INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this Technika Advanced which has been designed and manufactured to give you many years of trouble-free service.

You may already be familiar with using a similar product but please take time to read these instructions which have been written to ensure you get the very best from your purchase.

Throughout the remainder of this user guide the Technika Advanced will be referred to as the 'TV'.

HDMI

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the next generation of digital interface. Unlike conventional connections, it transmits uncompressed digital and audio signals using a single cable. This TV supports high-definition video input via the HDMI socket on the back of the TV.

Safety is Important

To ensure your safety and the safety of others, please read the Safety precautions BEFORE you operate this product.

Keep this information in a safe place for future reference.

When does switchover happen?

*Copeland switches on October 17, 2007

The exact date you switch depends on the transmitter you are served by. To check when you switch, go to Digital UK's postcode checker on www.digitaluk.co.uk

Check your ITV news service or look at Teletext page 106 to see what TV region you're in.

Important information regarding the digital TV switchover

Television in the UK is going digital, bringing us all more choice and new services. Starting late 2007 and ending in 2012, television services in the UK will go completely digital, TV region by TV region.

How the switchover affects your TV equipment.

Your new TV has a digital tuner built in, which means it is ready to receive the Freeview signal by simply connecting it into your aerial socket (you can check if you can get digital TV through your aerial now or whether you will have to wait until the switchover at www.digitaluk.co.uk)

When the TV switchover happens in your area, there are at least two occasions when you will need to re-tune your TV in order to continue receiving your existing TV channels and also to pick up new ones. Digital UK, the body leading the digital switchover, will advise you when you need to retune during the switchover.

How to retune.

Retuning your TV is a very quick and simple process. We recommend that you retune every few months to ensure you are receiving the very latest TV and radio channels that are broadcast.

• In digital/freeview mode, on the remote control press 'menu' quickly followed by 8-8-8-8 (so press the number 8 four times)
• You will now enter the ‘First time installation’ mode. (if you do not, please refer to the section called ‘getting started’ later in this user guide)

- Simply press 'OK' or 'Enter' on the remote control and your TV will retune.

If you do not retune your TV when advised to do so by Digital UK, you may lose some or all of your channels until you do re-tune.

If you are missing any channels, it may be that they are not available in your area, or that your TV aerial needs upgrading.

For help and support regarding the digital switchover, please contact Digital UK:

Telephone: [phone] (calls charged at local call rate, approx 3p per minute daytime or 1p per minute evenings from a BT landline) Digital UK website: www.digitaluk.co.uk

If you require technical or warranty support on this television, please contact the manufacturer helpline, do not contact Digital UK unless your query is regarding the digital switchover.

SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE

Take note of the following safety information which appears on the back of this TV.

CAUTION! TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE ANY COVER OR SCREWS. NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying this unit.

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is present within this unit.

Keep these instructions

• Do not use this TV near water.
• Clean only with a slightly damp cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings.
• Install in accordance with the supplied Quick Start Guide and this User Guide.
• Do not install or operate near any heat sources such as radiators, stoves, or other apparatus that produce heat.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, and the point where it exits from the TV.
• Do not allow the power cord to overhang the edge of a table.
• Unplug this TV during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
• To avoid interference, switch this TV off while operating other radio devices in the immediate vicinity. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the TV has been damaged in any way, such as the power cord or plug being damaged, liquid being spilled on or objects have fallen onto the TV, the TV has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

WARNING! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS TV TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. THE TV MUST NOT BE EXPOSED TO DRIPPING AND SPLASHING AND NO OBJECTS FILLED WITH LIQUIDS SHOULD BE PLACED ON THE TV.

CAUTION! USAGE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS EXPOSURE.

Important

This TV generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communication. However, this is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the TV does cause harmful interference to electrical devices, which can be determined by turning the TV off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

• Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the external device and the TV.
• Connect the external device into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the TV is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION Mains Supply

The mains operating voltage is detailed on the rating plate on the rear of the TV.

