For your safety
For your own safety and to prevent unnecessary damage to your device,
read and comply with the following safety instructions:
Proper use and environmental conditions
This TV set is intended exclusively for the reception and reproduction of
video and audio signals and designed for the home and office . It may
not be used in rooms with high humidity (e.g. bathrooms, saunas) or
high dust concentration (e.g. workshops ). The manufacturer‘s warranty is
only valid for use in the specified permissible environment.
If the set is used outdoors then ensure that it is protected against mois-
ture (rain, splashing water, or dew). High humidity and dust concentration
cause creep currents in the set . This can cause electric shocks or fires .
If you have brought the set into a
warm environment from the cold, then
wait for about 1 hour before switching
it on to avoid formation of condensa-
tion.
Do not place any objects filled with
liquid or burning candles on the device. Protect the set against dripping
and splashing water.
Never place the TV set in a position
where it is exposed to vibrations. This
can lead to material overload.
Transporting
Only transport the device in vertical position. Grasp the device on the
upper and lower edges of the housing.
The LCD screen is made of glass or plastic and can break if not handled
properly.
If the LCD screen is damaged and liquid crystal is leaking, wear rubber
gloves for handling the TV set. If there is skin contact immediately wash
thoroughly with water.
Power supply
The wrong voltage can damage the set. This equipment must only be
connected to a mains power supply which has the same voltage and
frequency as that specified on the rating plate; use the power cable
provided. The mains plug of the TV set must be easily accessible so that
the device can be disconnected from the mains at any time. When you
unplug the mains plug, do not pull on the cable rather pull on the plug
housing. The cable in the mains plug could be damaged and cause a
short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
Lay out the power cable in such a manner that it cannot be damaged.
The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stepped
on or exposed to che mi cals ; The latter also applies for the entire equipment. A power cable with damaged insulation can cause electrical shock
and is a fire hazard.
Air circulation and high temperatures
The vent slots on the rear panel of the set must always be kept free.
Please do not place newspapers or cloths on/over the TV.
At least 10 cm clearance must be
left at the sides and top for air
circulation if the TV set is placed or
10 cm
hung in a cabinet or a shelf.
Like any electronic device, your TV
10 cm 10 cm
set requires air for cooling. Obstruction of the air circulation can
cause fires.
The set is suitable for different installation solutions. See the instructions
for assembly for the different installation solutions.
Stand the TV set with the table or floor stand only on a level, sturdy,
horizontal base. Particularly ensure that the set does not protrude to the
front when placed in or on pieces of furniture.
Set up the device where it is not exposed to direct sunlight and where it
is not exposed to additional warming through heating elements.
Prevent metal items, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax, or similar items,
from getting into the interior of the device through the vent slots in the
rear panel. Such objects can cause short circuits in the set, which could
possibly cause a fire.
If something should get into the interior of the set then immediately
unplug the mains plug of the device and contact customer service for
more information.

For your safety
Environmental protection
Repairs and accessories
Never remove the back of the TV set yourself. Only have your TV device
repaired or serviced by authorized television technicians.
Only use ori gi nal accessories such as Loewe stands if possible (see Accessories on page 60).
Supervision
Do not allow children to use the TV set without supervision or to play in
the immediate vicinity of the TV set . The set could tip over, be pushed
off or pulled down from the stand surface and injure someone.
Do not allow the switched-on TV set to run unattended.
Volume
Loud music can lead to ear damage. Avoid extreme volume especially
over long periods and when using headphones.
Cleaning
Clean the TV set, the screen, and the remote control unit with a soft,
moist, and clean cloth,only, without any aggressive or scouring cleaning
agents .
Thunder storms
Pull out the mains plug and all connected antenna cables from the TV
set in a thunderstorm. Overvoltage caused by lightning can damage the
set via the antenna system, as well as via the mains power. The mains
plug and all connected antenna cables should also be pulled out during
long periods of absence.
Energy consumption
Your TV set is equipped with an eco-standby power supply. In the standby
mode, the power consumption drops to low power (see Technical data on
page 59). If you want to save even more energy then switch the device
off with the mains switch. However note that in this case, EPG (Electronic
Programme Guide) data will be lost, and it may be that programmed
timer recordings cannot be executed via the TV device.
If you activate the automatic dimming (see page 21), your TV picture will
adapt to the ambient brightness. This reduces the power consumption
of the TV set.
Packaging and box
You have made a decision to purchase a high-quality technical product
with a long service life. For disposal of the packaging, in accordance with
national legislation we have paid a fee to a commissioned recycler to pick
up the packaging from the dealer. Nevertheless we recommend keeping
the original box and packaging material on hand so that the device can
be transported with optimal protection if necessary.
The set
The EU directive 2002/96/EC regulates the proper way
to recycle, handle and utilise used electronic devices.
Old electronic devices consequently must be disposed of
separately. Please do not dispose of this device in normal
household trash!
You may return your used set free of charge at designated
recycling centres or at your specialist dealer whenever you purchase a
new, comparable set. Further details about returning (also for non-EU
countries) are available from your local authorities.
Note on the LCD screen
The TV set you have purchased with LCD screen satisfies the most rigorous quality requirements and has been inspected relative to pixel errors.
In spite of the utmost care in manufacturing the display, for technical
reasons the possibility that some pixels will have defects cannot be 100%
excluded. Please understand that these types of effects, as long as they
are within the standard of specified limits, cannot be considered as a

