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 highquality 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.
Functions marked by
✳
are not available in
all TV sets.
The illustrated menu contents may vary depending on the TV equipment.
You can find out what equipment your TV
has in the main information – ”Technical
spec. of TV set”.
Setup
Handholds are provided on the front right and
left sides of the Vitros und Mimo TV sets. Use
these handholds to carry the TV set. Do not
carry the Vitros set by the base, as the decorative grid could be damaged.
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.
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.
Cleaning
Clean the TV set only with a damp, soft, clean
cloth (never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning
agents).
Disposal
Packaging and boxes
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.

Please consult your dealer for environmentally
friendly disposal of the TV set.

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.
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. Do not place loudspeakers or
other magnetic sources immediately next to
the TV set.
• 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
centre 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, make 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 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. Vibrations 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 insu-
lation 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.
