Welcome
Thank you
for choosing a Loewe product. We are happy to have you as a customer. At Loewe we combine the highest standards of technology, design and user friendliness. This applies equally for TV, video and accessories. Neither technology nor design is an end in itself, but both are intended to provide our customers with the best possible audio and visual experience. We have designed the TV set in such a way that it is easy to operate with menus. Information about settings in menus is shown automatically for fast comprehension of the situation. You will fi nd the answers to many of your technical queries in the index of your TV. If it is a matter of operating the TV, you can access a function directly from the index. This saves you from having to read through detailed operating instructions and is the reason, why this operating manual only explains the most important operating steps. With the remote control, you can operate three Loewe units, this TV, a Loewe video recorder and a Loewe DVD player.
TV equipment
The maximum equipment is described in these operating instructions. Func­tions marked by For sets with terrestrial and satellite supported Digital-TV additional operat­ing instructions are enclosed with the appropriate equipment. Menu contents may differ from the ones shown depending on your TV equipment. You can view your TV equipment in the “Integrated features” index (press the INFO button in TV mode, if no menu is displayed; is displayed sepa­rately in the index before A.
are not available in all TV sets.
Note on LCD screen
The screen you have purchased meets the highest quality requirements in this segment and has been tested for pixel errors. Despite the utmost cau­tion in production of the sets, it cannot be totally ruled out that some of the pixels might be defective for technological reasons. Please understand that such effects cannot be considered as a unit defect in the sense of the war­ranty as long as they are within the limits specifi ed by the standard.
Installation possibilities
as a desktop unit
Use the base included in delivery. Installation instructions are enclosed with the base.
as a wall-mounted unit
Use the wall holder WM52, Loewe order no. 63493A00.
Cleaning
Use only a soft, clean, damp cloth to clean the TV, LCD screen and remote control (don’t use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents).
Transporting
Only transport the unit in an upright position. Hold the set by the top and bottom edges of the housing. The LCD screen is made of glass and may break if not handled carefully. If the LCD screen is damaged and in case of leaking liquid crystal, wear rubber gloves to carry the device. In case of contact with the skin, wash thoroughly with water immediately.

For your safety
For your safety and to avoid unnecessary damage to your TV set, please read and observe the following safety instructions:
• This TV set is designed exclusively for reception and reproduction of video and audio signals.
• This equipment is designed for domestic and offi ce environments and must not be used in rooms with high humidity (e.g. bathroom, sauna) or high concentrations of dust (e.g. workshops). If the equipment is used in the open air, ensure that it is protected against moisture (rain, dripping, splashing, sprayed water or dew). Do not place any containers filled with liquids or lit candles on top of the TV. High levels of moisture and concentrations of dust cause leakage cur­rents in the equipment, which can lead to danger of electric shock or fi re. The warranty is only valid for use in the specifi ed permissible environ­ment.
• If you have moved the TV set out of the cold into a warm environment, leave it standing for about an hour because of the possible forming of condensation.
• This equipment must only be connected to a mains power supply which has the same voltage and frequency as that specifi ed on the rating plate with the power cable provided. Incorrect voltages can damage the equipment.
• Like all electronic equipment, your TV needs air for cooling. Obstruction of the air circulation can cause fires. Therefore the air vents on the back must always be kept free. Please do not place newspapers or cloths on/over the TV. If the TV is placed in a cabinet or on a shelf, leave at least 5 cm at the sides and 10 cm at the top to ensure suffi cient air circulation. Position the set so that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and addi­tional heating from radiators.
5 cm 5 cm
10 cm
.
• Avoid metal parts, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax or similar get­ting into the TV set through the air venting slits in the rear panel. This can lead to short-circuits and possibly to fi re. If something should get into the inside of the TV set, pull out the plug immediately and notify customer service.
• Never remove the back of the TV set yourself. Repair and servicing of your TV set should only be carried out by authorized TV technicians.
• Place the TV set on a level, firm base. The set should not protrude at the front when installing in cabinets or shelves. Only use original accessories if possible, e.g. Loewe wall holders and stands. Never let children handle the TV unattended. Do not allow children to play in the immediate vicinity of the TV, they could knock, shift or pull it over and injure someone. Never leave the TV on unsupervised.
• Do not install the TV where there may be vibrations. Vibrations can lead to material stress.
• Pull out the power and antenna cables during thunderstorms. Surge voltages caused by lightning strikes can damage the TV through the antenna system and the mains. Also remove the antenna and mains plugs in long periods of absence.
• The mains plug of the TV set must be easily accessible so that the set can be disconnected at any time.
• Lay the cable in such a way that it will not be damaged. The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, not stood on and not exposed to chemicals, the latter also applies to the device as a whole. A mains cable with damaged insulation can lead to electric shocks and is a fi re risk.
• When removing the power plug, pull the plug housing and not the cable. The wires in the plug could be damaged and cause a short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
The rating plate of the TV is on the rear of the set underneath the small fl ap for the headphones and camcorder connections.