beginning of the station list you will find the block with
the stations of the preferred signal source.
Any mixed sorting of stations from different signal sources
is only possible with the favourites list.

Digital teletext (MHEG-5)
In the UK or Ireland, the teletext for DVB-T stations is transmitted as per
the MHEG-5 standard. It contains text, graphics, functions and links.
➠ Only for TV sets with MHEG-5 software.
➠ At the moment only available in United Kingdom and Ireland.
➠
Digital teletext is not available when DVB subtitles are being displayed.
The operation of these menus depends on the particular
provider. Normally after a station is changed, the provider
broadcasting the digital teletext makes an introductory
offer for this service on the screen via menu selection.
Follow these notes.
If no message appears telling you how to switch to digital
teletext after switching to another station, press the TEXT
key. If a selection for DVB subtitles is available, this item
must be hidden before.
Depending on the provider’s respective offer, you can use
the buttons and the OK button, the coloured
buttons, the END/TEXT button and sometimes even the
numeric buttons.
If you want to close the digital teletext, just select a different station using the P+/P– buttons or follow the menu
prompts on the screen.

Software update
TV base software and DVB software
Your TV set provides the option to update the TV basic and DVB software. The current software versions can be installed on your set with a
USB stick.
Contact your dealer for a software update by USB stick.
The software can also be updated by different DVB reception paths (DVBT, DVB-C, DVB-S
However, the prerequisite for this is that the software is provided by the
appropriate DVB reception path.
This may differ depending on the TV set and the DVB program provided.
Ask your local dealer for information whether a software update via DVB
reception path is possible.
Automatic information by new software version
In the Change update settings menu (see right column) you can determine
via which DVB reception path (if possible) you want to receive updates.
Your TV set determines automatically overnight whether a new software
version is available via the selected DVB reception path. The TV set must
be left in the standby mode for this (do not switch off with the mains
switch).
If a new software version is available, the TV set informs you of this in an
on-screen message the next time it is switched on (see page 37 – Loading
new software).
Manual search for new software
If it is not displayed automatically that a new software is available when
you switch on the set, you can also search for one manually. The search

Operating additional equipment
Devices to the connections AV1/AV2/AVS
Accessory equipment such as DVD players, video and DVD recorders
etc. can be connected to the TV set at the Euro-AV sockets AV1 and AV2
(see pages 5 and 6).
The AV input AVS (see pages 5 and 6) offers the possibility of connecting
a digital camera or a camcorder for example.
➠ All devices at the AV inputs must be registered in in the connection
wizard (see page 40 onwards).
The connection designations vary according to the logged in device. The
AV selection then contains, for example, DVD in place of AV1 or CAM
in place of AVS.
The Euro-AV sockets can process different signal types. Which signal type
your accessory device provides can be found in the operating manual of
the appropriate device.
Owing to the large number of AV devices available on the market, we can
only mention a few examples for the connection of accessory equipment
to the AV sockets here.
The following description of the connected equipment to the connections
AV1/2/S refers to the device types logged into the connection wizard
from page 40 onwards.
If the sound of a device connected to an AV socket is to be transmitted
digitally, a cinch cable must be plugged between the coaxial digital
output of the accessory equipment and the AUDIO DIGITAL IN socket of
the TV set. In addition the digital audio input must be assigned to the
corresponding AV socket in the connection wizard (see page 41).
The assignment of the digital audio input may also take place outside
the connection wizard. With TV menu → Connections → Miscellaneous
→ Assign digital audio input, the digital audio input can be assigned to
the appropriate AV socket, see page 49.

