IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions should be read
before the appliance is operated.

Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other Fixed Image
Displays

The extended use of fixed 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 fixed 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 fixed 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 all-inclusive 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’ occurs it will never disappear completely and is not covered under
warranty.

4) Insert the batteries supplied into the Remote
control and press the Power/Standby button to
power on the TV

6) After tuning the following screen will appear.

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.

Tip: If the TV finds some, but not all, of the Digital channels, the TV is functioning correctly but the signal
being received is not strong enough. (The signal strength needs to be above 85% - you can see the signal
strength the TV is receiving when you change channels/ programmes) you will need to increase the signal
reception in order to receive all of the channels available. The most economical way to do this is by
purchasing and connecting a 'signal booster' in between the TV and the TV aerial socket. If this does not solve
the problem, you will need to upgrade the TV aerial to a digital hi-gain compatible aerial