Program guide – EPG
EPG is the electronic program guide for TV programs. With this system, you can easily fi nd the stations that interest you (sorted according to day, time, program and topic). You can memorize stations and station recordings. Depending on whether you are receiving analog stations by cable/antenna or digital stations, you will have different program guides. A wizard is activated the first time you use EPG (not with DVB) which guides you through the necessary settings. Then run the data acquisition (see next page).

You will fi nd the following settings in the EPG menu:

• Switch on TV when marked
Selection of provider/station
In case of analog TV programs, you can change the provider (the station which transmits EPG data) to have other programs evaluated. You can do this under ”Select provider/channel”. Select ”Select provider/channel” and call this menu with OK. If the station you want to change to is not listed in the “Select provider“ list, start the provider search with the green button. This takes a while. Or, if you know the station, press the yellow button for “Change provider list“. Select the provider in the program list and enter it with OK and return to the provider selection with END. Select the provider in the “Select provider“ and enter with OK.Then a program range search is performed. The programs offered by the provider are displayed in a list. If you want certain programs to be omitted from the program guide, you can select and deactivate these in the Program selection. Call the pro­gram selection with the blue button. Now all programs are displayed (the DVB programs too). Programs marked by E are analog terrestrial/cable pro­grams, programs marked by D are digital programs ready for the program guide. Select the programs you want to omit from the program guide one after another and deactivate each one with OK.
Data entry
After these settings or every time the switch is set off with the mains switch, the data must first be collected (only for analog TV). To do this, select the program which you have defi ned as a provider and leave it switched on for about 1 hour or switch the set to standby. The indicator on the TV set lights orange after about 2 minutes. The data entry begins and lasts about 1 hour. The data are also automatically collected between 2 and 5 in the morning when the TV is switched to standby. A prerequisite for data entry is that “Data capture“ is “on“ in the EPG menu. Note
: If the TV set is switched off with the mains switch or the plug is pulled out, all EPG data are lost. If you cannot receive any EPG providers, for example, you should switch off the data entry.
Switch on TV when marked
You can have the TV switched on automatically from standby at the begin­ning of the memorized program. If you are not present at the time, a safety prompt makes sure the TV switches off again after 5 minutes.

Video playback
There are several ways to see the picture and hear the sound of the VCR, DVD player or camcorder on your TV:
1. You can use the Euro AV sockets on the TV set and on the VCR. This is the best way to get a good picture and sound quality. Use the AVS sockets on the right of the TV for camcoders and digital cameras. When playing from a video recorder with Digital Link PLus (or a compa­rable system from another manufacturer), the picture from the VCR is shown at the current program place. When playing back from another video recorder, camcorder or digital camera, select the AV socket to which the video is connected with AV selection (button 0 AV) or with the station table (OK). Video recorders transmit a switching voltage during playback which the TV can evaluate (can be activated in the connection wizard or in the TV menu – Connections – Miscellaneous – Allow switching voltage set to “yes“). Then the picture of the video recorder is shown at the current program place.
2. Use the antenna connection between the VCR and the TV. The sound is only transmitted in mono. Select the fi rst menu item, e.g. VIDEO, in the AV selection.

