Tips
Poor receptionThe proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost pictures,
echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your picture: see Fine Tune
(p. 12) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. If you are using an indoor aerial,
reception may be difficult in certain conditions.You can improve reception by rotating
the aerial. If the reception remains poor, you will need to use an external aerial
No pictureHave you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system?
(p. 12). Poorly connected euroconnector cables or aerial sockets are often the cause
of picture or sound problems (sometimes the connectors can become half
disconnected if the TV set is moved or turned). Check all connections.
No soundIf on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that you do not
have the correct TV system. Modify the System setting (p. 12). The amplifier
connected to the TV does not deliver any sound? Check that you have not confused
the audio output with the audio input.
PC and PIP modesCheck that you have configured the computer on a compatible display resolution
don’t work(see p. 18).
Remote controlThe TV set does not react to the remote control; the indicator on the set no
longer flashes when you use the remote control? Replace the battery.
StandbyIf the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode.
To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power
consumption when in standby mode (less than 1 W).
Cleaning the setOnly use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing of your
set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
Still no results?Disconnect the mains plug of the TV for 30 seconds then reconnect it.
If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your
dealer’s after-sales service.

Positioning the TV
For the best results, choose a position where light
does not fall directly on the screen,and at some
distance away from radiators or other sources of
heat. Leave a space of at least 5 cm all around the
TV for ventilation, making sure that curtains,
cupboards etc. cannot obstruct the air flow through
the ventilation apertures.The TV is intended for use
in a domestic environment only and should never be
operated or stored in excessively hot or humid
atmospheres.
General Points
Please take note of the section entitled 'Tips' at the
end of this booklet.
Interference
The Department of Trade and Industry operates a
Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV
licence holders improve reception of BBC and IBA
programmes where they are being spoilt by
interference.
If your dealer cannot help,ask at a main Post Office
for the booklet "How to Improve Television and
Radio Reception".
Mains connection
Before connecting the TV to the mains, check that the
mains supply voltage corresponds to the voltage
printed on the type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If
the mains voltage is different,consult your dealer.
Important
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded
13AMP plug. Should it become necessary to replace
the mains fuse, this must be replaced with a fuse of
the same value as indicated on the plug.
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2.The replacement fuse must comply with BS 1362
and have the ASTA approval mark. If the fuse is
lost, make contact with your retailer in order to
verify the correct type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
In order to maintain conformity to the EMC directive,
the mains plug on this product must not be removed.
Connecting the aerial
The aerial should be connected to the socket marked
: at the back of the set.An inferior aerial is likely to
result in a poor, perhaps unstable picture with ghost
images and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft or set-top
aerials are often inadequate.Your dealer will know from
experience the most suitable type for your locality.
Should you wish to use the set in conjunction with
other equipment, which connects to the aerial socket
such as TV games, or a video camera it is recommended
that these be connected via a combiner unit to avoid
repeated connection and disconnection of the aerial plug.
Fitting the stand (if provided)
Use only the stand provided with the set,making
sure that the fixings are properly tightened.A
diagram showing how to assemble the stand is
packed with the stand. Never use a make-shift stand,
or legs fixed with woodscrews.
