Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers,
Captions or Other Fixed Image Displays
The extended use of fi xed image program material can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD
panel.
This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fi xed image. This type
of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:
1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.
2. Do not display the fi xed image for extended periods of time.
3. Turn the power off when not in actual use.
Examples of images that you need to watch out for are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):
• TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos and pricing displays-especially if they are
bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.
• Time Displays
• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long period of time
• TV/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disk content
• Pause Mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode for long periods of time, e.g. When watching DVDs or
videos.
Important - Once ‘shadow image/screen burn’ occurs, it will never disappear and is not repairable under
warranty.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes on the rear of the TV. These holes
are indicated in the picture below.
For optimum viewing,
if wall mounting the TV
higher than eye level,
the TV should be tilted
downwards so that the
TV’s screen is ‘face on’.
See fi g 1 and 2
Important – If wall mounting this TV, only

If you are missing channels, the reason for this is likely to be signal strength, you should
consider connecting signal booster and re-tuning the TV.
As part of our ongoing development to reduce power consumption, we have added an extra function to this Television
called ‘Ecohome’ (you will see this during the fi rst time installation set up). Power consumption using the Ecohome
function is approximately 15% lower than some other modes. The picture brightness is reduced using the Ecohome
function. If this function is not suitable for your viewing environment, you can select other modes as necessary. (Please
note, ‘Professional’ mode is for optimum default picture settings, however, power consumption is approximately 15%
higher than ‘Ecohome’ mode)
Please refer to the user guide section ‘Picture settings’ in order to change the mode to one that maybe more suitable for
your environment. There is also a shortcut button on the remote control called ‘P-Mode’ should you wish to change to
another mode.

1) Check you are in an area that can receive Freeview.
Visit www.freeview.co.uk.
2) Check you are using an aerial that is able to receive a good digital
signal. In most cases, you will need an outdoor digital hi-gain/wideband
aerial. In areas that have excellent Freeview coverage, you may be able
to use a loft type aerial but it is highly likely that you will also need to
connect a booster between the back of the TV and the TV aerial wall
socket. Unfortunately, to receive a good enough digital signal, it is not
possible to use a portable/indoor type aerial. This may change once the
analogue signal is switched off in 2012 and the Digital signal strength is
increased.
Complete a fi rst time installation, please refer to the set-up menu section
of the manual of how to do this
In addition to connecting via SCART, you should connect the aerial cable
from the wall socket to your VCR/DVD Recorder and another aerial cable
from the VCR/DVD Recorder to the TV
1) Ensure the TVs source is on HDMI
2) Check your settings on your PS3 are as per the PS3 instruction manual
Component cables only provide HD Pictures. For the sound you will need
to connect the Red & White audio cables on the Xbox to the Red & White
phono inputs on the rear of the TV. Please refer to the ‘Connections’
pages.
Ensure the USB Memory Key is formatted to type FAT32.
If you wish to use a portable hard drive larger than 32GB, please note
that it must be formatted to the FAT32 fi le system in order to operate on
this TV. Windows XP/Vista computers are only capable of formatting up
to 32GB, therefore, you will need a software programme/utility to format
larger hard drives. Please refer to the web site for more information.
