Information for users in the UK

(Not applicable outside the UK)

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 'Tips' at the end of this booklet.

Interference

The Department of Trade and Industry operates a Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV license 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 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows :

1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved 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 x 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. Makeshift or set-top aerials are unlikely to give adequate results. 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 you consult your dealer on the best method of connection.

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.

During sound transmission the indicator turns to green. 10-15 min. after the sound transmission of the TV has stopped, the indicator turns back to red to indicate the low power standby.

The system has already been configured in the factory to work properly. In rare circumstances, interference from external RF (wireless) equipments such as RF headphones, mobile phones or remote controls for lights, may occur.Then it may be necessary to shift to another wireless channel. Important: Always be sure that the Wireless receiver box and the Wireless Surround settings (see p. 9) are switched to the same transmitting channel.

In rare cases, when no RF surround sound is possible, or when there is too much interference, use the wired back up solution. See Wired rear loudspeakers, p. 22.

Dolby 3 Stereo

(optimal with Dolby Surround broadcasting)

The Dolby Pro Logic* sounds are distributed over the front left, the front right and the centre TV loudspeakers.

(optimal with Dolby Surround broadcasting)

All front and rear loudspeakers reproduce the Dolby Surround Pro Logic II sounds. This sound is always present in the movie or programme marked with G Dolby Surround.

Note:

• Normal stereo broadcast is not always encoded to produce a rear surround sound effect.

• In case of a Cinema Link receiver configuration connected, only the surround modes of the external receiver can be selected.

This is indicated by 2 numbers: the first one indicates the number of front loudspeaker signals, the second one the number of rear loudspeaker signals. E.g.‘Dolby Digital 3/2’ means that 3 front signals are transmitted: left, right and centre, and 2 rear signals: left and right surround. ‘Dolby Digital 1/0’ means that a mono signal is transmitted. ‘Dolby Digital 2/0’,‘MPEG’ or ‘PCM’ means that the transmission contains a stereo signal which can be Dolby Surround encoded. In this case the surround mode will display Dolby Pro Logic II.

There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can be connected to your TV. The following connection diagrams show you how to connect them.

Note:

EXT.1 can handle CVBS and RGB, EXT.2 CVBS, RGB and Y/C, EXT.3 and EXT.4 only CVBS.

It is preferred to connect peripherals with RGB output to

EXT.1 or EXT.2 as RGB provides a better picture quality.

If your recorder is provided with the EasyLink function, it should be connected to

EXT.2 to benefit from the EasyLink

functionality.

Recorder (VCR-

DVD+RW)

Connect the aerial cables 1, 2 and, to obtain the optimum picture quality, eurocable 3 as shown. If your recorder does not have a euroconnector, the only possible connection is via the aerial cable.You will therefore need to tune in your recorder’s test signal and assign it programme number 0 or store the test signal under a programme number between 90 and 99, see Manual installation, p. 6.. See the handbook of your recorder.

Decoder and Recorder

Connect a eurocable 4 to your decoder and to the special euroconnector of your recorder. See also the recorder handbook. See Decoder, p. 11. You can also connect your decoder directly to

EXT. 1 or 2 with a eurocable.

Other equipment

(except digital sources)

& Connect the aerial cables 1, 2 and 3 as shown (only if

your peripheral has TV aerial in-/output). Better picture quality can be obtained if you also connect eurocable 5 to

EXT. 2 and a eurocable 4 to EXT. 1, 3 or 4.

é Look for the test signal of your peripheral in the same way as

you do for a recorder.

When a recorder is connected to

EXT.1 you can only record a

programme from your TV. Only when a recorder is connected to

EXT.2

it is possible to record a programme from your TV as well as from other connected equipment.

Digital equipment

(DVD, Digital Set Top Box, ...)

& Connect your digital equipment with a eurocable 1 to one of

the euroconnectors (

EXT 1, 2, 3 or 4), or with a cinch cable to

the video input at the right side of the TV.

é To enjoy Multichannel surround sound from digital sources with

a Dolby Digital audio output also connect an audio cable 2 to one of the two digital audio in sockets of your TV. Make a selection in the Setup, Source menu, p. 11.

“ According to the connected digital equipment, select REC, DVD,
