About this handbook
This is a handbook to help you with the installation and operation of
your new menu TV.
With a menu TV, menus can be called up on the screen. These menus
provide information either about operations to be carried out or about
functions you can select.
This handbook consists of two parts :
Installation
This part helps you with installing your TV,
selecting your menu language, locating and
storing your TV channels and composing
your favourite list of programme numbers.
To do this, follow the directions of the
SYSTEM INSTALLATION menu very closely.
The installation menu is shown as it will
appear on your screen.
Operation
After you have stored the TV channels, you
can call them up on the screen. You can
adjust the picture and sound via the main
menu. The MAIN MENU is shown here as it will
appear on the screen. Feel free to try out all
the different possibilities of your TV. Use this

Tips
Poor Picture
Have you selected the correct TV system ?
Is your TV set or house aerial located too
close to loudspeakers,non-earthed audio
equipment or neon lights, etc. ?
Mountains or high buildings can cause
double pictures or ghost images.
Sometimes you can improve the picture
quality by changing the direction of the
outside aerial.
Is the picture or is the teletext
unrecognisable ? Check if you have entered
the correct frequency or adjust the frequency
by fine tuning. See Installation, p. 7.
Are brightness and contrast out of
adjustment ? Press the PP key.
Switch off your TV overnight with A on the
left side of the TV.
No picture
Is the aerial connected properly ? Are the
plugs tightly connected in the aerial socket ?
Is the aerial cable in good condition and does
it have suitable plugs ? Are the connection
facilities to a possible secondly installed TV
in good condition ? If in doubt, consult your
dealer.
NO PICTURE means that the selected peripheral
equipment is transmitting no picture.
Did you press the correct keys on the remote
control ? Try it once more.
Did you press a again after switching on
teletext ?
Has the child lock been switched off ? See
Special Features, p. 18.
Sound
Did you perhaps interrupt the sound with the
c key ?
Were the internal loudspeakers perhaps
switched off by the switch on the back of
your TV set ? See Extra loudspeakers, p. 31.
Is the sound coming out of only one
loudspeaker ? Was the balance perhaps set
to one extreme ? See SOUND menu, p. 16.
Select SPATIAL ON in the Sound menu if there
is no sound coming out of the extra
loudspeakers in back. See Spatial and
Surround Sound, p. 16.
Remote control
Does your TV no longer respond to the
remote control ? Check whether the
indication TV appears in a grey block.
Perhaps the batteries are empty. See
Preparation, p. 3.
Menu
Did you select the wrong menu ? Once more
press
MENU or off to exit from the menu.
Connections
Check whether your peripheral equipment is
in fact properly connected. See p. 29.
Have you switched on the peripheral
equipment ?
No solution ?
Switch your TV set off and then on again.
Never attempt to repair a defective TV
yourself.
Check with your dealer or call a TV
technician when nothing helps.
End of life directives
Your new TV contains materials which can
be recycled and reused.
At end of life specialised companies can
dismantle the discarded TV to concentrate
the reusable materials and to minimise the
amount of materials to be disposed of.
Please inform yourself on local regulations
on disposal of your old tv set.
