Welcome
Thank you,
for choosing a Loewe product.
We are very happy to have you as a customer.
Loewe combines high quality in technology,
design and user friendliness. This applies
equally for TV, video and accessories.
Neither the technology nor the design are an
end in themselves but serve to give our customers pure watching and listening enjoyment.
We have not allowed ourselves to be led astray
by short-lived fashion trends in the design. You
have, after all, purchased a high-quality piece
of equipment which you don’t want to get tired
of looking at tomorrow or the day after.
About the set
We have designed the TV set in such a way
that it is easy to operate with menus. If
you need information about how to operate it, just display the info texts with the i
button, you will soon get a grasp of the
relationships.
You will find the answers to many technical questions in the index of your TV set. If
it’s a matter of operating the TV, you can
access a function directly from the index.
This saves you from having to read
through detailed operating instructions
and is the reason why this operating
manual you are reading only explains the
most important operating steps.
With the remote control, you can operate three
Loewe units, this TV, a Loewe video recorder
and a Loewe DVD player.
TV equipment
This operating manual describes the maximum
equipment.
The illustrated menu contents may vary
depending on the TV equipment.
Operation of the Digital Recorder and the DIS
module are described in separate operating
manuals.
You can find out what equipment your TV has
in the main information – Technical spec. of
TV set.
Setup
Have the contrast filter panel fitted to the front
of the set by your dealer. Assembly instructions
are enclosed with the panel.
The On/Off switch is combined in one unit with
the display.
The control panel is integrated in the base of
the set underneath the power switch and display unit. To move the control panel out, press
it at the bottom. This unlocks and drops it
down. The buttons and connections are now
accessible. To close again, press the control
panel up until it snaps in.
Please note that the feet of the TV set could
leave marks on soft wood furniture (e.g. deal,
pine, fir etc.) due to the weight and moving the
set about.
The plastic material of the feet contains
softeners which could in some cases etch the
surfaces of furniture.
In such cases you should place a firm underlay
about the same size as the base of the TV set
underneath it.
Cleaning
Clean the TV set and the remote control only
usingwith only a damp, soft, clean cloth (never
use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents).
A cleaning agent, special cloth and protective
gloves are included with the set for cleaning
the contrast filter screen. Spray the cleaning
agent onto the screen and wipe with the
special cloth until no smears remain.
Disposal
Packing and box
You have chosen a very high-quality, long-
lasting piece of technical equipment. In compli-
ance with national regulations, we have paid a
fee to authorized disposal companies who will
collect the packing from the dealers. Neverthe-
less we recommend that you keep the original
box and packing material so that the TV set has
optimum protection if you have to transport it.
The TV set
Please consult your dealer for environmentally
friendly disposal of the TV set.

BAQ2550H_31310_021_4_GB 22.07.2004, 10:15 Uhr6
Please also read and observe the safety
instructions on the following pages.
Make sure no bright light or sunlight falls
on the screen and impairs the picture by
reflections.
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.
• It is designed for the home or office and
may not be used in rooms with high humidity (e.g. bathroom, sauna) or a high concentration of dust (e.g. workshops). If the unit
is used in the open air ensure that it is
protected against moisture (rain, dripping or
splashing water, or dew). Do not place containers filled with water, such as vases, on
the TV set. High moisture and dust concentrations produce creep currents in the set
which can lead to danger of electric shock
or fire.
The manufacturer’s warranty is only valid
for use of the TV set in the specified permissible environment.
•This set may only be connected to a power
supply with the voltage and frequency
specified on the rating plate using the enclosed power cable. The wrong voltages can
damage the set.
• 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.
• 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. The air
supply is also impaired when the TV set is
placed on a blanket or a thick pile carpet.
10 cm
5 cm
If the TV set is placed in a cabinet or on a
shelf, at least 5 cm clearance at the sides
and at least 10 cm at the top must be left to
allow air to circulate.
Stand the TV set in a place where it is not
exposed to direct sunlight or additional
heating from radiators.
• Magnetic fields influence the picture quality
of the TV set. Therefore, do not place loudspeakers or other magnetic sources immediately next to the TV set.
5 cm
• 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.
Do not place vases filled with water, lighted
candles etc. on the top of the TV set.

For your own safety
•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.
• Due to the picture tube, TV sets have their
center of gravity fairly near to the front. The
TV set therefore has a tendency to tip forward relatively easily which could cause
injury to persons.
Only stand the TV set on a level, firm base.
The set must stand on all feet. The TV
should not overhang particularly when it is
placed in a cabinet or on a shelf.
If the TV is placed on a stand, makes sure
this is larger than the surface area of the
base of the TV.
When using turntables and drawer shelves,
make sure they have a sufficient load capacity.
We recommend you to use only original
parts, e.g. Loewe racks and stands.
If the TV set is placed on a console with
castors, move the console carefully because
the console and the TV could tip over. Consoles with castors may considerably reduce
the stability of the sets placed on them so
only use consoles specially designed and
approved for the TV.
Never allow children to handle the TV set
unsupervised.
• 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.
• 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.
•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.

BAQ2550H_31310_021_4_GB 22.07.2004, 10:15 Uhr8
Do not allow children to play close to the TV
set, they could knock, push or pull it from
the stand and injure someone.

module (IN) and connect the bottom socket
(OUT) to the antenna input of the PIP tuner.
If when equipped with the terrestrial digital
tuner 2 T-Basic a common antenna is used for
digital and analog signals, connect the terrestrial
