Welcome
Thank you!
Loewe sets high standards in 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, the 100 Hz image refresh frequency and the |
|
|
future-oriented digital interfaces HDMI (High Definition |
|
|
Multimedia Interface) it offers possibilities for watching |
® |
T |
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 |
C |
||
® S |
with an up to five times greater resolution than conven- |
|
tional signals and therefore creates an unexpectedly 3D |
||
|
|
image. |
The TV set is equipped for digital reception. You can use the everywhere TV (DVB-T) already broadcast many times as well as digital cable (DVB-C) and also digital satellite reception (DVB-S) with a upgrade.
If MHEG-5 is selected for location of TV set UK or IRL, there are some restrictions for reception:
DVB-C and DVB-S reception is not possible with MHEG-5, see also on page 13. Common Interface Plus technology will not work any more after activating MHEG-5.
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 software.
All the functions can be operated 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.

These operating instructions
About this operating manual
For many questions concerning the technology you will find an answer in the index of your TV set. If your question concerns TV set operation, you can access a function directly from the index of the Tv set. Owing to this possibility, this operating manual only explains the most important operating steps.
The index/glossary from page 68 onwards gives explanations of certain terms used in the TV set and the operating manual.
Sections beginning with the symbol indicate important instructions, hints or conditions for the following settings.
Terms which you will find in the menu or printed on the remote control or the TV set are printed in bold letters.
In the description, the necessary operating elements are located to the left of the text with the handling instructions.
Depending on the connected accessory equipment the menus in the TV set can differ from those described here.
All the station names, programme contents and the illustrated photos in this operating manual are examples.
TV set equipment
See the rating plate on the rear of the set for the precise product designation. The precise features are listed in the Integrated features item in the index of the TV set (see page 16).

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 intended exclusively for the reception and reproduction of video and audio signals and designed for the home and office. It may not be used in rooms with high humidity (e.g. bathrooms, saunas) or high dust concentration (e.g. workshops). The manufacturer‘s warranty is only valid for use in the specified permissible environment.
If the set is used outdoors then ensure that it is protected against moisture (rain, splashing water, or dew). High humidity and dust concentration cause creep currents in the set. This can cause electric shocks or fires.
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.
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 is leaking, wear rubber gloves for handling the TV set. If there is 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 power 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 power cable in such a manner that it cannot be damaged. The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stepped on or exposed to chemicals; The latter also applies for the entire equipment. A power 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.
At least 10 cm clearance must be |
|
left at the sides and top for air |
10 cm |
circulation if the TV set is placed or |
|
hung in a cabinet or a shelf. |
|
Like any electronic device, your TV 10 cm |
10 cm |
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.

Environmental protection |
Repairs and accessories
Never remove the back of the TV set yourself. Only have your TV device repaired or serviced by authorized television technicians.
Only use original accessories such as Loewe stands if possible (see Accessories on page 66).
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.
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 power. 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.
Avoid displaying still images for long periods of time. It is possible that a copy of the image may remain.
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 65). 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.
The power consumed by the TV set in operation depends on the choice of the energy efficiency presetting in the initial installation (page 13).
If you activate the automatic dimming (see page 22), 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. Further details about returning (also for non-EU countries) are available from your local 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 domestic waste according to the Battery Ordinance. Dispose of your batteries at no charge in the collection containers that are set up for this purpose in retail stores.
