Welcome
Thank you!
At Loewe, we combine the highest standards of technology, design and user
friendliness. This applies equally for TV, video and accessories.
Your new TV set is ideally equipped for the TV standard of the future - “HDTV“
(High Definition Television). With its high-resolution screen and the future-proof
digital interfaces HDMI, you have the option to view HD content with excellent
picture quality. It therefore carries the European quality mark “HD ready“.
Digital TV is steadily spreading via terrestrial reception, in the cable network and
via satellite. Loewe supplies sets equipped with DVB-T and DVB-C (DVB-C not for
UK). A digital satellite tuner (DVB-S) can be retrofitted. The DVB integrated within
the TV set is operated via the TV set menus using the remote control.
We have designed this TV set so that it is easy to operate by using menus.
Information about settings in menus is shown automatically; this enables you to
understand the context quickly.
You will find the answers to many of your technical queries in the index of your
TV. If you want to operate the TV, you can access functions 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.
Integrated features
The maximum equipment is described in these operating instructions. Functions
indicated by
ones shown, depending on how your TV is equipped.
You can display how your set is equipped in the “Integrated features“ index (press
the INFO button in the TV mode if no menu is displayed; the “Integrated features“
menu item is also displayed in the index before the initial letter A).
There are separate operating instructions for Digital Recorder +.

Transporting
Only transport the unit in an upright position. Hold the set by the top and bottom
edges of the housing. The plasma/LCD screen is made of glass and/or plastic
and may break if not handled carefully. Should the LCD screen become damaged
or should the liquid crystal begin to leak, then it is imperative you wear rubber
gloves when removing the set. Should the liquid come in contact with your skin,
thoroughly rinse with water immediately.

Note on the LCD screen
The TV set with an LCD screen you have purchased meets the highest quality
requirements and has been tested for pixel errors. Despite the utmost caution in
production of the displays, 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 a unit defect as defined by the warranty as long as they are
within the limits specified by the standard.

Welcome
Note on the plasma screen (Xelos A 42 and Modus L 42)
IMPORTANT!
PLASMA SCREEN TECHNOLOGY IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE DISPLAY OF FIXED IMAGES FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME.
A fixed image displayed for an extended period can cause permanent “image retention” to appear on your Plasma screen.
Examples of fixed images include logos, video games, computer images, teletext, interactive applications and images displayed in 4:3 mode etc. If using such applications
it is advised to reduce the “Contrast” setting to minimise the risk of image retention. It is recommended that these images are not displayed for long periods.
Note: Permanent “image retention” on a Plasma TV resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the warranty.
You will be reminded of this warning through an on screen message after switch
on. It will not appear if it is deactivated in the menu. To do this press “Menu“
followed by selection of “Settings“ – “Miscellaneous“ –“On screen displays“
– “Automatic Info.“ then finally select “No“, alternatively it will automatically stop
appearing after the menu has been entered twenty times.
The TV set with plasma screen you have purchased meets the highest quality
requirements and has been tested for pixel errors. Despite the utmost caution in
production of the displays, it cannot be totally ruled out that some of the pixels
might not light up for technological reasons. Please understand that such effects
cannot be considered a unit defect as defined by the warranty as long as they are
within the limits specified by the standard.
For plasma screens, the emission of light decreases the longer the unit is used.
Plasma screens work by using phosphor. In certain operating conditions, this
technology may facilitate image burns. These operating conditions include:
•
Lengthy, continuous display of a freeze picture (>10 minutes).
•
Constant display of the same background.
•
Use of a format that does not entirely fill the screen (such as 4:3) for a longer
period of time.
Once an image is burnt into the display, it is usually not possible to remedy the
problem; this situation is neither covered by the warranty nor by the guarantee. To
avoid or reduce image burns on your screen, please follow these instructions and
recommendations:
•
During the first 100 hours of operation, you should display moving pictures for
the most part or freeze pictures that change frequently; these images are to fill
the entire screen.
•
Use your screen in a full-screen format (16:9).
•
If you use the screen as a PC monitor, always activate the screen saver.
•
Switch the TV set off when it is not being used.
•
Reduce the contrast and brightness as much as possible.
The “DRM“ function (Digital Refresh Mode), which can be called in this set, may
be able to eliminate or reduce minor visible effects.
Call up the Index using the INFO button on the remote control, select “DRM
(Digital Refresh Mode)“ and start the Refresh mode by pressing the OK button. Alternating full-screen colour images will be displayed now instead of the TV picture.
Run the Refresh mode for about as long as a freeze picture was displayed earlier.
End the Refresh mode by pressing any button on the remote control.
Any effects resulting from an excessively long display of a freeze frame cannot be
reversed using the “DRM“ function.
Cleaning
Use only a soft, clean, damp cloth to clean the TV set, the screen and remote
control (do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents).
Disposal
Packing and box
You have chosen a long lasting technical product of very high quality. We have
paid a fee to authorised recyclers who will collect the packing from your dealer for
disposal, pursuant to domestic regulations. Nevertheless, we recommend you to
keep the original box and packing material for optimum protection if you have to
transport the set.
The set
Attention: The EU directive 2002/96/EC regulates the proper
way to recycle, handle and utilise used electronic devices.
Hence, all used electronic devices are to be disposed of separately. Please do not dispose of this set in the normal household
rubbish.
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. You can find out more about recycling (also for countries outside the EU) from
your local government.

