quality connection available. Also, use good quality
cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and
sound.

When you connect a device, the TV recognizes its
type and gives each device a correct type name. You
can change the type name if you wish. If a correct
type name for a device is set, the TV automatically
switches to the ideal TV settings when you switch to
this device in the Sources menu.

5.2

Antenna

input signals.

5.4

Video Device

HDMI

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound
quality.

than 5 m, and also connect devices supporting HDR
on any one of HDMI connections.

5.3

Satellite

Attach the satellite F-type connector to the satellite
connection SAT at the back of the TV.

Copy protection

HDMI ports support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital

Audio Device

HDMI ARC/eARC

Only HDMI 1 on the TV have HDMI ARC (Audio
Return Channel).

If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS),
also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to any
of the HDMI connections on this TV. With the HDMI
ARC connection, you do not need to connect the
extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV
picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection
combines both signals.

HDMI eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) is an
advancement over the previous ARC. It supports the
latest high-bitrate audio formats up to192kHz, 24-bit,
and uncompressed 5.1 and 7.1, and 32-channel
uncompressed audio.

5.6

HDMI eARC is only available on HDMI 1.

Digital Audio Out - Optical

Audio Out - Optical is a high quality sound
connection.

This optical connection can carry 5.1 audio channels.
If your device, typically a Home Theatre System
(HTS), has no HDMI ARC connection, you can use this
connection with the Audio In - Optical connection on
the HTS. The Audio Out - Optical connection sends
the sound from the TV to the HTS.

22.4

Channels

No digital channels found during the installation

• Check if the TV was connected with an antenna or is
using a provider signal. Check the cable connections.

• Check if the country where you install the TV, has
digital channels available.

• Check if you selected the correct DVB (Digital Video
Broadcast) system. Select DVB-T (terrestrial) when
you use an antenna or common antenna, select DVB­C (cable) if you use a TV cable service.

• Redo the installation and check if you select the

53

correct country and system.

No analogue channels found during the installation

Check the cable connections.

• Check if you selected the correct DVB (Digital Video
Broadcast) system. Select DVB-T (terrestrial) when
you use an antenna or common antenna.

• Redo the installation and select Digital and

analogue channels during the installation.
Some channels disappeared, cannot find all or some

previously installed channels

• Check if you selected the correct Channel
list or Favourites list you normally use.

• Some channels might be moved or even deleted by
the broadcaster. In the normal channels list, try to
search for the channel you're missing. If the channel is
still available, you can put it back in the favourites
list.

• A channel can be deleted from the channel
list during Automatic channel update. These
automatic updates are done overnight if the TV is on
standby.
Channels that do not exist anymore are deleted and

Exceptionally, a channel can be deleted because the
TV could not find it while checking for its presence. It
might not broadcast at night.
To avoid channels being deleted during
the Automatic channel update because the TV
could not find them although these channels are still
there, you can switch off Automatic channel update.

 (Home) > Settings > All
Settings > Channels > Antenna/cable installation,
Satellite installation* > Automatic channel update

* Satellite installation is only for models which
support satellite functions.

• Check if the settings are set to two satellites.

Changing the installation settings did not solve my
problem

All settings, satellites and channels are only stored at
the end of the installation when you finish.

All satellite channels are gone

If you use an Unicable system, make sure you
assigned two unique user band numbers for both
built-in tuners in the Unicable settings. It might be
that another satellite receiver in your Unicable system
is using the same user band number.

Some satellite channels seem to have disappeared
from the channel list

If some channels seem to be gone or displaced, the
broadcaster might have changed the transponder
location of these channels. To restore the channel
positions in the channel list, you can try an update of
the channel package.

I cannot remove a satellite

Subscription packages do not allow removing a
satellite. To remove the satellite, you have to do a
complete installation again and select another

printed on the back of the TV. Never connect the TV
to the power outlet if the voltage is different.

Stability Hazards

A television set may fall, causing serious personal
injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children,
can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• ALWAYS ensure the television set is not overhanging
the edge of the supporting furniture.

• ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or mounting
methods recommended by the manufacturer of the
television set.

• ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the
television set.

• ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of
climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its
controls.

• ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your
television so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or
grabbed.

• NEVER place a television set in an unstable location.

• NEVER place the television set on tall furniture (for
example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring
both the furniture and the television set to a suitable
support.

• NEVER place the television set on cloth or other
materials that may be located between the television
set and supporting furniture.

• NEVER place items that might tempt children to
climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top of
the television or furniture on which the television is
placed.

If the existing television set is going to be retained
and relocated, the same considerations as above
should be applied.

Risk of Injury or Damage to the TV

• Two people are required to lift and carry a TV that
weighs more than 25 kg or 55 lbs.

• If you mount the TV on a stand, only use the
supplied stand. Secure the stand to the TV tightly.
Place the TV on a flat, level surface that can support
the weight of the TV and the stand.

• When wall mounted, ensure that the wall mount can
safely bear the weight of the TV set. TP Vision bears
no responsibility for improper wall mounting that
results in accident, injury or damage.

• Parts of this product are made of glass. Handle with
care to avoid injury or damage.

Risk of damage to the TV !

battery. If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it
can cause severe internal burns in just 2 hours and
can lead to death.

• Keep new and used batteries away from children.

• If the battery compartment does not close securely,
stop using the product and keep it away from
children.

• If you think batteries might have been swallowed or
placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate
medical attention.

• Risk of fire or explosion if the battery is replaced by
an incorrect type.

• Replacement of a battery with an incorrect type that
can defeat a safeguard (for example, in the case of

57

some lithium battery types).

• Disposal of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or
mechanically crushing or cutting of a battery, that can
result in an explosion.

• Leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature
surrounding environment that can result in an
explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.

• A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure
that may result in an explosion or the leakage of
flammable liquid or gas.

Risk of Overheating

a space of at least 20 cm or 8 inches around the TV
for ventilation. Ensure curtains or other objects never
cover the ventilation slots on the TV.

Lightning Storms

23.2

Screen Care

Clean

• Never touch, push, rub or strike the screen with any
object.

• Unplug the TV before cleaning.

• Clean the TV and frame with a soft damp cloth and
wipe gently. Never use substances such as alcohol,
chemicals or household cleaners on the TV.

• To avoid deformations and colour fading, wipe off
water drops as quickly as possible.

• Avoid stationary images as much as possible.
Stationary images are images that remain onscreen
for extended periods of time. Stationary images
include onscreen menus, black bars, time displays,
etc. If you must use stationary images, reduce screen
contrast and brightness to avoid screen damage.

Disconnect the TV from the power outlet and antenna
before lightning storms.
During lightning storms, never touch any part of the
TV, power cord or antenna cable.

Risk of Hearing Damage

Avoid using earphones or headphones at high
volumes or for prolonged periods of time.

Low Temperatures

If the TV is transported in temperatures below 5°C or
41°F, unpack the TV and wait until the TV temperature
reaches room temperature before connecting the TV
to the power outlet.

Humidity

In rare occasions, depending on temperature and
humidity, minor condensation can occur on the inside
of the TV glass front (on some models). To prevent
this, do not expose the TV to direct sunlight, heat or
extreme humidity. If condensation occurs, it will
disappear spontaneously while the TV is playing for a
few hours.
The condensation moisture will not harm the TV or
cause malfunction.
