Enter the number of the page required using the 0 to 9 up/down.
Example: page 120, enter 120. The number is displayed top left, the
counter turns and then the page is displayed. Repeat this operation to
view another page. If the counter continues to search, this means that the
page is not transmitted. Select another number.
Coloured buttons correspond to the colours at the bottom of the screen.
The 4 coloured keys are used to access the items or corresponding
pages. The coloured areas flash when the item or the page is not yet
available.
SELECTING A PAGE
This is used to call or exit teletext modes during ATV reception.
The summary appears with a list of items that can be accessed.
Each item has a corresponding 3 digit page number. If the
channel selected does not broadcast teletext, the indication 100
will be displayed and the screen will remain blank (in this case,
press the CH+ or CH- buttons to check another text page,or else
exit teletext and select another channel).
Teletext is an information system broadcast in certain countries which can be consulted

or who are not familiar with the transmission language (Refer to your local TV guides or
internet program lists to determine if Teletext is used in your area.)
SUBTITLE
Press this button to select the available sub-title languages during DTV
reception (if any), and to select Subtitle On or Off.
Once you have connected your TV antenna and other AV playback equipment
(eg. CD, DVD, Blu-ray player) to the appropriate input sockets on the rear and
side of the TV, you will need to be comfortable with selecting several basic
operations before setting up your TV using the Menu system.
Firstly, the TV has two power modes – Standby and On. In Standby mode, the TV
is powered up, but awaits a "power On" command from either the Remote
Control or from the Standby push-button located on the lower right-hand side of
the TV.
To switch the TV from off into Standby mode, activate the main On/Off rocker
switch located at the bottom mid-right side of the TV, and wait for the Red power
indicator on the bottom right of the TV to light up. Then, press the red power
button on the Remote Control to fully activate the TV (ie. move from Standby to
On mode). The power LED on the front of the TV will change from Red to a blank
colour when the TV is fully powered up, and after approx 10 seconds the screen
will become active and can be commanded using the Remote Control.

First time powering on the TV :
When you first power up your TV, (or you reset the TV to its factory settings), it will
automatically enter the TV Auto Tuning mode. This is where the TV searches for
available TV stations and stores the station details it finds. Make sure your TV antenna
is connected before proceeding with this operation.
By default, an On Screen Display will offer a language selection (pre-set to English), so
just press the OK button on the Remote Control to confirm this option. The OK button is
located in the middle of the cursor arrow button area of the Remote Control.
Firstly, on the upper-middle section of the Remote Control are the main cursor selector
arrows with the OK button in the middle of them. Directly above and to the left of the cursor
arrows is the Main Menu selector button, which displays the Main Menus on the TV's screen.
In the following section of the User Manual, when the operation of the options in the Main
Menus are being described, you first need to press the Main Menu button to activate the
Menu function, then press the Left or Right cursor arrow buttons to select the relevant Menu,
and the Up or Down cursor arrow buttons to move within the options inside each Menu. If at
any time you mis-select a Menu or setting, press the Exit button (located on the bottom righthand side of the cursor arrow buttons) to exit the Menu setting.

The TV will then offer a selection of countries, with Australia as the pre-set option.
Again press the OK button to confirm this selection. Your TV will now scan through all
the analogue TV (ATV) and digital TV (DTV) stations that it can receive using the
connected antenna. This process may take several minutes, but once completed, the
TV will skip to the first DTV program.
The “radio” channels found during the TV Auto Tuning function are the sound-only
services provided by some TV stations.
Using the Main Menus :
Once the TV has run through the Auto Tune mode and found the available programs,
you will then need to know how to select the relevant input you want (eg. DTV, AV,
HDMI etc), and also how to select and adjust the various Menus that allow you to tailor
the operation of the TV to suit your application.
The following pages marked “Menu Settings” will cover the usage and settings of the
various menus in more detail. Please read them carefully to gain the most benefit from
your TV.