by a player connected via HDMI, e.g. Loewe BluTech Vision, automatically
in the original 24p format.
Film quality improvement (DMM) must be set to on (see page 21).
Digital video signals from a DVI player can be also be reproduced by the

The sound components wizard helps you to configure the components
used to play the TV sound.
The TV speakers alone or with active subwoofer, active speakers, analogue
or digital HiFi/AV amplifier or the Loewe Individual Sound Projector can
be configured depending on what you want to use.
The sound components wizard is preset to playback via TV speakers at
the factory.
If a Loewe Preceiver Auro with link cable has been connected to the
TV set, you can only select between TV speakers and Auro in the sound
components wizard.
Upgradable Audio AC3/dts decoder
Your TV set may be equipped with an integrated Dolby Digital decoder.
This system has been introduced to the DVD video range and digital TV
stations can also broadcast in digital multi-channel sound.
For playback of 5 audio channels the surround sound is reinforced by the
deepest frequencies from the subwoofer channel (SUB), (5.1 reproduction
= 5 audio channels and 1 subwoofer). All 5 audio channels are reproduced
with the full frequency range from 20- 20,000 hertz and generate the
original theatre effect.
The upgrade kit decodes Dolby Digital, dts and MPEG. Stereo signals
can also be reproduced on multi-channel via Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby
Pro Logic II. This is regardless of whether the signal is transmitted by an
external device or received by the TV set.

Assignment of the digital audio input
In order to be able to hear the digital sound of an external device connected to an AV input, an AV input can be assigned to the digital audio
input socket AUDIO DIGITAL IN. When switching to this AV input, the
digital audio signal applied to the AUDIO DIGITAL IN input is passed on
to the upgradable integrated Dolby Digital decoder and the digital audio
output socket AUDIO DIGITAL OUT. You will then hear the digital sound of
the assigned AV input instead of the analogue sound if available.
Connecting devices to the digital audio input
For the digital audio playback from an external device, e.g. the DVD player,
you have to feed the digital audio signal to the TV set.
The external digital audio signal can be played back via the upgradable
Dolby Digital decoder in the TV set, via an externally connected digital
audio amplifier, Loewe Individual Sound Projector or Loewe Auro.
➠ An external audio amplifier or Loewe Individual Sound
Projector must already be set in the sound components
wizard (see page 48).

Audio connection in HDMI (DVI) devices
External devices with DVI connection
If an external device with DVI interface is connected to the HDMI1/DVI or
HDMI2/DVI socket of the TV set by an HDMI/DVI adapter, you can con-
nect the digital sound of the external device to the digital audio input
socket AUDIO DIGITAL IN.
The assignment of the digital audio input to the corresponding HDMI
socket of the TV set takes place as described in the column on the left.
If you want to use the analogue sound of the external device, connect
this to the AUDIO IN1 socket.
External devices with HDMI connection
If external devices with HDMI interface are connected to the HDMI1/DVI
or HDMI2/DVI socket of the TV set, no assignment of the audio input is
necessary because in HDMI the digital transmission of picture and sound
takes place via one connection.
RS-232C interface (upgradable interface)
You can connect either the Loewe Individual Sound Projector or a home
network system of different manufacturers (e.g. AMX, Crestron) to your
TV set via the upgradable RS-232C interface.
For the configuration of the RS-232C interface and further information
about the different home networking systems, please contact your
dealer.