Timer recording with video or DVD recorder
You can program timer recordings on the TV set. Programming can be done with the EPG, teletext or manually. Open the TV menu with the MENU button, select the „Recording” menu item with and “New recording” with .Open the menu line below with and select whether you want to program the recording by EPG, teletext or manually. You also have the possibility of programming a recording from the timer overview, the program guide-EPG or teletext. In addition you can start a direct recording with the Record button •. When you have connected a recorder which has Digital Link Plus or a comparable system from a different manufacturer, the timer data of analog terrestrial stations are transmitted from the TV to the recorder. The record­ing quality SQ or EQ is transmitted for DVD recorders addtionally to station, date and time. The recording is then controlled by the recorder and the and the recorder tuner is used for reception of the station. The recording data are not saved in the timer list of the TV set. You will only fi nd the timer data in the recorder.
If you want to record from digital stations, the TV tuner is used and the recorder is controlled by the TV set. Then the program is locked during the timer recording. You can switch over to another station if you have analog terrestrial reception in addition to the digital satellite tuner (from which you are recording).
If you have connected a Loewe video recorder with Digital Link (without Digital Link Plus) and you are using the timer programming of the TV, the TV receiver is always user, for terrestrial stations as well. The TV controls the recording. You have to set the recorder to the AV input to which the TV set is con­nected. The program is locked during the timer recording. Switching to other sta­tions is not possible. Digital Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the operating instructions of your Loewe recorder. Use only Euro AV cables, which are completely shielded, otherwise Digital Link/Digital Link Plus will not work. Another advantages of Digital Link is that you can install the recorder in a concealed place (e.g. in a rack). You can control the recorder with the TV set. If you have a Loewe recorder with both systems, you can use all the advan­tages. The advantages of Digital Link Plus are used for the timer recording, the advantages of Digital Link for concealed installation of the recorder.

Audio output “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT“
The digital audio signal is applied at the “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT” socket of the TV. For example, you can connect an external digital audio amplifi er or the Loewe Auro system here.
An analog audio signal from the TV set or another sound source which is re­ceived at one of the Euro-AV sockets of the TV set is converted into a digital signal (PCM) and output at the “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT“socket. Conversion from external analog AV sources to PCM is not possible if the loudspeaker of the TV set is used as a center channel. In this case connect your audio amplifi er additionally to the TV (AUDIO OUT L/R) with a cinch cable and switch the audio amplifi er to analog audio input.
The digital TV sound or the digital sound of a connected auxiliary device is only audible via an external digital audio amplifi er (e.g. Loewe Auro system).

Connecting other audio amplifiers or active speakers
In the connection wizard set “HiFi/AV amplifier” under “Device selection: Audio device“. The connection wizard allows confi guration of different au­dio amplifi ers (stereo amplifi ers, surround amplifi ers, analog or digital) with different sound formats (Dolby Digital, dts, MPEG and Stereo/PCM). Have a look at the audio amplifi er manual.
Select “Sound transmission“ “digital“ for digital audio amplifiers. Con­nect the digital audio output of the TV AUDIO DIGITAL OUT to the digital audio input of the digital amplifi er.
Assign the digital audio input to the socket thjrough which the correspond­ing picture is transmitted (e.g. AV2 if a DVD player is connected there). Then the digital sound is passed to the digital audio output of the TV set and fed to the external audio amplifi er via this.
Specify which sound formats can be decoded with their digital amplifi er (Dolby Digital, MPEG, dts).
Specify under “Amplifi er type“ whether the digital amplifi er is a stereo or surround amplifi er.
If it is a surround amplifi er, specify whether or not the TV speakers are to be used as center loudspeakers. Connect the center output of the amplifi er to the center input of the TV with a cinch cable if necessary. Note:
do not use the center speaker connection on the amplifier but the
pre-amplifi er center output!.
Select “Sound transmission“ “analog“ for analog audio amplifiers. The sound for the analog amplifi er is transmitted via the AUDIO OUT L/R con­nections of the TV to the audio amplifi er. Connect the amplifi er with two cinch cables. Specify under “Amplifi er type“ whether the digital amplifi er is a stereo or surround amplifi er. If it is a surround amplifi er, also specify whether or not the TV speakers are to be used as center loudspeakers. Connect the center output of the ampli­fier to the center output of the TV with a cinch cable if necessary. Note:
do not use the center speaker connection on the amplifier but the
pre-amplifi er center output!