advance, you can select this alternative language. At the initial setup stage, the default language is
English, and it is recommended that this setting is not changed unless you are fluent in any new
language chosen.
3) HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) allows your TV to share control of some functions
with various compatible equipment via an HDMI cable connection. The HDMI cable connecting
your equipment to this TV must support both ARC and CEC functionality.
For example, with HDMI CEC set to "On" in the TV's menu and also on an HDMI connected device
that supports CEC (eg. a Blu-ray player), selecting the HDMI input on this TV sends a signal to the
Blu-ray player and may switch it On from its Standby state (depending on the player's CEC
capabilities). If the HDMI CEC and Auto Standby in the HDMI CEC menu are both set to "On" in the
TV's Option menu, and the connected equipment supports the Standby function, then switching On
the HDMI connected player may also switch On the TV from its Standby state. This activity may
even set the TV to the HDMI input that the external device is connected to (again, these examples
depend on the capabilities of your connected equipment).
The HDMI CEC system supports a wide variety of commands, many of which may not be applicable
to this TV or any connected HDMI equipment. Refer to the User Manual of your other equipment to
check what areas of the CEC commands they may be able to work with. If after selecting CEC
operation you find the TV or any connected equipment performing unusually (eg. switching itself
back on after you're switched it back to the Standby mode), your connected equipment may not be
compatible with this TV, and the HDMI CEC sub-menu should be set to the off position.

This will show the approximate time you will be able to record on to your USB drive or Hard Disc.
Factory reset note:
If you wish to reset your TV, please select the Restore Factory Default option, this will clear all
settings.
Check PVR File System
Press the OK Button to start checking the file system of your USB storage or Hard Disk and check
the recording speed capability of the connected device. Once SUCCESS is shown after checking,
you will then be able to begin recording or use the Time Shift function. If FAIL is shown after
checking, you will need to format your USB drive or Hard Disc before being able to record or use
the Time Shift feature. Use of the High Speed format option is recommended.
Format
When you format your USB flash drive or Hard Disc any saved data will be lost. This TV primarily
supports USB 2.0 flashdrives and hard-drives, with its USB socket supporting up to 500mA current
drain. USB 3.0 drives(operating in USB 2.0 compatibility mode) may also be usable, but their
compatibility will need to be checked on a case-by-case basis.
PVR File System Type
There are two types of supported formats: FAT32 and Hi Speed Format. You can press or buttons
to choose the type of formatting. If FAT32 is selected, you will have to format the whole of your USB
drive. If Hi Speed Format is selected, you will then be able to press or buttons to select the size
you wish to use (for example 1GB, 10GB, 20GB... or All). Once a particular size is booked for
recording, you will be able to use the remaining space of your USB drive or Hard Disc for other data
storage.
WARNING: Please note no matter which size is booked for recording, all the data in the allocated
partition of the Hard Disc will be lost after formatting. During Hi-Speed formatting of some USB
drives, you may need to select a smaller Time Shift size than the maximum capacity of the drive, as
some storage capacity is used in the PVR set-up process.
Speed
This will show the supported speed of recording, and whether your storage device can support HD
DTV recording. Speeds above 5,500kb/s are usually more successful when recording HD TV
material.

9. PVR function
1). Prepare to record the program
Before the PVR function can be used, a suitable USB storage device (USB flash-drive or USB
hard-drive) must be connected to the USB socket on the rear side panel of the TV. The USB
storage device should only be connected or disconnected when the TV is switched off. The
USB PVR function relies on the use of high quality USB drives, with higher speed models
likely to provide improved performance.
From the Option Menu enter into the PVR File System and choose "check PVR File
System". Click "OK", and wait until "checking" changes into "Success".
Note: please check the result marked "Speed". If it is "FULL HD support", that means the
speed of your USB device is suitable for time shift and record functions. If not, please format
the device, to make sure the USB device is capable of handling the recording functions. The
default "Free Record Limit" is 6 hours, if the space on the disk is big enough. If the space is not
big enough, the record time will be shorter, depending on the capacity of the device.
During the "check PVR File System" checking, please do not choose any other operation until
it is finished.
The recordings have to be done from within the TV PVR system. The recordings can only be
played in the same TV, and generally not in any other kind of devices (computer, DVD, etc...)
which are not compatible with the .TS file format.
In order to carry out any kind of recording, the TV will oblige you to format the connected
USB device to store the recording. The High Speed format option is recommended for better
HDTV recording results.
WARNING. WHEN YOU FORMAT THE EXTERNAL USB DEVICE YOU WILL LOSE ALL
THE FILES