The mains lead on this equipment may be supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse must be used of the same rating. If the fuse cover is detachable never use the plug with the cover removed. If a replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, dispose of it immediately, having first removed the fuse, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

WARNINGS

Screen Burn

A characteristic of LCD TV Panels is that displaying the same image for a long time may cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen. This is called screen burn. Most pictures shown on your TV will be constantly moving and fill the screen.

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.
  • Picture-in-Picture and Multi Picture-in-Picture: Do not view for long periods of time using the Picture-in-Picture or Multi Picture-in-Picture functions.
  • Time Displays
• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long periods 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.

Note: To prevent screen burn if viewing any of the above for long periods of time, reduce contrast and brightness when viewing. Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.

How do I dispose of this product?

UK: Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Separate disposal facilities exist. For your nearest facilities, please see www.recycle-more.co.uk or instore for details.

ROI: Produced after 13th August 2005. Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your Local Authority or retailer for recycling advice.

CONNECTING THE TV

WARNING! ENSURE THE TV AND ALL ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT IS UNPLUGGED FROM THE MAINS BEFORE MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS!

Connecting the TV Antenna

Connect the TV antenna to the aerial socket with a 75 ohm co-axial plug. For best results use a high gain TV aerial, preferably roof or loft mounted.

• To improve picture quality in a poor signal area, purchase and install a signal amplifier.
• If the antenna needs to be split for two TVs, use a 2-Way Signal Splitter (not supplied).

Connecting External Devices

The Quick Start Guide shows the simplest and most effective way of connecting your TV to ancillary equipment. Alternate methods are listed below.

Line drawing of a multi-tiered antenna or antenna array mounted on a stand (no text or symbols)

NOTE: The TV will connect through the HDMI cable by default. Only use the HDMI cable and one other option. Connecting more than one option may cause interference.

HDMI lead

You can connect this TV to a compatible device using a HDMI lead. This method will give the best picture.

Connect the cable from the HDMI equipment to the TV HDMI socket.

SCART lead

You can connect this TV to a compatible device using a SCART lead. The connection uses component video signals, i.e. the red, green and blue (RGB) content of the video are sent on separate signals.

VGA cable

You can use your TV as a monitor for your personal computer by using a VGA cable. Sound from your personal computer may also be played through the TV.

This requires the audio output of the personal computer to be connected to the Audio Input socket (PC) of the TV.

S-Video lead

You can connect this TV to a compatible device using an S-VIDEO lead.

GETTING STARTED - INITIAL SET UP

IMPORTANT - AFTER TUNING DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 20 SECONDS SO THE CHANNEL INFORMATION CAN BE STORED.

TUNING IN

IMPORTANT — Please ensure the TV has reached room temperature before connecting the power for the first time

1) Connect the mains lead to your electrical outlet
2) Connect the RF Cable supplied to the 'RF' on the rear of the TV and connect the other end of the cable to your TV Aerial outlet

3) Install batteries in the remote control and press the [STANDBY] button to turn on the TV.

The ‘First Time Installation’ menu should now appear. If it does not, please press [LCD-MENU] then 8-8-8-8 and the menu will appear.

4) Press [OK] on the remote control whilst 'OK' is highlighted on screen.

Tuning will now take place.

If no channels are found the following screen will appear, please refer to additional information below.

RE-TUNING TV / DIGITAL SWITCHOVER

In order to ensure you have the latest channels available tuned into your TV, it is necessary to perform a scan/re-tune every couple of months. You will also need to do this when your region switches over to Digital. You will be notified by Digital UK when your region switches.

1) Press [LCD-MENU] then 8-8-8-8. The first time installation menu will appear
2) Press [OK] on the remote control whilst 'OK' is highlighted on screen

Tuning will now take place and any new channels will be added automatically in the correct places as broadcasted.

TYPICAL SET-UP

Once you have connected a 'Signal booster' you will need to retune the TV in order to receive all of the channels.

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 recieve 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
