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 Denition 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 GB). A digital satellite tuner (DVB-S) can be retrotted. 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 nd 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 are not available in all TV sets. Menu contents may differ from
the 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).
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/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 dened by the warranty as long as
they are within the limits specied by the standard.
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

LOEWE.
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
ofce 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 lled
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 re.
The manufacturer‘s warranty is only valid for use in the specied 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 specied 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 res. 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 suf-
cient air circulation.
Position the set so that it
is not exposed to direct
sunlight and additional
heating from radiators.
• 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 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 authorised TV technicians.
• Place the TV set on a level, rm 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 re 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.
The rating plate of the TV is on the rear of the set.

CA module
CI-Slot
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 nd out more on the digital stations that can be received in your area
at your specialist dealer.
If a set was retrotted with a PIP tuner, 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 illustration on page 5.
Set-specic equipment and retrotting options for CI-Slot, PIP and satellite tuners, see pages 41 and 42.
If a Digital Satellite Tuner has been retrotted, connect your satellite antenna
system to the ANT-SAT socket.
When laying the cable, use the cable clips afxed beneath the TV set.
Handling the fabric hose (optional)
Use the fabric hose for tidy laying
of the power cables, antenna
cables or cables of other electronic
components and lay the hose with
the cables to the connecting
sockets. This provides you with
an elegant solution when laying
cables. The diameter of the fabric
hose increases when you push it together lengthwise (see illustration). This makes it easier for you to push through
cables with plugs.
You can obtain the fabric hose as an accessory from your Loewe dealer or Loewe
Customer Service.
Using the Conditional Access module
(Only for sets with CI slot)
In order to be able to receive encrypted digital stations, a Conditional Access
module (CA-module

Directing DVB-T antenna
Note: not with DVB-T stations in GB.
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 nd 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 34 to select “Settings“, then use 6 to select the menu line
underneath.
3. Select “Stations“, then use 6 to select the menu line underneath.
4. Select “Manual adjustment“ and call the menu using OK (not possible for
MHEG-5 device versions).
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 button within the band selected (VHF or UHF).
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).

broadcast via satellite and can be automatically installed on your set (only possible via ASTRA1).
Software is recognised automatically
The set can determine whether a new software version is available. This occurs
at night when your EPG is automatically updated. For this, your TV set has to remain in the standby mode (do not switch off using the on/off button on the set).
If a new software version has been found, the set will indicate this with an onscreen message the next time the set is switched on: You can decide whether or

EPG - Programme guide
EPG is an electronic programme guide. With this system, you can easily nd the
programmes that interest you (sorted according to day, time, stations and
topics). You can mark programmes and programme recordings.
Depending on whether you are receiving analogue stations by cable/antenna or
digital stations, you will have different programme guides.
A wizard is activated the rst time you use EPG (not with DVB) which guides you
through the necessary settings. Then run the data capture (see next page).
Using the EPG
Switch EPG on/off
The programme guide menu is divided into two areas: at the top, you can
make the settings for the programme list (date, ..., topics); on the bottom, the
programme list is displayed. Use the blue coloured key to switch between the
two areas to make your selections.
All programmes currently running are listed initially in the programme list. With
the 65 buttons, select the programme you want to watch and switch over
with the OK button.
Brief information is shown below the programme list for some programmes. If
more detailed information is available, you can call it using the TEXT button.
Use P+/P– to scroll up or down through the pages of the programme guide. In
the selection lines for date and time above, you will see the time change when
scrolling; when you scroll further, the date also changes.
When the “Time” line is selected, you can enter the time as of which the programmes are to be displayed; use the numeric buttons on your remote control
to do this. Always enter four digits, such as 0900 for 9 a.m.
- 24
If programmes are displayed which have not yet started, you can mark these
with the OK button. The TV set then switches automatically to this station at the
given time. When receiving digital terrestrial and digital satellite stations, you
may nd that two identical EPG data are displayed in the “EPG (DVB)” menu
for one station. If you call the EPG menu in the EPG mode by using the MENU
button, then select “Station selection,” you can select the duplicate station and
deactivate it by using OK).
You have direct access to the selection lines above to pre-select the day, the
time, the station and the topic.
Blue coloured key: Call Select date/time/stations/topics
Use 65 to select the menu line for the date, time, stations or topics. Use
34 to select within the menu line.
If, for example, you are looking for the next news, select today’s date, “Soon“
under Time, “All“ under Stations and “News“ under Topics.
Then you get a list of all news programmes in the programme list below.
If you want to mark one of these news programmes, return to the programme
list using the blue coloured key, select the desired news programme by using
65and mark this by using OK.

