SETUP AND SAFETY

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please note the following instructions when setting up the television set:

This television is designed to receive and display video and audio signals.

All other uses are expressly prohibited.

The ideal viewing distance is five times the diagonal screen size.

Light falling on the screen impairs picture quality.

To ensure the device is always adequately ventilated, make sure there is sufficient space between the television set and nearby furniture.

The television is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it outdoors, make sure it is protected from moisture such as rain or splashing water. Never expose the television set to moisture.

Do not place any vessels such as vases on the television, as they may spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.

Place the television on a hard, level surface.

Do not place any objects such as newspapers on the television or put cloth or similar items under it.

Do not place the television close to heating units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair cooling.

Heat build-up can be dangerous and shortens the service life of the television. For reasons of safety, have a repairman remove any dirt in the television from time to time.

Never open the television under any circumstances. Warranty claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper handling.

Make sure the power cord or the power supply unit (if provided) are not damaged.

Only operate the television with the power supply/power cord provided.

Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even when the television is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains or the antenna. Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.

Use a damp, soft cloth to clean the screen. Do not use water with soap or detergent.

Only clean the housing of your television set with the cloth provided. Do not use water with soap or detergent.

When deciding where to put the device, remember that furniture is often coated with various types of varnish and plastic. Many of these contain chemicals which can corrode the feet of the device, leaving marks on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or impossible to remove.

The screen of your LCD television meets the highest quality standards and has been checked for pixel faults.

Despite the great care taken in manufacturing, technological reasons make it impossible to completely discount the possibility that some pixels may be faulty. Provided they are within the thresholds specified by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by the warranty.

To ensure fires do not occur, always keep candles and other open flames away from the device.

ENGLISH

SETUP AND SAFETY

Do not connect any other equipment while the

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

device is switched on. Also switch off other equipment before connecting it.

Do not plug in the power cord of the device until you have connected the external equipment and the antenna.

Make sure the mains plug is freely accessible.

Caution:

If you plan on using a wall bracket for your

television, make sure you read the assembly manual for the wall bracket or have a specialist assemble it.

When purchasing the wall bracket, make

sure that all the fastening points on the television are also on the wall bracket and that they are all used when mounting it.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Special features of your television set

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.



More information on recording and playing

TV programmes can be found on page 24.

ENGLISH

GENERAL INFORMATION

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Receiving digital channels

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).

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.

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.

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

The following information will help you to save resources – and money as well.

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.

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.

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.

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).

The television set uses less energy when the brightness is reduced.

Notes:

You can only select the »Mpeg NR« function

on digital and AV presets. »Mpeg NR« reduces any interference from

artefacts (pixel blocks) from digital programmes due to MPEG compression (such as from DVB-T receivers or DVD players).

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.

The function »Dynamic Contrast« adapts the

contrast dynamically and optimally for the respective picture content.

With »Dynamic Backlight«, the device opti-

mally adapts the background lighting to the picture content.

The »Backlight« can only be set manually

when the function »Dynamic Backlight« is deactivated.

»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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Information on recording and playing television programmes

■

Recording and playback of television pro-

grammes is only possible with digital television channels (DVB-T and DVB-C).

■

The digital television channels (DVB-T and

DVB-C) you are able to record and playback also depends on the broadcaster.

■

Recording and playback of programmes,

as well as the time shift function, can only be carried out using an external data medium (hard drive or USB stick). The data medium should have a minimum storage capacity of 2 GB.

■

Recordings can be made with most data media

on the market. However, we cannot guarantee operation for all data media.

■

If a programme was recorded on an external

data medium, it can only be played back on your television set. The playback of these programmes is not possible on other devices.

■

If you send your television to be repaired and

hardware components need to be replaced, you might not be able to play the recordings again on the repaired television.

■

Reception for SKY broadcasting service is cur-

rently only possible in Germany with a suitable set-top box or suitable CA module.

■

Grundig does not accept liability for any loss

of saved data on an external data medium.

Possible limitations when using an external data medium

Depending on the broadcaster, you may experience various restrictions on some of the functions from some television channels.

GRUNDIG has no influence on

these restrictions.

■

Recording a programme on the external data

medium can be disabled by the broadcaster. If the message »URI* protected! PVR function is blocked« appears on the screen, then recording or timeshift is restricted (one recording possible) or disabled (recording not possible) by the broadcaster. * URI = User right information (Copyright in-

formation).

■

If you record and save a programme on the

archive of an external data medium, playback can be restricted. The broadcaster can allow you to view this programme one or more times, but it may only be available for a certain period of time.

