Glossary

EasyLink: Digital link between the set and the video recorder which allows a direct transfer of certain information such as channel setting or programming.

PIP (Picture in Picture): Superimposed window that displays a small picture in the main picture. In PC mode you can display an image from the TV or other appliance (e.g. DVD or video recorder) in a small window.

RGB signals : These are the three video signals, Red Green Blue, which make up the picture. Using these signals improves picture quality.

S-VHS signals : These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards. The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are recorded separately on the tape. This provides better picture quality than with standard video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C signals are combined to provide only one video signal.

NICAM sound : Process by which digital sound can be transmitted.

System : Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries. There are different standards: BG, DK, I, and L L'.The SYSTEM setting (p. 6) is used to select these different standards. This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding. Pal is used in the majority of European countries, Secam in France, the CIS and the majority of African countries. The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC.The inputs EXT1 and EXT2 are used to read NTSC coded recordings.

16:9 : Refers to the ratio between the length and height of the screen. Wide screen televisions have a ration of 16/9, conventional screen TV sets have a ration of 4/3.

Connecting peripheral equipment

Depending on the version the TV is equipped with one or two EXT1 and EXT2 sockets. A special adaptor is supplied to connect to EXT1 and can route the leads to the back.

The EXT1 socket has audio, CVBS/RGB inputs and audio, CVBS outputs.

The EXT2 socket (if available) has audio, CVBS/S-VHS inputs and audio, CVBS outputs.

Video recorder

VCR FRAINT

Video recorder (or DVD recorder)

Carry out the connections shown opposite, using a good quality euroconnector cable. If your video recorder has the Easylink function, use the EXT2 socket.

If your video recorder does not have a euroconnector socket, the only connection possible is via the aerial cable. You will therefore need to tune in your video recorder's test signal and assign it programme number 0 (refer to manual store, p. 6).

To reproduce the video recorder picture, press ①.

Video recorder with decoder

Connect the decoder to the second euroconnector socket of the video recorder. You will then be able to record scrambled transmissions.

Other equipment

Satellite receiver, decoder, DVD, games, etc.

For TV sets with 2 SCART connectors, preferably connect the equipment delivering RGB signals (digital decoders, DVD players, games consoles, etc.) to EXT1 and the equipment delivering S-VHS signals (S-VHS and Hi-8 VCRs) to EXT2.

VCE DVD MODE

To select connected equipment

Press the ⏻ key to select EXT1 and on the versions with 2 scarts, EXT2, S-VHS2 (S-VHS signals from the EXT2 socket) and EXT3.

Most equipment (decoder, video recorder) carries out the switching itself.

The AV and S-VIDEO connections are located under the left panel or, for large screen sizes, under the right panel. Make the connections as shown opposite. With the ⏻ key, select EXT3.

For a monophonic device, connect the audio signal to the AUDIO L input. The sound automatically comes out of the left and right speakers of the set.

When headphones are connected, the sound on the TV set will be cut. The ⏻ P ⭕ keys are used to adjust the volume level.

The headphone impedance must be between 32 and 600 Ohms.

To connect a Hi-fi unit use an audio connection cord and connect the L and R Audio out of the TV to an Audio in L and R from the Hi-fi unit. If you have an active speaker connect the Subwoofer out of the TV to the Subwoofer in of the speaker.

Connect the monitor output of your computer to the PC input (VGA) of the TV. Connect the sound output Audio out L and R of the computer to the input Audio in (PC) L and R of the TV.

For more information on using PC mode see page 8.

Configure the computer on 1024 x 768, 60 Hz for optimum resolution.

Attention: if you use another resolution, the PIP function may not work. In this case a warning message is displayed on the screen.

Tips

Poor reception	The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your picture: see "fine tuning" (p.7) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. Does your antenna enable you to receive broadcasts in this frequency range (UHF or VHF band)?
No picture	Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? (p. 7). Poorly connected euroconnector cables or aerial sockets are often the cause of picture or sound problems (sometimes the connectors can become half disconnected if the TV set is moved or turned). Check all connections.
Peripheral equipment gives a black and white picture	You have not selected the right socket with the ☐ key: S-VHS2 instead of EXT2. To play a video cassette, check that it has been recorded under the same standard (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) which can be replayed by the video recorder.
No sound	If on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that you do not have the correct TV system. Modify the SYSTEM setting (p. 7). The amplifier connected to the TV does not deliver any sound? Check that you have not confused the audio output with the audio input.
PC and PIP modes don't work?	Check that you have configured the computer on a compatible display resolution (see p. 15). You can't get the radio sound in PC mode? When PIP is active the sound is forced to TV. You must de-activate PIP, go into radio mode and then come back to PC mode.
Remote control	The TV set does not react to the remote control; the indicator on the set no longer flashes when you use the remote control? Replace the batteries.
Standby	When you switch the TV set on it remains in standby mode and the indication LOCKED is displayed when you use the keys on the TV set? The CHILD LOCK function is switched on (p. 10). If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode. To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power consumption when in standby mode (less than 1 W).
Cleaning the set	Only use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing of your set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
Recycling	The materials used in your set are either reusable or can be recycled. To minimise environmental waste, specialist companies collect used appliances and dismantle them after retrieving any materials that can be used again (ask your dealer for further details).
Still no results?	Disconnect the mains plug of the TV for 30 seconds then reconnect it. If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your dealer's after-sales service.