HDMI (DVI) connection
The HDMI connection (High Defi niton Multimedia Interface) allows digital picture and sound transmission via a connecting cable, e.g. from DVD players. The digital picture and sound data are transmitted without data compression and therefore lose none of their quality. No analog/digital conversion is necessary in the connected equipment which also led to losses in quality. DVI signals can be also be reproduced by the HDMI connection using a DVI/HDMI adapter cable. This is possible because HDMI is based on DVI and is downward compatible. That means that the digital video signals are transmitted via HDMI. In addition both use the same copy protection method HDCP.
Connect the set with an HDMI connection with an HDMI cable (type A, 19-pin) to the HDMI socket of the TV set. Log in the HDMI connection in the connection wizard (TV menu – Connections – New devices/modifi cations).
Select the HDMI connection in the AV selection.

No sound is transmitted when a DVI/HDMI adapter cable is used for transmission. You can feed in the appropriate analog sound via the audio input sockets AUDIO IN L/R on the TV set. The sound is played over the TV loudspeakers.
If you have connected a digital external audio amplifi er, you can select the digitla audio signal in the connection wizard (TV menu - Connections
- New devices/changes) and assign it to the HDMI/DVI socket. You do the
other settings for the audio amplifi er as described for the digital amplifi er on page 25. The digital audio signal of the DVI audio source is fed in at the AUDIO DIGITAL IN socket on the TV. The digital audio signal from the TV AUDIO DIGITAL OUT is fed to the amplifi er.

VGA/XGA connection
You can connect a PC or a Set Top Box (STB) and therefore use the TV screen as an output device. Connect the PC/STB with a VGA cable to the VGA/XGA socket on the TV. When connecting to a PC you set one of the following screen resolutions on your PC fi rst. 800x600 60Hz (SVGA) and 1024x768 60Hz (XGA). When a Set Top Box is connected you set the following screen resolutions according to the possibilities of the Set Top Box: 698x576i (PAL), 698x480i (NTSC) 720x480i, 720x 576i (SDTV - standard modes in STB) 1280x720p, 1920x1080i (HDTV modes)

Sound from PC or Set Top Box
Feed the analog audio signal from the PC or the STB to the sockets AUDIO IN L/R on the TV via a cinch cable. The sound is reproduced by the TV speak­ers. If you have connected a digital external audio amplifi er, you can select the digitla audio signal in the connection wizard (TV menu – Connections – New devices/modifi cations) and assign it to the VGA/XGA socket. You do the other settings for the audio amplifi er as described for the digital amplifi er on page 25. The digital audio signal of the Set Top Box is fed in at the AUDIO DIGITAL IN socket on the TV. The digital audio signal from the TV AUDIO DIGITAL OUT is fed to the amplifi er.
Component Video connection
If you have a DVD player/recorder with Component OUT connections, you can connect it to the SD/HD-COMPONENT IN sockets of the TV instead of to the Euro AV sockets. The connecting cable with three cinch plugs each transmits picture information. The playback is better quality than via the Euro AV socket. You need another cinch cable for the analog sound transmission. Connect the analog audio outputs of the DVD player to the AUDIO IN L/R sockets on the TV set. The sound is reproduced by the TV speakers. If you want to use the digital sound of the DVD player with a digital audio amplifi er connected to the TV, make a connection between AUDIO DIG OUT of the DVD player and AUDIO DIGITAL IN of the TV set. Log in the Component device in the connection wizard: Assign the AUDIO DIG. IN input here, if a digital audio amplifi er is also connected, to the COMP. IN socket. You do the other settings for the audio amplifi er as described for the digital amplifi er on page 25.
Set the signal at the Component input in the connection wizard.:
Set to “Automatic“ fi rst. If the signal is not reproduced when playback is started, consult the manual of the connected DVD device to find out what screen resolution is possible (SDTV, HDTV or ProScan).
