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.

If the TV fi nds some, but not all, of the channels you would expect
to receive, this is because the signal being received by the TV is
inadequate. In most circumstances, this can be corrected with the
simple addition of a Signal Booster between the TV and the TV aerial
wall socket as shown. Once the signal booster is connected, retune the
TV in order to receive all of the channels
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, ‘Demo’ 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.

Eye/TV Link’ to your system so that
you can use your Sky remote control
to change the Sky channel in the room
where the 2nd TV is located, please
refer to the instructions included
with the TV link/magic eye in order to
ensure the RF or RF2 output on your
Sky box is powered on. (The red LED
light on the TV link/magic eye will light

Subject to the TV model and connections, it is possible to connect the TV
to an external amplifi er or surround sound (subject to connections/inputs
on the device) as follows:-
1) Connect a COAX cable* from the TV’s COAX output to your amplifi er/
surround systems COAX input
2) Connect a 3.5mm jack to L/R phono cable* from the TV’s headphone
socket (where fi tted) to your amplifi er/surround sound L/R input. Please

Some options are only available in certain sources, i.e. HDMI, PC/VGA.
They are unavailable in the other sources where they have no affect.
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
