This manual applies to several TV set models. Some features may not be available on the model you purchased. Refer to
the feature table provided with this manual to find out the main features of the relevant model.

Important information

Safety
Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the
voltage indicated on the identification sticker located at the back of
your set.
The TV set's components are sensitive to heat.The maximum
ambient temperature should not exceed 35° Celsius. Do not
cover the vents at the back or sides of the TV set. Leave sufficient
space around it to allow adequate ventilation. Install the appliance
away from any source of heat (fireplace, ...) or appliances creating
strong magnetic or electric fields.
Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not exceed
85% humidity. If you have to use the TV set outdoors, do not
expose it to rain or splashing water.Therefore be careful not
to place any object containing a liquid (vase, glass, bottle,...) on or
near your appliance. Moving the set from a cold place to a warm
one can cause condensation on the screen (and on some
components inside the TV set). Let the condensation evaporate
before switching the TV set on again.
If you intend to be away for a long period, switch the TV set off
at the on/standby switch
remain in contact with the mains electricity supply.To completely
isolate the set you must remove the plug from the mains supply
socket.
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect the
TV set from the mains and aerial so that it is not affected by
electrical or electromagnetic surges that could damage it. For this
reason, keep the mains and aerial sockets accessible so they
can be disconnected, if necessary.
Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving off a smell
of burning or smoke.You must never, under any circumstances,
open the TV set yourself, as you run the risk of an electric shock
in doing so.
B. Even when off, some components
LCD panel
The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass.Therefore, it
can break when the product is dropped or impacted upon by other
objects.
The screen of your LCD TV is protected by a glass shield. Under
certain conditions (changes of temperature and humidity) moisture
may form between the glass and the screen. If this relatively rare
condition arises, it is only necessary to switch on the LCD TV for
around twenty minutes,to make it disappear.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product, giving you finely
detailed pictures. Occasionally,a few non-active pixels may appear
on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red.This does not
affect the performance of your product.
In order to ensure long performance of your set and reduce the
risk of screen burning, please observe the following precautions.
- Do not display still images (still computer and video game images,
logos, pictures, text and images displayed in 4:3) for extended
periods of time;
- Use a screen saver when using a computer;
Care
Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and a soft cloth
and mild detergent to clean the rest of the set.
Important: Using strong detergents, alcohol-based and abrasive
products may damage the screen.
Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using solvents,
abrasive or alcohol-based products could damage the TV set.
Never open the appliance yourself since this may put you at risk or
damage the appliance.
THOMSON disclaims any liability if the TV set is not used
in accordance with this manual.
Before setting up your television set, make sure that the surface you want to put the set on can support its
weight (see the list of specifications provided with the booklet).
Don’t place the set on an unstable surface (e.g. moving shelf, very edge of a unit) and make sure that the
front of the television set does not overhang the surface it is sitting on.

Switching on
Follow the instructions on this page on how to switch on your TV set and the remote control before going on to following
pages describing how to use the remote control and the channel set-up procedure.
1. Insert two LR03 or AAA batteries in the remote control.
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 in a 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. Plug the female socket on the mains lead into the mains adapter.
3. Connect the mains adapter to the power socket on the back of the
TV set (towards the left).
This supplies electricity to the TV set, which must be powered exclusively by a 12V or
Mains socket in
continental Europe
24V DC supply (depending on the model).
EN
220 - 240 V ~ 50 Hz
Mains socket for
UK and Ireland
4. Plug the male plug on the mains lead into a 220 - 240V ~ AC 50Hz
mains outlet.
Equipment for the UK and Ireland is supplied with a mains cable fitted with a
5A
moulded plug.
This plug contains safety components and must not be replaced by one sold by
general retailers. It is fitted with a fuse that protects your television. If your set has
stopped working, the fuse may have blown. If it has, replace it with an identical ASTA
or BSI certified (BS1362) 5-amp fuse.
5. Connect the outside aerial or cable network to the socket at the
g
back of the TV set.
The aerial socket (75 Ohms - VHF / UHF / cable) can be used for connecting an
external aerial or other equipment fitted with a modulator (video recorder, satellite
receiver, etc.).
We recommend that you do not connect other equipment (video recorder, satellite
receiver, etc.) to your TV set to begin with, so as not to complicate the set-up
procedure with the additional steps involved. Connect them when you have finished
setting up the channels by referring to page 14 of this manual.
6. Switch the TV on by pressing the on/standby button B on the front.
You will find a description of how to use the remote control on page 4.
Then go to page 6 for information on the initial set-up, or to page 7 for
information on manual set-up (if the channels have already been set up
on your TV).
Please respect the environment and the relevant regulations. Before you
dispose of batteries (or accumulators), ask your dealer whether they require
special recycling and if he is able to take them back.

Connecting headphones
Connect headphones or stereo earphones to the corresponding socket (n) on the

Connecting a video recorder
To obtain optimum picture quality, use a SCART cable. However, you can also connect a video recorder to the television
using the aerial socket.
Refer to the diagram on the inside cover at the end of the manual, which illustrates how this is done.
If you connect a video recorder only via the aerial socket (without using the SCART socket),switch it on and play a tape.
Then search for the video recorder’s relevant channel (refer to the relevant section).
If you connect a video recorder via the aerial socket, you should assign channel 99 to it in order to improve the picture
quality when tapes are being played and in pause mode. However, we recommend you connect your video recorder via the
SCART socket, as it provides better picture and sound quality.
