About this manual
This manual is common to several TV models.
Therefore, the model you bought may not support
some of the functions or settings described
hereinafter.
About the On/Off switch
The position of the ON/OFF switch AA, differs
depending on the model. It may be located on the
front or on the right-hand side of your set (see the
drawing inside the cover page of your manual).
For your safety
To ensure your own safety and safe operation of
the equipment, observe the following instructions
thoroughly.
TV sets require sufficient ventilation to prevent their
components from overheating, which will cause
failure. Do not block the ventilation openings at the
rear. If you place your TV set in a special piece of
furniture, make sure there is enough space for
unhindered air circulation. Do not place the TV set in
the close vicinity of a heater.
The TV set has been designed for use in dry rooms.
Should you use it, in exceptional circumstances in the
open air (example: on the balcony, in the veranda or
tent), you must absolutely protect it against moisture
(dew, rain, splash water).
The appliance should not be in contact with liquids or
exposed to the risk of dripping or splashing.
Therefore be careful not to place any object
containing a liquid (vase, glass, bottle,...) on or near
your appliance.
Before switching on a cold TV set in a warm room,
you should wait until any condensation in the screen
has dried by itself.
Maximum ambient temperature: 35°.
Maximum humidity: 85%.
In the evening, after TV programmes or in case of a
long absence, it is recommended to turn of the
apparatus at the main switch. Even when the On/Off
switch is in the “Off” position and even though it
does not consume any current, the television is not
completely separated from the mains supply. In order
to completely disconnect, it is necessary to unplug
the mains plug.
The mains plug must be easily accessible.
In the following cases, we recommend that you pull
out the mains connector:
1. During a thunderstorm. In such a case, it is
advisable that you also disconnect the TV set from
the aerial socket.
2. When odour or smoke emanates from the set.
Never attempt to open your TV set yourself.
Further information:
The TV set shielding is sufficient to prevent Xradiation to the exterior.
Any operation performed by a non skilled person,
change of high voltage or replacement of the picture
tube by a model not complying with the manufacturer
specification are likely to cause considerable increase
in X-radiation.
A TV set modified in such a way no longer complies
with the manufacturers’ specification and must not be
used.
About cleaning
The screen is to be cleaned with liquid glass cleaners.
• Never use abrasive products.
• Clean the cabinet with a soft cloth soaked with
neutral cleaner. Do not use solvents, such as white
spirit or alcohol-based cleaning products since they
may damage your television.
• At regular intervals, clean the ventilation grids at
the rear of the TV set.
About degaussing
The terrestrial magnetic field may have an influence
on your TV set. This influence is revealed by the
coloured spots, which appear on the screen.
Should this be the case:
• Turn the equipment off by means of the On/Offswitch.
• Wait about one hour before switching the set on
again.
This procedure performs automatic degaussing of the
screen. Should there still be coloured spots on the
screen, repeat the operation.

Set-up
To set up your TV set, follow the instructions on this
page before you continue with the channel set-up
procedure described on page 4.
1. Put the batteries in the remote control unit.
PRECAUTIONS ON USING BATTERIES
- Only use the battery types specified.
- Make sure you use the correct polarity.
- Do not mix new and used batteries.
- Do not use rechargeable batteries.
- Do not expose batteries to excessive heat, throw
them on the fire, recharge them or try to open them,
as this could cause them to leak or explode.
- Remove the batteries from the remote control if you
are not using it for a long period of time (several
weeks).
2. Connect the TV to a mains socket.
The mains plug carries the power supply to your TV
set. It should only be connected to an AC supply at
220 - 240 V ~ 50 Hz.
It must not be connected to a DC supply. If the plug
is detached from the cable, do not under any
circumstances connect it to a mains socket as there is
a danger of electrocution.
UK SOCKET:
Equipment for the UK is supplied with a mains cable
fitted with a moulded plug.
The plug contains safety components and must not be
replaced by a type sold in shops. It is fitted with a
fuse that protects your television. If your set no
longer works, the fuse may have blown. If it has,
replace it with an identical ASTA certified or BSI
(BS 1362) 5 amp fuse.
3. Connect the outside aerial or cable network to the
g socket at the back of the TV set.
The aerial socket is for connecting an external
antenna or equipment fitted with a modulator (VCR,
satellite receiver, etc.).
When connecting additional equipment to the aerial
socket, you must assign a channel number to it. To do
so, switch the external equipment on, then search for
its modulator channel on the TV set, assign the
channel number found to the equipment and store.
From now on, every time you want to use the external
equipment connected, you must select the channel
number assigned to it.
VCR’s without an integrated modulator do not
require this setting.
