop tuning. Give the signal a programme number by following 'Program storage number' below.
Channel name
1. Highlight the 'name' line with the PR button
2. Press the right hand volume button ( ) to put the green highlight on
the first character position in the name.
3. Change the character by pressing the PR buttons.
4. Repeat 2 and 3 to for each character position. If you need a space you will find it in the
character set.
5. After the last character position the green highlight moves back to 'name'. Store the name to
the programme number by pressing the OK button.
Program storage number
When you have tuned in a new station or some other equipment, use this line to give a programme number to it. Highlight the 'store to' line by pressing one of the PR buttons.

Clock is used by the wake-up timer. Wake time is when the wake-up timer switches on the television. Wake PR lets you choose the programme number you wake up to.
What’s aspect ratio mean?
Aspect ratio is ratio of the width to the height of the picture. This television has a screen with 4:3 aspect ratio. Wide-screen films normally give a 'letter box' effect on a 4:3 screen, which means there is a black bar above and below the picture. Selecting '4:3' picture format with a wide-screen film fills the screen but things in the picture look tall and thin, but selecting 'zoom' makes them look normal again, although a bit of the film disap­pears off each side of the screen.

Once this has been done any of these pages can be displayed almost instantly by pressing one of the coloured but­tons.
Sub-Pages
Some teletext pages contain too much information to fit on the screen at once, so they are split up into sub­pages and shown in order. The service provider usually displays a label in the top right-hand corner of the screen to show which sub-page is being shown. For example '3/6' shows that you are looking at the third of six pages.
How to display a particular sub-page
1 Enter teletext mode by pressing the button and choose a page with several sub-pages.
If there is no teletext on the selected programme, all you will see is '100' and a few other flashing numbers.

S-VHS Rear scart 2 is the S-video input
Programme Back to normal television information
19
The scart sockets at the back of the television are a convenient way of connecting audio and video (AV) signals to and from the television. As the signals are in a more basic form than the signal at the aerial socket, they are less likely to be affected by interference and other things that can reduce picture quality. This television has two scart sockets on special channels called AV1 and AV2. As well as the scart sockets there are video and audio input sock­ets behind the front control flap provide a different way of connecting to the AV2 channel, but you cannot use scart socket 2 and these sockets at the same time.
Selecting the scart channels Keep pressing the AV button
bb
on the remote control or on the front of the television (II/
bb
) to choose one of three AV options or normal television mode. The display on the screen will follow the order in the table below, which. describes the facilities provided by the scart and AV connectors on your television.
Video and RGB
The sharpest and clearest possible picture is reproduced from separate red, green and blue signals (RGB) which are usually produced by digital equipment. Digital and other equipment also produce the video signal which contains all the picture information in just one connection (CVBS for composite video, blanking and synchronisation).
S-video or S-VHS
'S' stands for 'super' and 'VHS' is a type of video recording system. If a video recorder has the S-VHS feature, it can be connected to the scart socket AV2 to get better quality pictures than ordinary videos can give. You must use a scart lead made for S-VHS (or S-video). Other equipment, like DVD players, may have a super-video output.
NTSC and tint control
Imported video discs and cassettes may be recorded with the NTSC television system which is used in America and Japan. This television can play NTSC video providing it is connected through the scart socket and not the aerial cable. While reproducing NTSC video the picture menu has a tint control on it which you can adjust to get the best appearance of natural colours on the picture (see 'Menus for controlling and setting up the television'). Other kinds of video do not need a tint control.
Automatic A V mode or 'video' switching Some equipment provides an automatic switching signal, so that the video recorder (and so on) 'tells' the
television to reproduce its video and audio signals. You can over-ride the automatic switching by pressing the AV button
bb
until you get back to normal programme numbers. Automatic switching signals do not always agree. If this happens you will have to buy a scart lead without the video-switching signal connection.
Equipment that can be connected
You can usually connect video recorders, camcorders, satellite receivers, video disc players, audio amplifiers and video games to the television using the scart sockets. We cannot guarantee that all combinations of equipment will work.
What is the second scart socket for ?
There are other possible combinations besides the ones we have given you. When you have gained some experience you might want to change the connections yourself and make use of the extra socket. You could feed sound signals out to a surround sound amplifier or connect a DVD player with S-video output.

How to connect a video recorder only
Connect the video recorder scart socket to the AV1 scart socket on your television set. If your video recorder has two scart sockets, use the one marked TV . The television aerial should go to the video recorder, then to the television.
How to connect a satellite receiver only
Connect the satellite receiver scart socket to the AV1 scart socket on your television. If your satellite receiver has more than one scart socket, use the one marked TV. Y our television aerial should go to the satellite receiv­er, then to your television.
How to connect a satellite receiver with one scart socket and a video recorder with one scart socket
If your video recorder has only one scart socket, connect it to the A V1 scart socket on your television. Your tele­vision aerial should go to the satellite receiver, then to the video recorder, then to your television. So that you can record satellite broadcasts you will have to tune one programme number on your video recorder to the satellite receiver (please see your video and satellite instruction books for details of how to do this). So that you can watch satellite television while recording normal television, you should also tune one programme on your television to the satellite receiver (please see 'Manual tuning').
How to connect a satellite receiver with one scart socket and a video recorder with two scart sockets
If your video recorder has two scart sockets, connect one (which may be marked TV) to the AV1 scart socket on your television and connect the other to your satellite receiver. Your television aerial should go to the satel­lite receiver, then to the video recorder, then to your television. You may need to read your video recorder instructions to find out which is the best scart socket to connect to your television and how to record from the scart socket you have connected to your satellite receiver. So that you can watch satellite television while recording normal television, you should also tune one programme on your television to the satellite receiver (please see 'Manual tuning').
How to connect a satellite receiver with three scart sockets and a video recorder with one or two scart sockets
If your video recorder has two scart sockets, use only one of them. Connect your video recorder to the scart socket marked VCR on the satellite receiver. You may need to read your video recorder instructions to find out which is the best scart socket to use and how to record from the scart socket you have connected to your satel­lite receiver. Connect the scart socket on the satellite receiver marked TV to the AV1 scart socket on your tele­vision. Your television aerial should go to the satellite receiver, then to the video recorder, then to your televi­sion.
These connections depend on the satellite receiver being put on stand-by to send the audio and video signals from the video recorder to your television. If you want to watch satellite while recording normal television, select a channel on the satellite receiver and press the
bb
button on your television remote control. If you decide to watch normal television while recording satellite, you may find you automatically get satellite pictures and sound from your television. In this case, select the programme number you want to watch using your television remote control.