For your safety
10 cm
10 cm
m10 cm
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 office
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, drips, splashes, 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 con-
centrations of dust cause leakage
currents in the equipment, which
can lead to danger of electric shock or fire.
The manufacturer‘s warranty is only valid for use in the specified permissible
environment.
• If you have moved the TV set out of the cold into a warm environment, leave it
standing for about an hour since condensation may form.
• 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. 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 10 cm at the
sides and 10 cm at the
top to ensure sufficient
air circulation.
Position the set so that it
is not exposed to direct
sunlight and additional
heating from radiators.
10 cm
10 cm
10 c
• Prevent any metal parts, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax or the like from getting into the TV set through the air venting slits in the rear panel. This can lead
to short-circuits and possibly to fire. 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 authorised 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 mains 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 fire risk.
• When removing the mains 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.

First installation
If the reception conditions are good, then a room antenna may be used for DVB-T.
Passive and active room antennas are available on the market. The power is supplied for an active antenna via the antenna connection. For automatic programming
or in “TV Menu – Connections – Antenna DVB – Antenna DVB-T,“ the distribution
voltage (5 volts) is to be set correspondingly.
It may be practical to use a nondirectional antenna. If the location is outside the
normal transmitting range, then a unidirectional antenna may also be used to
improve the reception quality.
You can find out more on the digital stations that can be received in your area at
your specialist dealer.
If a set was retrofitted with a PIP tuner or if this is already integrated in a set with a
digital recorder, then plug the antenna into the antenna input of the PIP tuner and
connect the PIP tuner output with the ANT-TV socket (Tuner 1). See illustrations on
page 6/7.
Set-specific equipment and retrofitting options for PIP and satellite tuners, see
pages 44 and 45.
If a Digital Satellite Tuner 1 has been retrofitted, connect your satellite antenna
system to the ANT-SAT socket.
If a Digital Satellite Tuner 2 has been retrofitted, connect one antenna cable each,
for example from the antenna switch or from the twin LNC, to both SAT sockets.
When laying the cable, use the cable clips affixed beneath the TV set.
Replace the connection cover on the TV set.
Use of the binders for Xelos A42 and
Modus L 42
The enclosed binders are intended
for holding the connection cables
together and fastening them to the
rear panel.
The binders can be opened again by
pressing on the binder latch.
Using the conditional access module

16. The TV set searches for, saves and sorts all radio stations which can be received
with your antenna system.
17. Then log on your video equipment, decoder and audio system using the connection wizard and connect these to the TV according to the connection diagram
displayed. If you want to connect other equipment later, you can find information
as of page 32.
You can repeat the initial installation at any time, e.g. after moving house. Call the
index using the INFO button (in the TV mode, if no menu is opened). Select the index
item “Repeat initial installation“ (you will find this listed separately before the letter
A). Press OK to start the initial installation.
Note: For DVB-T stations in UK the stations are tied to “Logical Channel Numbers”
– “LCN” and sorted from 1–799. Digital station without “LCN” are stored from 800
onwards. Analogue stations are stored from1001.
Station sorting
Note: not with DVB-T stations in UK.
You can change the station sorting that was carried out automatically later at any
time, see “TV menu – Settings – Stations – Change stations“.

Directing DVB-T antenna
Note: not with DVB-T stations in UK.
If you use a room antenna to receive one or more DVB-T stations that have picture
and sound interference, then you should change the location of where the antenna
is set up. To help you direct your antenna or to help you determine the most suitable
location to set up the antenna, your TV set has a display for the signal quality C/N
and the signal strength Level.
Consult your specialist dealer to find out which channels and frequency bands (VHF
or UHF) are used to broadcast the digital TV stations in your area.
On any one channel, several digital stations are broadcast.
Select a TV channel
1. Call the “TV menu“ via the MENU button.
2. Use to select “Settings“, then use to select the menu line underneath.
3. Select “Stations“, then use to select the menu line underneath.

5. For digital stations, select “Signal source – DVB-T“.
6. Use the numerical buttons to specify the corresponding channel number.
Depending on the channel selected and country, the system automatically sets
the corresponding bandwidth of 7 or 8 MHz. You should only change the bandwidth under special circumstances - if the channel raster in your area is different
from the standard.
When you receive a digital station, the system displays the signal quality
C/N via a bar/numeric value and the signal strength via Level. The antenna‘s
direction or position is best when the largest values possible are displayed (long
bar) for the signal quality and signal strength.
7. Direct the antenna so that the largest numerical value/bar size is reached.
8. If no signal is found in the channel set, you can start the frequency search run
by pressing the blue coloured key within the band selected.
9. Check the other channels one after another on which digital stations are broadcast terrestrially in your area.
For the weakest station, direct the antenna so that the maximum numerical
value/bar size is achieved.
10. After you position or direct the antenna, we recommend to search for all the
stations using the “Search wizard“ (TV menu – Settings – Stations – Search
wizard).
