Tips

Care of the screen

Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvent as it can damage the TV screen.

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV 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 aerial. Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you have entered the correct frequency. See Installation, p. 5. Are brightness and contrast out of adjustment? Select Factory settings in the Setup menu, p. 7. Sometimes poor picture quality is possible when having activated an S-VHS camera or camcorder connected to the front side of your TV and another peripheral is connected to time. In this case switch off one of the other peripherals.

EXT1 or EXT2 at the same

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 second TV in good condition? If in doubt, consult your dealer.

No sound

No sound on any channel? Check if the volume isn’t at minimum. Is the sound interrupted with the mute key ¬?

Remote control

If your TV no longer responds to the remote control, the batteries may be dead. You can still use the

-/+ keys at the front of your TV.

No solution

Switch your TV off and then on again once.

Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself.

Check with your dealer or call a TV technician.

27Tips & Index

Glossary

100 Hz

100 Hertz provides a superior solution to the problem of picture flicker which is particularly noticeable with larger screen sizes. In a conventional TV, the picture area is scanned 50 times a second (50 Hertz) – a frequency which is still detectable by the human eye in the form of a flickering picture. In 100 Hertz sets, the picture area is scanned at a rate of 100 times per second (100 Hertz). At this frequency, the eye cannot detect flicker, resulting in a clearer picture which is more relaxing to the eye.

Automatic Channel Installation (ACI)

Automatically installs all TV channels in the same order as offered by your cable company, provided of course that the data is transmitted. It also automatically includes programme number and programme name. With ACI, channel installation is fully automatic, simple and fast.

Child lock

Feature to prevent unauthorised use of your TV.

Digital Scan

If you look at a television screen you will see small imperfections in the picture caused by line vibration. Digital Scan (an internal process) removes interline flicker. When combined with 100 Hz, you will see a totally stable image.

Easy Text

Teletext memory that automatically memorises Teletext pages and gives you instant access to them.

Euroconnector

A 21-pin connector system enabling you to simply connect various types of audio/video and computer equipment.

On-screen display of functions and facilities in a well-organised survey, which you can select using your remote control.

NEXTVIEW

NEX

TVIEW is a new feature to assist the TV and VCR user in selecting the programmes she or he likes to watch from a television programme guide on the screen. It enables the user to see a description of every programme, and mark interesting programmes to be reminded (auto TV on) or recorded (
