immediately, having fi rst removed the fuse, to avoid a possible
shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

Connecting the TV
Connecting the aerial
Warning! Make sure the TV and all ancillary
equipment are unplugged from the mains
before making any connections
Place the TV on a stable fl at surface, which is out of direct
sunlight and away from any heat sources. In order to prevent
TV picture distortion, make sure you avoid close proximity to
other electrical devices such as microwave ovens.
Connect the aerial cable to the rear of the TV, or connect
it directly or through a recording device (DVD recorder)
connect the TV/DVD as shown below. For best results use a
high gain TV aerial, preferably roof or loft mounted.
• If in a poor signal area, to improve picture quality, purchase
and install a signal amplifi er (not supplied).
• If splitting the antenna for two TVs, use a 2-way signal
splitter (not supplied).
Connecting external devices
The Quick Start guide shows the simplest and most
effective way of connecting to external devices. These
and alternate methods are listed below.
HDMI lead
You can connect this TV to a compatible device using
a HDMI lead. This method will give the best picture.
Connect the cable from the HDMI equipment to one
of the TV HDMI sockets.
SCART lead
You can connect this TV to a compatible device using
a SCART lead. The connection uses component video
signals, i.e. the red, green and blue (RGB) content of
the video are sent on separate signals.
VGA cable
You can use your TV as a monitor for your personal
computer by using a VGA cable. The sound from
the personal computer can also be played through
the TV. This will require the audio output of the
personal computer to be connected to the AUDIO IN
connection of the TV.
S-Video lead
You can connect this TV to a compatible device using
an S-Video lead.
Component input (YPbPr cables)
You can connect this TV to a compatible device
using YPbPr cables. This provides the highest quality
analogue video input. Connect the red, green and
blue outputs to the matching coloured inputs on
the compatible device. An additional audio input is
required.