Normal phenomena
The following things are normal, so don't worry about them.
When you touch the screen surface there may be some faint crackling noises and the hairs on your skin may stand
on end. This is caused by a little static electricity and is quite harmless.
A bright object with a lot of fine detail may show coloured bands. This is caused by the limitations in the broadcast
system, not a fault in the television.
This television is manufactured for domestic or similar use in temperate climates. Other use might be dangerous.
Mains supply
This television is designed to operate from a 220 - 240Volt, 50Hz AC mains supply only. If you plug it in to other power source's it may damage it. Always check that the rating label on the back cover of the television says 220 to 240V AC (~), 50Hz before you plug it in.
Mains plug
For the UK we have fitted this television with a standard UK moulded mains plug. If the standard plug is not suit­able for your mains socket, then you can buy a special adapter locally.
If the moulded plug is cut off, remove the fuse from the plug and get rid of it safely. If you put it into a mains socket, it would be dangerous.
Never use the moulded plug without the fuse cover fitted. If the cover is lost, you must replace the plug.
Mains plug wiring for standard UK plug
The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this television may not match the coloured markings of the mains plug terminals. You can identify the correct terminals as follows.
The wire that is coloured brown is connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
The wire that is coloured blue is connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
You do not connect anything to the earth terminal which is marked E or llor coloured green or green and yellow.
Cord clamp
You must make sure the lead is firmly secured under the cord clamp.
Mains fuse
In the UK if you use a 13 amp (BS 1363 type) plug then, you must have a 5 amp (BS1362 type) fuse fitted. If you use any other type of plug or connection, you must fit a 5 amp fuse in the mains plug or adapter, or at the household main fuse box feeding the outlet to which this television is connected.
Symbols
This symbol means this unit is double insulated and an earth connection is not required.
This symbol means this unit complies with European safety and electrical interference directives
Safety Information
24
We have designed and made this television to meet European safety standards. But like any television you must take care to get the best results. Here are a few tips to help you do this.
Use
This product is designed for domestic use only and is therefore not suitable for commercial use. Anything other than household or similar general use according to these instructions may invalidate the guarantee and might be dangerous.
Position
For best results, choose a position where light does not fall directly on the screen and at some distance from radiators or other sources of heat. Unless they are magnetically screened, do not place objects which have magnets in them next to the television or it could affect the quality of the colour.
Moving the television, coloured patches and magnetism
If you move the television the earth's magnetic field can cause coloured patches on the picture. The same can happen if you put a magnet close to the television or you don't use the main power switch. To work the auto­matic demagnetisation system and remove the coloured patches, the television must be cool and you must switch it on with the main power switch. If the television is warm, leave it to cool for at least 15 minutes before you switch it on.
Ventilation
Place the television on a hard flat surface where curtains and soft furnishings cannot obstruct the air flow through the ventilation slots. If it is in a cabinet, allow at least a 10 centimetre gap all around.
Water and moisture
Do not use the television near water, for example near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swim­ming pool, in a wet basement or in any damp environment. Do not place liquids, including flower vases on top of the television.
Stands and supports
Use only stands recommended for the television, making sure that the fixings are properly tightened. Never use a make-shift stand or legs fixed with wood screws. If you do use a stand, put the television on a secure level surface
Cleaning
Unplug the television and use only a lightly dampened soft cloth to clean it. Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents as these may damage the cabinet finish.
Good advice
Read these instructions carefully before you try to use the television.
Protect the mains lead. You must make sure the mains lead cannot be walked on, crushed, chafed, cut, or so
on. Don't continue to use your television if you have spilt liquids in it, if it is damaged in any way or if it does not work normally. Immediately unplug the television and get expert advice. Changing the mains plug. If you have to change the plug or remove it, or if the fuse in the mains plug needs changing, read instructions about wiring and replacing the mains plug or fuse we have given in this booklet. Avoid harsh conditions such as wet or damp places, high humidity, places with extremely high or low tem­peratures and places which have strong sunlight or are dusty.
Never let anyone, especially children, push objects into holes and ventilation slots. Make sure that all electrical connections are properly made according to the connection and wiring instructions
we have given. Don't leave the television switched on when you leave the it unattended for a long time, unless the timer is being used.
Electrical safety warnings
To prevent electric shock, do not take the back cover off this television. If anything goes wrong, don't try and fix it yourself, get a qualified service agent to look at it. Protect this television from rain or moisture. Unplug this television from the mains supply when you are not using it for a long period of time. Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket and disconnect the aerial lead during thunderstorms.
