Please note the following information when setting up your television set.
This television set is designed to receive and display video and audio signals. Any other use is strictly prohibited.
Best viewing distance is 5 times the diagonal length of the screen.
External light falling on the screen impairs picture quality.
To assure sufficient ventilation make sure there is enough space around the television set in the wall unit.
The television set is designed for use in indoors. If you do use it at outdoors, please ensure that it is protected from humid environments such as rain or splashing water as these will create risk of safety.
- Never use the television set in humid environments.
- Do not put objects containing liquid such as vase on the television set. The liquid in it may spill and cause risk of safety.
Place the television set on a solid, level surface.
- Do not place objects such as newspapers on the television set or cloth or similar items beneath it.
- Do not place the television set close to heating units or under direct sunlight, as this will impair cooling.
Higher ambient temperature will shorten the service life of the television set.
- Do not open the television set under any circumstances. Safety risk may arise and also the guarantee of the product can be void if the television set is opened.
Make sure that the power cord or the AC/DC adaptor (if supplied) is not damaged.
- Television set can only be operated with the power cable or the AC/DC adapter supplied with the product.
If the mains plug of the television is grounded, always make sure that it is connected to a grounded socket.
Plug the device into the mains socket only after you have connected the external devices and the antenna.
Make sure that the mains plug/socket of the television is comfortably accessible.
- Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the television is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains or the antenna cable. Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.
Clean the television screen and cabinet with a soft and dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use wet cloth or detergent (glass cleaners, cologne and all cleaning agents alike). Only use plain water to dampen the cloth.
- When deciding where to install the television set, do not forget that most furniture surfaces are coated with various types of lacquer or plastic which contain chemical additives. These may cause corrosion to the feet of the television, thus resulting in stains on the surface of the furniture.
Screen of your LCD/LED television conforms to the highest quality standards and has been controlled with regard to pixel faults.
Despite the great care taken in manufacturing, technological reasons make it impossible to completely discount the possibility that some pixels may be faulty. Provided they are within the thresholds specified by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by the warranty.
To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times.
Please use your television at a location as far as possible from cellular phones, microwave ovens and similar devices operating with high frequency waves. Otherwise your television may malfunction because of such radio waves.
- Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as direct sunlight, fire, etc.
Do not use old and unused batteries together.
Only replace the exhausted batteries with those having the same model, value and properties.
By ensuring proper disposal of these batteries, you will have contributed in prevention of potential hazards on the environment and human health that may arise from inappropriate disposal of the batteries.
Warning About the Device Package:
The package of the product can be recycled. Please ensure that the packaging is disposed separately conforming with the local regulations to make sure that the product packaging is recycled environmentally.
Caution:
If you want to use a wall bracket for your television, make sure you read the assembly instructions for the wall bracket carefully or have your specialist dealer mount it for you.
When buying the wall bracket, make sure that all the fastening points needed on the television are there on the wall bracket and that they are all used when it is mounted.
If wall hanger is not going to be used, use your television only with the stand supplied in the box. As your television may tipover without a stand or with a different stand, this will create risk of safety.
Things to do for energy saving
- Do not leave your television turned on if you are not watching it; switch it to standby. If you will not use your television for a long time, leave it in off mode by switching off from the mains (if any) or by unplugging.
Prevent surrounding noises in the room where you watch your television. Keeping the volume of your television at regular levels will help you to save energy. - When determining the position of your television, try to place it so that the sunlight will not fall directly onto the screen of the television but will come from behind of it. Thus, you can use your television without increasing the contrast setting and save energy.
Special features of your television set
- Your television set enables you to receive and watch digital stations (via DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C), including the High Definition (HD) ones. At present, reception for these digital television stations in High Definition is only possible in some countries in Europe.
Although this television meets the current DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C standards as of August 2012, its compatibility with future DVB-S digital satellite broadcasts, DVB-T digital terrestrial broadcasts and DVB-C digital cable broadcasts is not guaranteed.
