VIRTUAL SPEAKER
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 equipped for the TV standard "HDTV"
(High Definition Television). With its high definition screen
and the future-oriented digital interfaces HDMI (High
Definition Multimedia Interface) it offers possibilities
for watching HDTV broadcasts in an excellent picture
quality.
HDTV is a worldwide, digital standard in the 16:9 format
which revolutionises normal TV viewing. It is broadcast
with an up to five times greater resolution than conventional signals and therefore creates an unexpectedly 3D
image.
The TV set is equipped for digital reception. You can use the already
frequently broadcast "everywhere television" (DVB-T) as well as digital
cable (DVB-C) and digital satellite reception (DVB-S).
The Loewe Digital+ HD 100 platform even allows dual reception of DVB-T,
DVB-C and DVB-S (if MHEG-5 is selected for location of TV set UK or IRL,
DVB-C and DVB-S reception is not possible, see also on page 12).
The TV set is equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder. You can connect
a speaker system (e.g. Loewe Individual Sound) or active speakers and
enjoy movie theater sound.
You can connect a card reader or a USB stick with digital photos and/or
MP3 music files to the USB connection of your TV set and view your photos or play music via the integrated PhotoViewer/MusicBox software.
All functions can be controlled with the Loewe remote control.
We have designed the TV set in such a manner that you can easily
operate it with the help of wizards and menus. Information about the
menu settings is displayed automatically. You will quickly comprehend
the context.

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 designed exclusively for reception and reproduction of
video and audio signals and is designed for living rooms or office facilities,
and should not be operated in rooms with high humidity, such as a
bathroom, or sauna, or where there is a high concentration of dust (e.g.
workshops). The manufacturer‘s warranty is only valid for use in the specified
permissible environment.
If the set is used outdoors ensure that it is protected against moisture
(rain, splashing water, or dew). High humidity and dust concentrations
cause leak currents in the device, which can cause a shock hazard if the
device is touched, or a fire.
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
condensation.
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. Never set the TV down on the
protruding control unit on the bottom of the TV set. This could damage
the control unit.
If the set has to be put down during packing/unpacking, place the TV
set with the entire front surface lying flat on a soft underlay such as a
blanket or the felt from the packing material.
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 escapes, wear rubber
gloves when moving the device. In the case of 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 mains 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 mains cable in such a manner that it cannot be damaged.
The mains cable must not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stepped
on or exposed to chemicals; The latter also applies for the entire equipment. A mains 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.
Ensure that there is at least 10
cm free space on the sides and
above the set for air circulation,
if the set is placed in a cabinet
or on a shelf.
Like any electronic device, your
TV 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 authorised television technicians.
Only use original accessories such as Loewe stands if possible (see acces-
sories on page 68).
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.
Use the cleaning cloth and cleaning agent provided.
The front screen may only be removed by your dealer, even if it is soiled
on the inside.
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. The mains plug and
all connected antenna cables should also be pulled out during long periods of absence.
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
device defect in terms of the guarantee.
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 67). 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. Additional details about return (also for non EU
countries) are available from your local municipal authorities.
Batteries
The batteries supplied as initial equipment do not contain
any pollutants such as cadmium, lead, or mercury.
Used batteries should no longer be disposed of in the do-
mestic waste according to the Battery Ordinance. Dispose
of your batteries at no charge in the collection containers
which are set up for this purpose in retail stores.

Electronic Programme Guide – EPG
EPG stands for Electronic Programme Guide and provides you with
on-screen programme details. With the system, as with a printed programme guide, you can learn about the current programme. In addition
programmes can be sorted according to certain topics, memorised, and
also recordings can be programmed.
Starting and ending EPG
Switch EPG on / off.
➠ A wizard will guide you through the necessary presettings
the first time you start the EPG. If you have analogue
reception, you enter the data capture for analogue
stations after that (see page 31).
➠ For TV sets with MHEG-5 software, EPG is only possible
for DVB-T stations.
The display of the programme guide is divided into two
branches. The programme list (bottom) is influenced by
certain specifications (top).
Blue button: Switches between the upper default lines
Date, ..., Topics and the lower programme list.
Switching and memorizing with the programme list
➠ In the programme list first all currently running
programmes are listed.
➠ You are in the lower programme list,

17:00 for example for the time, all for station and News
for topics. Then you get a list of all news programmes
from 17.00 h onwards in the programme list below it.
The type of list of programmes in the programme list
depends on the setting of the sorting in the EPG menu
(page 31).
Time entry If the line Time is selected, then you can enter the time
after which the programmes will be displayed, via the
numeric buttons of the remote control. The broadcasts
are sorted according to the order of the station list within
the selected time window.
Stations If a favourites list has been selected, only the programmes
of stations from the favourites list are displayed in the
programme list. A single station can be selected with
“...”. The Select single station window is opened. After
selection, only programmes of the selected single station
are displayed.
Hint Before pressing the blue button to leave the upper selec-
tion lines, select one of the preceding lines. If you then
switch back to the programme list, you can change this
menu line with 34, without having to leave the programme list. If you have marked Time, then you can enter
the time, after which the programmes will be displayed,
with the numeric buttons of the remote control.
Paging through the programme list
P+/P– Page backwards / forwards.

