Welcome
Thank you,
for choosing a Loewe product. We are happy to have you as a customer.
At Loewe we combine the highest demands on technology, design and user friendliness. This applies equally to TV, video and accessories. Neither the technology nor the design shall be an end in themselves but shall rather provide our customers with the greatest possible viewing and listening pleasure. With the design, we have not let ourselves be guided by short-lived fashion trends. After all, you have purchased a high-quality appliance which you don’t want to get tired of looking at tomorrow or the day after.
About the appliance We have designed the TV so that you can operate it easily with the aid of menus. For example, display the Main Information using the button INFO on the remote control The equipment features of your TV will be displayed under “Technical spec. of TV set”.
As far as the operation of the TV set is concerned, you can call up important func­tions directly from the index.
About the Remote Control You can control three Loewe appliances with the remote control; this TV set, as well as a video recorder and a Loewe DVD player.
Installation
Please note that the feet of the TV set can leave impressions on soft wood furniture (e.g. fir, pine, spruce etc.) and make marks when moved. The plastic material of the feet contains softeners which could attack the surface of some furniture. Use a firm base about the same size as the standing area of the foot in such cases. To move the set grip it only by the case and not by the filter screen. The filter screen and the LCD display screen beneath it are made of glass and may break if incorrectly handled. In the event of damage to the LCD screen (not the glass screen) and possible escape of liquid crystal it is essential to wear safety gloves to move the set. If any of the liquid contacts the skin, thoroughly rinse the affected areas with water immediately.
Note
Throughout the screen’s service life pixel faults in the form of lighter or darker patches on the screen may occur; this phenomenon is characteristic of LCD displays. It is not a defect.
Ensure the quality of the picture is not impaired by reflections of bright light or sunlight.
Cleaning
Clean the TV set and the remote control only with a clean, soft, damp cloth (do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents). Use a glass cleaner for cleaning the screen. Spray it onto the glass and wipe off with a lint­free cloth until there are no marks.
Note
The inside of the front panel and the LCD screen must be cleaned from time to time. Only remove the front panel when the TV set has been switched off and has cooled down. The metal frame of the LCD panel may get hot (up to 60°C) during operation!
• Gently press the glass screen and slide the screen uniformly to the left.
• Move the glass screen upwards, tilt the top edge approx. 10° away from the TV set and remove the glass screen.
Use a plastic cleaner to clean the LCD screen and a glass cleaner for the glass panel. Replace the front panel:
• Make sure that you do not damage the LCD screen with the hooks on the front panel.
•Position the hook side of the glass screen in front of the TV set, with the bottom closer than the top (i.e. inclined approx. 10°). The screen should extend out about 10 mm at the top and be offset by about 5 mm to the left.
• Hang the two lower hooks with the thin ends of the hooks in the lower brackets and push the screen up onto the TV set. Press the glass screen gently against the front of the TV set.
•Then push the glass screen downwards and sideways (to the right).
•You can align the glass panel to the right or left if necessary.
Mimo front panel
You can change the front panel on the Mimo TV. Loewe offers this panel in different colors. You can match your Mimo to your current living style. Instructions (240-31706.001) for removing and fitting the front panel are provided with the interchangeable panel.

For your own safety
For your own safety and in order to avoid unnecessarily damaging your TV set, please read and observe the following safety instructions:
•This TV set is designed exclusively for receiving and reproducing audio and visual (AV) signals.
• Do not place any objects containing liquids e.g. flower vases or lit candles on top of the equipment.
•This equipment is designed for the home and office and may not be operated in rooms with a high humidity (e.g. bathrooms, saunas) or high concentration of dust (e.g. workshops). If the equipment is used temporarily outdoors, make sure it is protected against moisture (rain, dripping or splashing water or condensation). High humidity and dust concentrations lead to creep currents in the equipment which can lead to danger of electric shock or fire. The manufacturer guarantee only applies for use in the specified permissible environment.
•This equipment may only be connected to a power supply with the voltage and frequency specified on the rating plate with the power cable/AC adapter provided. The wrong voltages could damage the equipment.
• Like every piece of electronic equipment, your TV needs air for cooling. Obstructing the air supply to the set can cause fires. The air vents on the back of the TV set must always be kept free. Do not leave newspapers or cloths lying on the TV set.
• Stand the TV set in a place where it is not exposed to direct sunlight or additional heating from radiators.
• Avoid dropping metal objects, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax or similar into the air vents at the back of the set. This causes short circuiting of the set and could start a fire. If anything should get inside the set, switch it off immediately, pull out the plug and call the after-sales service to check it.
•You should never attempt to remove the rear panel of the TV yourself. The set operates with high voltages which could be fatal. Leave repairs and servicing of your TV set to authorized TV technicians.
• Do not allow children to play close to the TV set, they could knock, push or pull it from the stand and injure someone.
• Do not place the TV anywhere where it may be exposed to vibrations because this can lead to overloading of materials.
• Do not leave the TV on unsupervised.
•The mains plug of the TV must be easily accessible so that it can be disconnected from the mains quickly at any time.
• Lay the power cable so that it cannot be damaged. The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, and may not be walked over or exposed to chemicals; the latter applies for the entire TV set. A power cable with defective insulation can lead to electric shocks and is a fire risk.
• When you pull out the mains plug, do not tug the cable but hold the housing of the plug. The cables in the mains plug could be damaged and cause a short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
• If the set is moved from a cold environment to a warm room, condensation forms on all parts of the set. Moisture produces creep currents in the set which can cause a fire. In this case, you should leave the set for a reasonable time to acclimatize (when the condensation on the screen has evaporated) before switching it on.
8
• Pull out the antenna and mains plugs during a thunderstorm. Surge voltages from lighting strikes can damage the set both through the antenna system and the mains. You should also pull out the antenna and mains plugs during long periods of absence.