This television can receive and process all analogue and all unencrypted digital stations. This television set has an integrated digital and analogue receiver. The digital receiver unit converts the signals from digital stations to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
The TV guide (only for digital stations) tells you of any schedule changes at short notice, and provides an overview of all the stations' schedules for the next few days. Quite a lot of content such as programme data, channel logos, players, images, fragments, etc. can be reached via the internet through internet connection thanks to the online feature of the TV guide. Detailed information for each channel - if provided by the broadcasting channel - is included in the electronic programme guide. - You can connect various data media, for example, an external hard drive, a USB memory stick or a digital camera to the USB sockets. Using the file browser, you can then select and play the file formats you want (for example, MP4, MP3 or JPEG data).
- With the Time Shift function, you can easily stop and resume a programme with the remote control in a fast and simple way. Programme is recorded to the external data medium.
- You can record any digital TV channel you have chosen, if no limitation has been imposed by the broadcaster.
TV channel is transformed by your television and saved to a USB external data medium.
You can recall and play saved programs from the archive.
While a recording is in progress, you can select and watch another recording from the archive.
For detailed information about saving and playing TV programs, please see page 53.
■ With the 3D function and 3D glasses of your TV, you can watch 3D movies in the comfort of your home with the reality of a theater. LED technology has been used in this television to provide you with the best experience in 3D feature. To join the 3D world, just put on the Grundig 3D glasses.
Smart Inter@ctive TV 3.0 feature provides your TV with Internet applications when your TV is connected to Internet. You can surf through the web pages, visit popular video and photo sharing sites as well as social networks with these applications.
Wireless USB keyboard and mouse support in the Web browsing of your television facilitates surfing through the internet pages for the user.
- DLNA feature allows you to use a wired or wireless (with wireless USN network device) local network to access your content that were recorded with DLNA compatible devices we use at our daily lives such as a PC, mobile phone or NAS (Network Attached Storage) which are operated as DMS (Digital Medial Server). While watching TV, you can play any content you like at any time by using DMC applications on your mobile device or PC without starting DLNA application.
By using DMR feature of your television, you can start playing contents on another mobile device or PC and you can perform controls from these devices in lieu of the TV. For this, you need to have DMC (Digital Media Controller) devices on your devices. In this way, by starting DLNA application on your TV with DMC-supported applications, or without having to start the same, you can start and control the content from your mobile devices or PCs.
Devices that contain and serve video, music or image files are called Server. This television receives video, music and image files from the server through home network, allowing you to access and play such media even when your television is located in a different room then the server. A DLNA compatible device such as a PC, mobile phone, NAS or a NAS-like (Network attached storage) device which operates as a DMS (Digital Media Server) is required in order to use home network.
Receiving digital stations
To receive digital satellite stations (DVB-S) you need a satellite antenna.
To receive digital stations (DVB-T) you need a digital rooftop or indoor antenna (passive or active indoor antenna with its own power supply).
The antenna cable of the cable TV network that broadcast in DVB-C must be plugged into TV in order to receive the DVB-C broadcasts.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every station has its own transmission frequency. Instead, several stations are grouped into what are known as bouquets on a regional or national level.
You can find the current transmission information on teletext from various broadcasters, or look in a TV guide or on the Internet.
Various digital television stations from private broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C). Watching these stations and the recording and playback functions are only possible with the appropriate CI module and a SmartCard. Ask your specialist dealer.
GRUNDIG SCR System
- Your TV supports SCR system (Single Channel Router). With SCR satellite system, several users can individually receive all signals from the satellite simultaneously.
Important notes on environmental protection
Those items mentioned below will help you reduce the consumption of natural resources as well as save your money by reducing electricity bills.
If you will not be using the TV set for several days, it should be disconnected from the mains for environmental and safety reasons. TV will not consume energy in this condition.
If the TV set has main switch, it will be enough to turn the TV off via main switch. TV will reduce energy consumption almost to Zero Watt.
TV consumes less energy on stand by mode. However, some TV sets may have features such as on timer, that require the TV set to be left in standby to work correctly.
TV consumes less energy when brightness is reduced.