■

Programmes not suitable for minors will require

the input of a PIN number immediately before recording starts. If this authorisation is not given, the recording may not start.

■

Copying a programme from a digital television

channel onto a video or DVD recorder using the »AV 1« socket (analogue picture/ sound signal) can also be restricted by the broadcaster. Prerequisite is that your device supports the copying function.

Connecting external data media

Notes:

Before connecting the data medium, switch

the television to standby with the device and then switch the television on again.

Before removing the external data medium,

the television must be switched to standby, so that no data loss occurs.

Your television features two USB sockets,

»USB1« and »USB2«.

»USB1« is used to connect data media,

which require an additional power supply – for example, external hard disks.

»8«

. Connect

Notes:

The »USB2« socket of the television sup-

plies a maximum power of 500 mA in accordance with USB specifications. External hard disks which require more power may therefore only be connected to the »USB1« of the television.

If you use a network cable for external hard

disks which have been connected to the »USB1« socket of the television, this network cable must also be disconnected from the power supply when the television is switched off.

External data media may not be disconnect-

ed from the television while files on the data medium are being accessed.

File formats

Your television can work with the following file formats using the USB sockets:

Video data

Special codecs for video compression and decompression provide more memory space without compromising the picture quality excessively.

Your television plays video files in the formats DIVS, XVID, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (L4.1, 4 reference pictures), MPEG-4, MPEG-2, MPEG-1, MJPEG and MOV.

The following file name extensions are also supported: AVI, MKV, MP4, TS, MOV, MPG, DAT, VOB. These files can also contain audio files compressed using MP3, AAC or Dolby Digital

Audio data

Your television can play audio data in the formats MP3, AAC, WMA.

MP3 is the abbreviation for MPEG-1 Level 3 and is based on the MPEG-1 standard, which was developed by the MPEG (Motion Picture Expert Group).

AAC stands for Advanced Audio Coding and was also developed by MPEG. AAC provides better sound quality at an identical data rate.

WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a compression standard for audio data developed by Microsoft.

These formats allow audio files to be recorded and played which sound as good as a CD, while taking up only a fraction of the memory space.

File name extensions which are supported: MP3, MP2, WMA, M4A, AAC.

MP3 files can be organised into folders and subfolders, as on the computer.

Image data

Your television can display pictures in the formats JPEG, PNG and BMP.

JPEG stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. It denotes a process for compressing picture files.

PNG and BMP are process used to save image data with no, or very little, losses.

Picture files can be stored with other types of files on one medium.

These files can be organised into folders and subfolders.

OPERATION WITH A COMMON INTERFACE

------------------

What is a Common Interface?

Common Interface (CI) is an interface for

DVB receivers.

Encrypted channels can only be viewed

with a CA module suitable for the encryption system and in conjunction with the corresponding smart card.

The television set is equipped with a Com-

mon Interface slot into which CI modules from various providers can be inserted.

You can insert the provider’s smart card into

the CA module in order to enable the encrypted channels you wish to view.

Inserting the CA module

Note:

Switch the device off before you insert a CA

module into the »CI« slot.

1 Insert the corresponding smart card into the

CI module.

2 Insert the CI module with the smart card into

the »CI« slot on the television.

Note:

In the »CA Module« sub-menu you can see

which CA module has been inserted in the CI slot.

If you are inserting a CA module into the CI slot of the television for the first time, you will need to wait a moment until the CA module is detected.

Access control for CI module and smart card

1 Open the menu with »i«.

2 Select the line »SOURCE SETUP« with »

or »

« and press »●« to confirm.

– The »SOURCE SETUP« menu appears.

3 Select the line »CA-Module« with »

« and press »●« to confirm.

Notes:

This menu provides operating instructions

and – after you enter your PIN code – access to the PAY-TV provider's channels.

The remaining settings are described in the

operating manuals for your CI module and smart card.

The CA modul is not supported in certain

countries and regions; please consult your authorised dealer.

INFORMATION

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additional Information for units sold in the UK.

Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains supply.

The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European countries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from many European countries.

This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated fuse.

In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only, which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a qualified electrician.

Note:

The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere.

If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective, ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock hazard.

If it is necessary to change the fuse in the nonrewireable plug, the correct type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers should be obtained from your dealer.

Important:

The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the following code:

BLUE – NEUTRAL

BROWN – LIVE

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N” or coloured black.

Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.

In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked with the letter “E”, earth symbol “V”, coloured green, or green & yellow.