Timer recording with external devices
➠ It is not possible to record HDTV broadcasts with external devices. Use
the internal Digital Recorder for this if it is installed.
Recorder with Digital Link Plus
If you use an externally connected recorder with Digital Link Plus or a
similar system, the TV set and connected recorder exchange data (e.g.
compare station lists TV set/recorder or timer data of analogue stations).
Please consult the operating manual of your recorder to find out of your
recorder is Digital Link Plus compatible. In addition use only Euro AV
cables for the connection between TV set and recorder.
Analogue stations
The timer data are transmitted automatically from the TV set to
the recorder after programming is complete. (For DVD recorders
in addition the recording quality SQ or EQ is also transmitted.)
The recording is then controlled by the recorder and the recorder
tuner is used for reception of the programme.
The recording data are not saved in the timer overview of the TV
set. Consequently if you want to change or delete the timer data
then you must do so on the recorder.
Digital stations
If you want to record digital stations with an externally connected
recorder, then the DVB tuner is used and the TV device takes over
control of the recorder. Then the station on the TV set is locked during
the timer recording. It is not possible to switch over to another DVB
station.
Recorder without Digital Link Plus
If the programmed timer cannot be transmitted to the external recorder
(no Digital Link Plus) but supports Digital Link (Loewe-own system), the
TV receiver is always used.
Digital Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the operating
instructions of your Loewe recorder.
In addition use only fully wired Euro AV cables for the connection between
TV set and recorder.
Analogue and digital stations
You can control the recording from the TV set. The recorder must
be set manually to the AV input, to which the TV device is connected. The station on the TV set is locked during the timer recording.
It is not possible to switch over to another station.

Glossary
0-9
24p movie display: Modern movie makers produce movies with 24 (full)
pictures per second (24p), conventional TV sets (and most DVDs) show
50 (half) pictures per second. To play the movie, the original number of
pictures is doubled and the film sped up. This is optimal for sports broadcasts but for quieter movies it distorts the picture quality. Loewe TV sets
play 24p movies automatically in the original 24p format.
A
Active antenna: An antenna with its own power supply or amplification
that can improve reception in areas with poor reception.
AV socket: Socket for audio and video signals.
AV sources: Audio/video source.
AVS: Audio/video sockets on the TV set (cinch and Mini-DIN).
B
Band: Designation for a frequency range.
C
CA module: The Conditional Access module contains the coding system
and compares the transmitted code with the one on the Smart Card. If
they match, the appropriate stations or programmes are decoded.
Cinch cable: Cable for transmitting audio or video.
CI slot: See Common Interface.
Common Interface: The Common Interface (CI slot) is a standardised
interface. By inserting suitable decoding modules (CA modules) and a
Smart Card coded digital programmes can be used.
Component IN: Connection by which the video signal is transmitted via
three separate cinch connections. It is made up of the brightness signal
"Y" and the colour difference signals "Pb" and "Pr". YPbPr is the original
analogue version of the digital YCbCr with which, among other things,
video data stored on the DVD and transmitted by satellite, cable or antenna
in DVB are colour coded.
Conditional Access module: See CA module.
Digital Link HD: System for controlling devices via the HDMI connection
of the Loewe TV set in the case of concealed installation.
Dolby Digital: Digital multi-channel audio. The digital standard for high
quality home movie systems. The individual channels are broadcast separately in this standard. The three front channels right, left and centre, the
two surround channels right and left and the external subwoofer channels
are called a 5.1 signal. Another term for Dolby Digital is AC3.
Dolby Pro Logic: Analogue multi-channel audio. Converts a Dolby-coded
stereo signal into a surround sound. This usually contains four channels
(front left, centre, front right, surround channel). A special subwoofer
channel is not generated in this method.
Dolby Pro Logic II: Analogue multi-channel audio. Dolby Pro Logic II is
a further development of Dolby Pro Logic. This method generates a 6channel spatial sound from a stereo or Pro-Logic signal (front left, centre,
front right, surround left, surround right, subwoofer).
Dolby Surround: Analogue multi-channel audio system that brings four audio channels down to two audio tracks with the aid of a matrix coding.
Dolby Virtual Speaker: The Dolby Virtual Speaker technology simulates
the surround playback of a real 5.1-channel playback with only two
speakers.
DTS: Digital Theater Systems; digital multi-channel audio.
DVB-C/-S/-T: Digital Video Broadcasting stands for digital television.
Technical DVB is the standardised process for transmitting digital content
(television, radio, multi-channel audio, room sound, EPG, Teletext, and