Notes on still images
Watching the same image for a long time on the screen may cause a still image remain feebly on the background. Feeble image(s) on the background is originated from LCD/LED technology and does not require any action under guarantee. To avoid such cases and/or minimize the impact, you may observe the tips below.
- Do not allow the same TV channel to stay on the screen for a very long time. Channel logos may cause this situation.
- Do not allow the images, which are not full screen, to constantly stay on the screen; if not streamed in full screen format by the broadcaster, you can convert the images to full screen by changing picture formats.
Higher brightness and/or contrast values will lead this impact to appear faster; therefore, you are recommended to watch your TV in the lowest brightness and contrast levels.
Connecting the antenna and power cord
1 To receive digital satellite channels (DVB-S), connect the satellite antenna cable to the antenna socket SATELLITE on the television set; and / or
2a To receive terrestrial digital broadcasters (DVB-T) connect the cable for the rooftop or indoor antenna (passive or active indoor antenna with its own power supply) to the antenna socket «ANT IN« on the television set; or
2b To receive digital cable channels (DVB-C) connect the cable for the rooftop antenna to the antenna socket ANT IN on the television set; or
2c To receive analogue TV channels, connect the cable for the rooftop antenna to the antenna socket ANT IN on the television set.
Note:
- When connecting an indoor antenna you may have to try it out at different positions until you get the best reception.
3 Plug the power cord into the wall socket.
Note:
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the external devices and the antenna.
- Do not use an adapter plug or extension cable which does not meet the applicable safety standards. Do not make changes on the power cord.

Enhanced picture settings
The "enhanced picture settings" are in principal digital image improvements which, however, should be only used when necessary when picture quality and transmission is excellent. They may well improve the display with poor material, but may adversely affect the display where transmission and picture quality are excellent.
Backlight - Manual setting for back lighting (only active if dynamic back lighting is switched to "OFF"). This setting also directly impacts power consumption.
»Dynamic Backlight« - Here the device optimally adjusts the back lighting for the picture content by regulating the back lighting depending on the average picture brightness. If a picture has predominately dark areas, then the black level displayed is improved by downward adjustment of the back lighting (in this case the display of the dark areas is improved), and with predominantly bright picture material the back lighting is maximised in order to display these areas more brightly.
Vibrant Colour - Increases the colour contrast and the contrast adjustment. This setting is mostly too strong for use with normal pictures and should only be used where necessary (low or off) otherwise nuances in the image can be suppressed.
- «Gamma« - This setting establishes which brightness value should be displayed for which digital transmission value. Most recordings are transmitted with a gamma value of 2.2 (all Windows PCs and newer PCs with a MAC operating system work with this, older MAC systems and transmissions without colour profile mostly operate with a gamma value of 1.8).
Dynamic Contrast - The function dynamically and optimally adjusts the contrast for the respective picture content by analysing images and then altering this depending in a change in contrast. This increase the contract, however may also reduce the visible brightness levels in the picture.
Perfect Clear - Improves the general image by means of a gentle blue hue (giving the appearance of greater sharpness) and improves the black level by setting this entirely to black from specific shade of back. This reduces the visible grey values in the dark areas of the picture.
■ Film mode detects and processes feature films automatically for all channel sources. This means you will always receive an optimal picture.
This functions in the modi 480i, 576i and 1080i in TV playback and for other channel sources.
If the «Film mode« is switched on for programmes without a feature film signal, minor problems such as picture freeze, defective subtitles or fine lines in the picture could occur.
MEMC - Improves the display of moving images through the additional computation of intermediate pictures and is only available for devices from 32^ . It is displayed with a PPR of 400 (Picture Perfection Rate). If the adjustment value is too high, this may result in ghosting with poor transmission due to the incorrect computation of the intermediate pictures.
■ Nois Reduction « - Reduces the visible 'snow' by displaying the picture a little less sharply and creating a slight blurring. Should therefore be used minimally with good picture material.
■ «Block Noise Reduction« - This function can only be selected with digital reception sources and AV presets. It reduces any interference from artefacts (pixel blocks) from digital programmes due to MPEG compression (such as from DVB-T receivers and lower transmission rates or DVD players).
