GENERAL INFORMATION
Special features of your
television set
7
You can receive and watch digital TV channels
using your television set (via DVB-T and DVB-C)
– including High Definition programmes (HD).
However, the reception of digital TV channels
in HD is currently limited to a few countries in
Europe.
7
Although this television set complies with the
current DVB-T and DVB-C standards (status:
August 2010), the compatibility with future terrestrial DVB-T and DVB-C cable programmes
cannot be guaranteed.
7
Your television set can receive and process
all analogue and non-encrypted digital
TV channels. The television set is also equipped
with digital and analogue receivers.
7
The electronic TV guide (for digital channels
only) informs you about any schedule changes
at short notice, and provides an overview of
all the broadcasters' schedules for the next few
days. Detailed information on the individual
television programmes are – when provided
by the broadcasting station – are also available in the electronic TV guide.
7
You can connect various data media, such as
an external hard drive, a USB memory stick or
a digital camera, to the USB socket. Using the
file browser, you can then select and play the
file formats of your choice (for example, MP4,
MP3 or JPEG data).
Using the time shift function, you can quickly
and easily pause a programme using the remote control and resume it at a later stage.
The programme is recorded in an external
data medium.
7
You can record any digital TV channels you
choose.
The TV channels are converted by the television and saved on an external data medium
which is connected to the USB socket.
The saved programmes can be called up and
played from the archive on the external data
medium at any time.
You can also play a programme from the
archive while recording another.
You require a digital roof antenna or indoor
antenna (passive or active indoor antenna
with its own power supply) to receive digital
television channels (DVB-T).
7
If you wish to receive digital television channels via your cable system (DVB-C), the antenna cable for your cable operator must be
connected to the television set.
7
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every
channel has its own transmission frequency.
Instead, several channels are grouped into
what are known as bouquets on a regional or
national level. You can find the current transmission information on teletext from various
broadcasters, or by consulting a current TV
guide or the Internet.
7
Various digital television channels from private
broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-T and DVBC). Watching these channels and the recording and playback functions are only possible
with the appropriate CI module and a SmartCard. Ask your specialist dealer.
The range of channels available from the pub-
lic broadcasting institutions (ARD with EinsExtra, EinsFestival or ZDF with ZDF Info and all
third party broadcasters) are not encrypted
and can be received without a SmartCard.
Important notes on
environmental protection
7
The following information will help you to save
resources – and money as well.
7
If you are not using your television set for
several days, you should pull out the mains
plug for environmental and safety reasons.
This way the television does not consume any
electricity.
7
As switching off the television set does not
completely disconnect it from the mains, pull
out the plug to disconnect it from the mains
completely.
7
If the device is equipped with a power switch,
switching it off using this switch will be sufficient. The energy consumed by the television
set is reduced to virtually 0 W.
7
In standby mode, the television set uses very
little energy. However, it may be necessary to
leave the television set in standby mode for certain functions (for example automatic switch-on
and switch-off and for timer functions).
7
The television set uses less energy when the
brightness is reduced.

The »Film Mode« detects and processes
feature films automatically for all channel
sources. This means you will always receive
an optimal picture.
This functions in the modi 480i, 576i and
1080i in TV playback and for other channel
sources.
If the »Film mode« is switched on for pro-
grammes without a feature film signal, minor
problems such as picture freeze, defective
subtitles or fine lines in the picture could
occur.

deactivated.
7
»MEMC« (Motion Estimation, Motion
Compensation) provides fluidity for the
picture in active pictures or fast camera
shots. »MEMC« feature only appears
in the menus of the 100Hz products.
In 100Hz products, MEMC feature of the TV
may not function properly for signals out of
60 Hz vertical scanning frequency (56Hz,
75Hz) as PC resolution from PC source. If
you want MEMC feature to function properly for such resources, make sure that the
source you have connected has 50Hz or
60Hz vertical scanning frequency.