In the station selection you can determine for which
station in the programme guide information is to be displayed. Only stations with are shown in the EPG.
With the coloured buttons you can select or remove
stations or only select the stations from the favourites
lists.
Because of the large number of receivable DVB-S stations
you should restrict the station selection. This reduces the
data entry time and increases the clarity in the EPG.
Marking the stations according to reception ranges:
Analogue stations via antenna/cable, for which the
current provider supplies data.
Digital terrestrial stations DVB-T.
Digital cable stations DVB-C.
Digital satellite stations DVB-S.
on (for DVB + analogue): data capture for DVB and ana-
logue stations
on (only for DVB): data capture only for DVB stations.
off: no data capture.
After changes in the EPG menu or after switching off at
the mains switch the EPG data must be collected first.
To do this, switch on the set and select the station from
the analogue stations which you want defined as a provider and let the TV set run for about 1 hour with the
selected station. Or:
Switch the TV set into standby mode. The display on the
TV set glows orange after 2 minutes and the EPG data
entry begins.
The data capture normally takes place at night between
2 and 5 o’clock if the TV set is in the standby mode.
Settings in the EPG menu:
Select provider (only for analogue stations), Station selection, Data capture, Switch on TV when marked, Sorting.
Explanations of setting possibilities in the EPG menu:
Select
Provider
In analogue TV reception there may be different providers who transmit the EPG data for certain station packages.
You can have the list of providers created automatically
with the yellow button in the provider selection. You can
select the desired provider at the end of the provider
search. You can create the list of providers manually with
the blue button.

Sorting
When yes is set, the switched off TV switches on automatically from the standby mode at the beginning of a
set program. A screen message appears when switching
on. If this is not confirmed within 5 minutes with the
OK button, the TV switches back off automatically for
safety reasons.
The programmes can be sorted either according to their
start times (chronologically) or according to stations (cor-responding to station list).

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

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 53.

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

Depending on what you want to use, active speakers, speaker systems,
Loewe Individual Sound Projector and analogue and digital HiFi/AV amplifiers can be configured.
The sound components wizard is preset to playback via TV speakers at

components wizard.
Integrated Dolby Digital decoder
Your TV set is 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 Dolby Digital decoder also decodes dts, MPEG and the analogue
Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Pro Logic II signals, regardless of whether
the audio signal is transmitted by an external device or received by the
TV set.
DVDs or CDs with PCM coded audio format are also decoded by the
Dolby Digital decoder. The CD/DVD player must be connected via a
coaxial, digital connection to the digital input AUDIO DIGITAL IN for this
(see page 53).
The audio signals decoded by the Dolby Digital decoder are output via
the AUDIO LINK interface. You can connect a speaker system such as
the Loewe "Individual Sound" (see page 48) or active speakers (see page
49) to the AUDIO LINK interface and configure these with the sound components wizard.

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 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 integrated
Dolby Digital Decoder in the TV set, via an externally connected digital
audio amplifier, Loewe Individual Sound Projector or Loewe Auro.
➠ If an external audio amplifier or Loewe Individual Sound
Projector is used, this must be registered in the sound
components wizard (see page 52).
Call TV menu.
34Select Connections, 6 go to the menu line below.
34Select Miscellaneous, 6 go to the menu line below.

DVD player
AUDIO DIGITAL IN
The DVD player is already registered at AV1 in the connection
wizard at the factory.
If new devices are connected and registered in the
connection wizard, the digital audio input AUDIO DIGITAL
IN is assigned in the connection wizard (see page 41).
Audio connection in HDMI (DVI) devices
External devices with DVI connection
If an external device with DVI interface is connected via a HDMI/DVI
adapter to the HDMI1/DVI or HDMI2/DVI socket of the TV set, you can
connect 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
it to the AUDIO IN1 socket.
To connect a DVD player to the digital audio input of the
TV set for example, connect the digital output socket of
the DVD player (DIGITAL OUT) via a cinch cable to the
AUDIO DIGITAL IN socket on the TV set.
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 the digital transmission of picture and sound takes
place via one connection in HDMI.
RS-232C 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 RS-232C interface.
Please consult your dealer for configuration of the RS-232C interface and
further information about the different home networking systems.

Timer recording with external devices
➠ It is not possible to record HDTV broadcasts with external devices. Use
the internal Digital Recorder for this.
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 if 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 then is 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 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.
Then the station on the TV set is locked during the timer recording.
It is not possible to switch over to another station.
Copy protection
Copy-protected programmes will not be output on the EURO AV sockets
for legal reasons.
