Technical information
What is “ACI” (Automatic Channel Installation)?
Some cable companies transmit a signal called “ACI” which contains
information that allows TV channels to be registered automatically on your TV.
When an ACI signal is received, “ACI Start / ACI Skip” appears in the “Auto
Program” screen.
If you accidentally cut the power cord
Attach a new plug following the steps below. If in doubt, contact your local
retailer.
Important
z Never connect to the larger terminal marked with an “E”, the safety earth
symbol “ ” or coloured green or green-and-yellow.
z The wires in the mains lead on this product are coloured with the following
code:
• Blue: Neutral wire (connect to the black terminal, or one marked “N”)
• Brown: Live wire (connect to the red terminal, or one marked “L”)
Change the fuse in the plug
Open the plug as illustrated on the right.
z When replacing the fuse, always use a correctly
rated and approved type and re-fit the fuse cover
when finished.
If in doubt, contact your local retailer.

When “Auto” is selected in Zoom, the aspect ratio will turn to the ratio
obtained from the information the TV received.
