Connecting peripheral equipment
The television has 2 external sockets situated at the back of the set (EXT1 and EXT2) and sockets on the side. Press the AV key on the remote control to display Source List and select TV or peripheral equipment connected to EXT1, EXT2/SVHS2, AV/SVHS3, PC or HD.
The EXT1 socket has audio, CVBS/RGB inputs and audio, CVBS outputs.

The side connections has audio inputs, CVBS/S-VHS inputs, headphone out.
Video Recorder
HD equipment
Computer
Video recorder (only)
Carry out the connections shown opposite, using a good quality euroconnector cable.
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. 12).
To reproduce the video recorder picture, press 0 key.
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.
Make the connections as shown opposite.
With the AV key, select HD.
For more information on using HD mode see page 17.
PC with DVI
Connect the monitor output (DVI) of your computer to the DVI-I In of the TV. Connect the sound output Audio out of the computer to the input DVI Audio In of the TV.
PC with VGA
Connect the monitor output (VGA) of your computer via a VGA/DVI adaptor to the DVI In of the TV. Connect the sound output Audio out of the computer to the input DVI Audio In of the TV.
For more information on using PC mode see page 16.
Connecting peripheral equipment
Other equipment
Side connections
Amplifier connection
Common interface
Satellite receiver, decoder, CDV, games, etc.
Carry out the connections shown opposite.
To optimise picture quality, connect the equipment which produces the RGB signals (digital decoder, games, etc.) to EXT1, and the equipment which produces the S-VHS signals (S-VHS and Hi-8 video recorders, certain DVD drives) to EXT2 and all other equipment to either EXT1 or EXT2.
To select connected equipment
Press the AV key to select EXT1,EXT2/S-VHS2 (SVHS signals from the EXT2 socket).
Make the connections as shown opposite.
With the AV key, select AV/S-VHS3.
For a mono set, connect the sound signal to the AUDIO L (or AUDIO R) input. The sound automatically comes out of the left and right speakers of the set.
Headphones
When headphones are connected, the sound on the TV set will be cut. The VOLUME -/+ keys are used to adjust the volume level. The headphone impedance must be between 32 and 600 Ohms.
To connect to a hi-fi system, use an audio connection cable and connect the television's "SPDIF" output to a "DIGITAL IN" input on the amplifier (amplifier with coaxial digital input).
Note : If you select AC3 sound, you must have your TV connected to a Home Theatre System or amplifier. In this mode, no sound will be heard from the TV speakers directly.
A common interface is available to connect a CAM (conditional access module) and a smartcard. Please contact your service provider to get more information about these modules.
Note : the television should always be switched off before any module is inserted in the common interface slot.
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 Tune (p. 12) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. If you are using an indoor aerial, reception may be difficult in certain conditions. You can improve reception by rotating the aerial. If the reception remains poor, you will need to use an external aerial |
| No picture | Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? (p. 12). 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. |
| 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. 12). 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. 18). |
| 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 battery. |
| Standby | 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. |
| 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. |

Positioning the TV
For the best results, choose a position where light does not fall directly on the screen, and at some distance away from radiators or other sources of heat. Leave a space of at least 5cm all around the TV for ventilation, making sure that curtains, cupboards etc. cannot obstruct the air flow through the ventilation apertures. The TV is intended for use in a domestic environment only and should never be operated or stored in excessively hot or humid atmospheres.
General Points
Please take note of the section entitled 'Tips' at the end of this booklet.
Interference
The Department of Trade and Industry operates a Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV licence holders improve reception of BBC and IBA programmes where they are being spoilt by interference.
If your dealer cannot help, ask at a main Post Office for the booklet "How to Improve Television and Radio Reception".
Mains connection
Before connecting the TV to the mains, check that the mains supply voltage corresponds to the voltage printed on the type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If the mains voltage is different, consult your dealer.
Important
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13AMP plug. Should it become necessary to replace the mains fuse, this must be replaced with a fuse of the same value as indicated on the plug.
-
Remove fuse cover and fuse.
-
The replacement fuse must comply with BS 1362 and have the ASTA approval mark. If the fuse is lost, make contact with your retailer in order to verify the correct type.
-
Refit the fuse cover.
In order to maintain conformity to the EMC directive, the mains plug on this product must not be removed.
Connecting the aerial
The aerial should be connected to the socket marked at the back of the set. An inferior aerial is likely to result in a poor, perhaps unstable picture with ghost images and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft or set-top aerials are often inadequate. Your dealer will know from experience the most suitable type for your locality. Should you wish to use the set in conjunction with other equipment, which connects to the aerial socket such as TV games, or a video camera it is recommended that these be connected via a combiner unit to avoid repeated connection and disconnection of the aerial plug.
Fitting the stand (if provided)
Use only the stand provided with the set, making sure that the fixings are properly tightened. A diagram showing how to assemble the stand is packed with the stand. Never use a make-shift stand, or legs fixed with woodscrews.