Selecting providers and stations
If you want to change the provider for analogue TV reception (the station which
transmits EPG data) to have other stations evaluated, you can do this under
“Select provider”.
Select “Select provider” and call this menu using OK. If the station you want to
switch to is not listed in the “Select provider” list, then use the yellow coloured
key to start the automatic search for stations with EPG data. This takes a while.
Or, if you know the station that transmits EPG data, press the blue coloured key
to compile manually. Select the provider in the station list and adopt it by using
OK and return to the provider selection using 7.
Select the provider in “Select provider” and adopt it using OK. Then a station list
search is performed. The stations offered by the provider are displayed in a list.
If you want certain stations to be omitted from the programme guide, you can
select and deactivate these via Station selection. Call the station selection by
using the blue coloured key.
First, all stations are marked with the ✓ symbol so that their data is displayed
in the programme guide (precondition: provided EPG data is broadcast for the
respective station). Stations indicated by E are analogue terrestrial/cable stations, stations indicated by T are DVB-T stations, stations indicated by C are
DVB-C stations and stations indicated by S are DVB-S stations. These stations
are available for evaluation in the programme guide.
Select the stations you want to omit from the programme guide one after
another and deactivate each one by using OK. The ✓ symbol is removed.
Data capture
After these settings or after each time the set is switched off using the mains
switch, the data must rst be collected, before switching on the set.
To do this, select the station you have dened as a provider and leave the TV
set switched on for about one hour or switch the set to the standby mode. After
about two minutes in standby mode, the indicator on the set turns orange. The
data acquisition begins and lasts about 1 hour. When data acquisition is terminated, the indicator turns red again. The data are also automatically captured
between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. when the TV is switched to standby.
A prerequisite for data capture is that “Data capture“ is “on“ (for DVB + analogue) in the EPG menu.
Note: If the TV set is switched off using the mains switch or the mains plug is
pulled out, all EPG data are lost.
If, for example, you cannot receive any analogue EPG providers or if you only
use DVB, you should set the data capture to “on (only for DVB)”.
Switch on TV when marked
You can have the TV switched on automatically from standby at the beginning
of the marked programme. If you are not present at the time, a safety prompt
makes sure the TV switches off again after 5 minutes.
Teletext transmits information such as news, weather, sports, programme
previews and subtitles.
Teletext on/off
Many stations use the TOP operating system, some use FLOF (e.g. CNN). Your
TV supports both these systems. The pages are divided into topic groups and
topics. After switching on the teletext, up to 1,500 pages, depending on type of
set are stored for fast access (see technical data on page 40).
Page selection with the coloured keys
The coloured bars (in TOP) or the coloured writing (in FLOF) in the next to the
last line show you which coloured keys you can use to scroll to topic groups and
topics.
Red: back to the previously seen page (not in FLOF)

