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/LED 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

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.

Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as direct sunlight, fire, etc.

Do not use old and unused batteries together.

Only replace the exhausted batteries with those having the same model, value and properties.

By ensuring proper disposal of these batteries, you will have contributed in prevention of potential hazards on the environment and human health that may arise from inappropriate disposal of the batteries.

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.

Special features of your television set

You can receive and watch digital TV channels using your television set (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.

You r 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).

GENERAL INFORMATION

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

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 from page 36.

Smart Inter@ctive TV feature provides your TV with the Internet services and pages when it is connected to the Internet. You can visit popular video and photo sharing sites as well as social networks. And you can watch TV and listen to radio on web.

DLNA feature allows you to use a wired or wireless local network to access your content that were recorded with DLNA compatible devices we use at our daily lives such as a PC, mobile phone or NAS (Network Attached Storage) which are operated as DMS (Digital Medial Server). Thanks to DMR feature, when DLNA application has been started, you can automatically start and stop media playing on devices with DMC feature.

Devices that contain and serve video, music or image files are called Server. This television receives video, music and image files from the server through home network, allowing you to access and play such media even when your television is located in a different room then the server. A DLNA compatible device such as a PC, mobile phone, NAS or a NAS-like (Network attached storage) device which operates as a DMS (Digital Media Server) is required in order to use home network.

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). Watc hing 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 on still images

Watching the same image for a long time on the screen may cause a still image remains feebly on the background. Feeble image(s) on the background is originated from LCD/LED technology and does not require any action under guarantee. To avoid such cases and/or minimize the impact, you may observe the tips below.

Do not allow the same TV channel to stay on the screen for a very long time. Channel logos may cause this situation.

Do not allow the images, which are not full screen, to constantly stay on the screen; if not streamed in full screen format by the broadcaster, you can convert the images to full screen by changing picture formats.

Higher brightness and/or contrast values will lead this impact to appear faster; therefore, you are recommended to watch your TV in the lowest brightness and contrast levels.

ENGLISH

CONNECTION AND PREPARATION

Wireless network connection

1 Connect Grundig WiFi USB dongle to the

»USB1« or »USB2 (HDD)« socket of your television in order to connect the television to a wireless network.

Note:

Grundig Wireless USB WiFi Adaptor is not

supplied with the product but sold separately. Please contact your dealer from where you have purchased your TV to obtain more information about purchasing.

Notes:

The GRUNDIG Wireless WiFi Adapter sup-

ports IEEE 802.11 B/G and N communication protocols. We recommend you to use IEEE 802.11N protocol to obtain the best performance in HD video playback.

If you use a modem that supports IEEE 802.

11B/G, video playback performance may be poor when compared to a modem that supports IEEE 802.11N since the data transfer rate of IEEE 802.11B/G protocol is lower.

Please note that video playback performance

in a DLNA application on a wireless local network and in a smart Inter@ctive TV application on a network with internet connection depends on the number of users on the network as it is the case in every wireless network.

It is recommended to switch off the equipment that are not in use in home network in order to avoid unnecessary network traffic.

Placing the modem or wireless network shar-

er on an elevated location will increase the wireless connection reception strength.

Wireless connection reception strength may

vary depending on the type of the modem, the distance between the modem and television and the distance between the device used as a DMS for DLNA application and the modem.

Modem must be transmitting its SSID in order

to establish a wireless connection. Television can not connect to a network without SSID.

ENGLISH

Wireless network settings

There are two ways of making the wireless net- work settings.

A Automatic connection,

»Apart from Access Point Selection, all data
