… to digital terrestrial television
Welcome to a new form of entertainment with new free to air – and subscription services. Future features are interactive via the modem and Common Interface, and are used for home shopping, home banking and other services.
What is digital TV and why is the world changing to digital transmission?
Digital transmission will do for the eyes what the Compact Disc brought for the ears! No noise in the picture, no cross effects between the picture and sound content, no influence of multipath reception as a result of reflections to the aerial. The quality of reception is outstanding. Digital terrestrial television is received through the same aerial that is used for existing analogue TV reception and is transmitted preferably in the widescreen format 16:9 (speak 16 by nine). Please note, a few TV transmitter stations will have to transmit some of the digi­tal services on new frequencies outside of the existing frequency range. This would make it necessary to have a broadband aerial installed in order to receive all the new services.
How can I record digital transmissions?
Dont worry, this is possible via the Scart extension from your Grundig TV. Refer to page 14. More good news: Digital terrestrial TV was introduced in november ‘98, but new features for interactivities may change the existing TV’s software. Don’t worry! Your TV is prepared for updating any kind of change via the Common Interface (PCMIA) slot on the rear of the TV. Refer to page 10. Flashcards to do this are available, if needed, via your dealer or our Service Organisation. If you want to judge the picutre quality, just follow the instructions on page 57. Your GRUNDIG IDTV (Integrated Digital TV) displays an integrated colour bar test pattern in digital mode – in digital resolution. Impressive this new TV generation – isn’t it. Grundig made for you.

INSTALLATION AND SAFETY
_______________________________
In order to assure that this high-quality and easy-to-use TV set will be able to provide you with good service and pleasure for a long time to come, it is impor­tant that you observe the following points when installing the set.
This set has been designed for the reception and reproduction of picture and sound signals. Any other use is explicitly forbidden.
The ideal viewing distance from the screen is 5 times the diagonal width of the screen. External light shining on the screen adversely affects picture quality.
Make sure that there is enough space inside the cabinet.
Make sure that there is enough space inside the cabinet.
The TV set is designated for operation in dry rooms. Should you nevertheless operate it outside, make absolutely sure that it is protected against dampness (rain, water splashes). Never expose the TV set to any sort of moisture.
Do not place vessels filled with fluid (vases or similar things) on the TV set. The vessel may tip over and the fluid may adversely affect electrical safety. Put the TV set on an even and hard surface. Do not place objects (for example, newspapers) on the TV set or place the set on a cloth cover, etc.
Do not place the TV set close to the heating or in direct sunshine as it could overheat. Heat build-up can be dangerous and is detrimental to the service life of the equipment. From time to time, have a technician come to clean the inside of the set. Keep the TV set away from magnetic fields (for example stereo speakers).

INSTALLATION AND SAFETY
___________________________________________________
Do not open the TV set under any circumstance. The manufacturer will offer no liability for damage resulting from unauthorized tampering.
Be sure that the mains cable is not damaged at any time.
Storms represent a danger for every type of electrical device. Even if the set is switched off, it could be damaged by a lightning strike hitting the mains and/or the aerial lead. Therefore, always disconnect the mains plug and aerial plug when there is a storm.
When cleaning the screen, use only a soft, damp cloth. Use only clean water.
Technology and ecology are combined into a convincing overall concept with this TV set. Ecologically high-quality materials are used exclusively. The housing contains a high amount of recyclable parts from used plastics and the surface colours used are water-based, partly recycled. Wherever possible, painting of individual housing parts has been omitted. Due to the optimized housing con­struction, flame protection materials have been omitted. The number of plastic types has been reduced through and through in order to ensure high-quality recycling when the set is put out of use – all larger plastic parts are marked. For optimum re-use, this TV set has been constructed in such a way as to make dismantling very easy.

INSTALLATION AND SAFETY
___________________________________________________
Warning
In case this appliance is supplied with a Safety Standard Approved mains lead fitted with a non-rewireable 13 Amp mains plug which, if unsuitable for your socket, should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted by a qualified electrician. The fuse and fuse holder must be removed from the plug as acci­dental insertion of the redundant plug into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.
Note:
The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard, should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere. If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type and rating (5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362) 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. If a non-rewireable plug or a rewireable 13 Amp (BS 1363) plug is used, it must be fitted with a 5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse. If any other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5 Amp fuse either in the plug or at the distribution board.
Important:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured 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 the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter "N" or colou-
red black. Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with a letter "L" or
coloured red. In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked with a
letter "E", earth symbol , coloured green or green and yellow. Replacement mains lead can be obtained from your dealer.

Channel programming
The TV set is equipped with an automatic tuning system for analogue and digital TV channels. The tuning can take approx. 15 minutes. When the set is first powerd up and you start the automatic tuning system the TV set searches at first for digital TV channels and then for analogue TV channels.
99 channel positions for digital TV channels (services) and 99 channel positions for analogue TV channels are available.
When the automatic search is completed, you may sort the channels in a sequence of your choice for digital and then for analogue channels. Mixing is not possible.
You may delete TV channels which have been found several times, or those with poor reception quality, from the TV programme charts.
Programming digital and analogue TV channels using the automatic tuning system
1 Switch the TV set on by pressing »IO« on the TV set.
– The »AUTOMATIC TUNING SYSTEM« screen appears.
2 Start the search with »OK«.
– The TV set searches at first for digital TV channels and then for analogue
TV channels. Depending on the number of channels which can be recei­ved, the search can take some time.
– When the search is completed, the TV set switches to channel position 1
and the »DIGITAL PROGRAM SORT« screen appears.
