Unplug this TV during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

To avoid interference, switch this TV off while operating other radio devices in the immediate vicinity.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the TV has been damaged in any way.

Warning! To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this TV to rain or moisture.The TV must not be exposed to dripping and splashing and no

Electrical information

Mains supply

The mains operating voltage is detailed on the rating plate on the rear of the TV.

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse must be used of the same rating. Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If a replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, dispose of it immediately, having first 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 flat 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 amplifier (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.
