Frequently Asked Questions - MD42598 MEDION

What to do if the screen does not turn on?

Check that the main switch is set to I and that the power cord is plugged in. If the red indicator is lit, press a button on the remote control. Otherwise, try another power outlet.

Why is there no picture but sound?

Check that the input source is correct (TV, VIDEO, PC). Make sure the video cable is properly connected. If the picture is black, adjust the brightness and contrast in the Image menu.

The remote control does not work, what should I do?

Replace the batteries with new ones (LR03 AAA). Check that there is no obstacle between the remote control and the infrared sensor. Move closer within 7 meters.

No sound despite picture being displayed?

Press the Mute button on the remote control to restore sound. Increase the volume with the Vol+ buttons. Check that the speakers are not set to minimum in the Sound menu.

How to use the Picture in picture (PIP) function?

Press the PIP button on the remote control. You can adjust the size and position of the PIP window in the PIP menu. Use the F2 button to swap the main and secondary images.

The picture shows horizontal bands or is poorly centered?

Use the Auto-adjust function in the Display menu. If necessary, manually adjust the horizontal and vertical position in the same menu.

How to access teletext?

Select a TV channel, then press the TEXT button on the remote control. Use the numeric keys to enter the page number. The colored keys (red, green, yellow, blue) allow navigation according to TOP/FLOF mode.

Can I connect my computer to this television?

Yes, connect the PC via the DVI-I port using the supplied cable (DVI to VGA adapter). Turn on the screen in PC mode with the PC button on the remote control. Adjust the resolution in your computer's settings (recommended: 848x480).

How to clean the screen safely?

Turn off the device and unplug it. Wait a few minutes. Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Never use chemicals, alcohol or abrasive cleaners.

What to do if the screen displays a permanently frozen image (risk of burn-in)?

Avoid displaying static images for a long time. Use a screen saver or alternate content. If traces persist, reduce contrast and brightness, and display full-screen moving images for several hours.

Mainsconnectionandoperatorcontrol

The display is completely disconnected from the electrical mainsonly when themains switchisswitchedoffandthemains cable is pulled out of the unit or the plug is pulled out of the plug receptacle. Connect the display only to a plug receptacle that has been installed in compliance with regulations with hearing contacts, themains voltage of which complies with the technical specifications of the unit. Ensure that the mainplug and plug receptacle are accessible at all times. Differing conditions can cause anelectrical hazard, fireor failure of the unit.

Useonlythemainscablesupplied.

Never remove the plug from the receptacle by pulling the actual mains cable. Avoid laying the mains cable in the vicinity of photobjects.
Dangeroffireandelectricshock.

If absent for a long period of time or if there is lightning, for safety reasons pull the mains plug out of the receptacle and the building's aerialplugoutoftheaerialsocket.
This is a precautionary measure to prevent a possible fire, avoid damage to the unit and the danger of an electric shock.

Always switch off the display and the signal source before connecting the two units.

Dangerofolectricshock.

The display is equipped with an attached glass filter plate. If the unit is exposed to an excessive load, e.g. due to shock, vibration, bending or heat shock, the glass surface can break. Do not subject the glass surface to any pressure or knocks. If the glass is cracked, pulloutthemainsplugimmediatelyanddonottouchthefragmentswithyourbarehands.

2.2Generalinformation

The display you have purchased meets the highest quality requirements in this product segment and has been checked for pixel defects. Despite taking the greatest care during production of these units, for technological reasons it cannot be excluded absolutely that thereares some pixels with defects.

Certain conditions can cause your display to hum. The humming generally comes from the mains voltages supply and can occur through the connection of different earth conductors. You can provide aremedy by putting gaso-called sheath current filter between the incoming aerial lead and the aerial input socket on the display. Sheath current filters are available in the retail trade in the formofasmallinlineplug.

For technical reasons the unit can generate noise inside itself. However, this must not exceed the value specified in the appliancespecification.

If your display is connected to an external aerial, the latter must be earthed as protection against electric shocks and static charging. Theearthingmustcomplywiththevalidregulations.

Cleaningandcare

Before installation, cleaning or care, switch off the unit and pull the mains plug out of the plug receptacle. Wait for several minutes so that the capacitors in the unit can fully discharge, because the display generates a high voltage internally for the gas discharge.

Forcleaninguseonlyaslightlymoistenedsoftcloth. You should avoid chemical solvents and cleaning agents because they can damage the surfaces.

Immediately pull out the mains plug, if foreign bodies such as water, other liquids, metal parts etc. get into the display. Never attempt to reach into the unit with any object or with your hands.

To avoid aching eyes and obtain an optimized viewing distance, the distance from the unit should be five to six times the display's diagonal dimension. In your television room it should be so light that you could also read. The contrast is lost with too much brightness. Too little light strains the eyes due to the alternation between light and dark on the display.