Video playback
There are several ways to see the picture and hear the sound of the VCR, DVD
player/recorder or camcorder on your TV:
1. You can usually use the Euro-AV sockets on the TV set and on the VCR. For
camcorders or digital cameras, use the AVS sockets on the TV set. DVD players/recorders and SetTopBoxes may have HDMI or component sockets for
video and audio transmission. In this case, use the corresponding sockets on
the TV set.
When playing back from a video recorder using Euro-AV socket and Digital
Link Plus (or a comparable system from another manufacturer), the picture
from the VCR is shown at the current channel location.
When playing back from another VCR, camcorder or digital camera, use
the AV selection
device to which the VCR is connected.
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 during playback at
the current station location.
2. You can use the antenna connection between the VCR and the TV without a
Euro-AV socket. The sound is only transmitted in mono. Select the rst menu
item, e.g. VIDEO, in the AV selection.
Calling AV inputs in the AV selection:
Call AV selection
Select AV device/socket (or VIDEO if the video recorder has
been connected only via the antenna socket) and use ...
to call.
Now you will see the playback from the connected AV device.
Calling AV input via the station list
Call the station list with the OK button in TV mode.
In the numeric and alphabetical sorting, you will always nd the AV sockets at
the top of the list.
or the station list (OK) to select the AV socket/the
Timer recording with video or DVD recorder
You can programme timer recordings on the TV set. Programming can be done
with the EPG programme guide (not with DVB-T in GB), teletext or manually.
Call the “Timer list” menu with the button and press the red coloured
key for the “Recording wizard”. Select whether you want to programme the
recording via EPG, teletext or manually. You also have the option to programme
recordings directly from the EPG programme guide or teletext.
Note: Copy-protected programmes are not output to the Euro-AV sockets for
legal reasons.
When you have connected the Euro-AV socket to a recorder which has Digital Link Plus or a comparable system from a different manufacturer, the timer data
of analogue terrestrial stations are transmitted from the TV to the recorder. The
recording quality SQ or EQ is transmitted for DVD recorders, in additional to
the station, date and time. The recording is then controlled by the recorder 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 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 station is locked during the timer recording.
If you have connected a Loewe video recorder with Digital Link to the Euro-AV
socket (without Digital Link Plus) and you are using the timer programming of
the TV, the TV receiver is always used, for terrestrial stations as well. The TV
controls the recording.
You have to set the recorder to the AV input (signal source) to which the TV set
is connected.
Then the station on the TV set is locked during the timer recording.
Digital Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the operating
instructions of your Loewe recorder for more information.
Use only Euro-AV cables, which are completely wired, otherwise Digital Link/
Digital Link Plus will not work.
Another advantage 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.

Assignment of digital audio inputs and
outputs
Audio input “AUDIO DIGITAL IN”
The TV set has a coaxial digital audio input “AUDIO DIGITAL IN” and a coaxial
digital audio output “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT”. If you are using an external digital
surround amplier for sound reproduction, you have to feed digital audio
signals to the TV, e.g. from the DVD player.
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 amplier or the Loewe
Auro system here.
An analogue 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 analogue AV sources to PCM is not possible if the TV’s loudspeakers are
used as a centre channel. In this case, connect your audio amplier additionally
to the TV (AUDIO OUT L/R) with a cinch cable and switch the audio amplier to
analogue audio input.
The digital TV sound or the digital sound of a connected auxiliary device is only
audible via an external digital audio amplier (e.g. Loewe Auro system).
Connect the output socket of the DVD player (DIG OUT) to the TV‘s “AUDIO
DIGITAL IN” socket with a cinch cable.
In the connection wizard, specify that audio transmission is to be digital. Specify
that the digital sound is to be assigned for example to the Euro-AV socket 2 to
feed the digital sound to the digital audio output of the TV set and via this to
the external audio amplier. Further information about this can be found on
page 33.

HDMI (DVI) connection
The HDMI connection (High Denition Multimedia Interface)
allows digital picture and sound transmission via a connecting
cable, e.g. from Loewe DVD Recorder Centros 2102/2172 HD.
The digital picture and sound data are transmitted without data
compression and therefore lose none of their quality. In the equipment connected, no analogue/digital conversion is necessary, which might also have lead
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
downwardly compatible. That means that the digital video signals are transmitted via HDMI - no audio signals are transmitted, though. In addition, both use
the same copy protection method HDCP.
Connect the set with an HDMI connection using an HDMI cable (type A, 19-pin)
to the HDMI socket of the TV set. Log in the HDMI connection in the connec-
tion wizard (TV menu - Connections - New devices/modications).
Select the HDMI connection in the AV selection.
Call AV selection
Select HDMI/DVI socket and use ...
to call.
Start playback on the device connected with HDMI connection.
The set automatically recognises and sets the best possible format for the video.
If transmission occurs via a DVI/HDMI adapter cable, then you can feed in the
appropriate analogue audio via the audio input sockets AUDIO IN L/R on the TV
set. The sound is reproduced via the TV speakers.
If you have connected a digital external audio amplier, you can select the
digital audio signal in the connection wizard (TV menu - Connections - New
devices/modications) and assign it to the HDMI/DVI socket. You can make
the other settings for the audio amplier as described for digital ampliers on
page 33. The digital audio signal of the DVI audio source is fed in at the AUDIO
DIGITAL IN socket on the TV. Feed the digital audio signal from the TV AUDIO
