NOTE

• Avoid keeping a fixed image on the set's screen for prolonged periods of time. The fixed image may become permanently imprinted on the screen. Use a screen saver when possible.
• There may be interference relating to resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or brightness in PC mode. Change the PC mode to another resolution or change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the PC graphic card can not be changed, change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC graphic card.
• The synchronization input waveform for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies are separate.
• Connect the signal cable from the RGB output port of the PC to the RGB (PC) port of the TV or the signal cable from the HDMI output port of the PC to the HDMI/DVI IN port on the TV.
• Connect the audio cable from the PC to the Audio input on the TV. (Audio cables are not included with the TV).
  • If using a sound card, adjust PC sound as required.
• If the graphic card on the PC does not output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, connect only one of either RGB or HDMI/DVI IN to display the PC output on the TV.
• If the graphic card on the PC does output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, set the TV to either RGB or HDMI. (The other mode is set to Plug and Play automatically by the TV.)
• DOS mode may not work depending on the video card if you use an HDMI to DVI cable.
• If you use too long an RGB-PC cable that is too long, there may be interference on the screen. We recommend using under 5 m of cable. This provides the best picture quality.

When does switchover happen?

Capeland 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.

get set for digital √

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

Please see overleaf to find out when your area switches to digital. Digital UK is the independent, non-profit organisation leading the process of digital TV switchover in the UK. Digital UK provides impartial information on what people need to do to prepare for the move to digital, and when they need to do it.

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 plugging it into your aerial socket (check if you can get digital TV through your aerial now, or whether you'll have to wait until 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 TV switchover, will advise you when you need to re-tune during the switchover.

If you choose to connect your TV to satellite or cable with a digital box then it will not be affected by switchover, and you won't need to re-tune.

How to re-tune:

To find out how to re-tune your TV, check your manufacturer's instructions for details. Or see below for a typical sequence:

1. With your TV in digital TV mode, press 'Menu' on your remote control. (Some TVs will ask you for a code. If you have not already changed it, the default code is usually 0000, or check your instruction book.)

2. From the Menu options on screen, select 'SETUP'. Select 'Auto Tuning' to re-tune your digital TV (not 'add channels'). You may have to wait a couple of minutes for the re-tune to complete.

*Also sometimes referred to as 'Update', 'Rescan', 'Replace', 'Auto-Tuning', 'Channel Search', 'First Time Install', or 'Store Channels'.

1. If you do not re-tune your channels when advised to do so by Digital UK, you may lose some or all of your channels until you do re-tune. You should re-tune your TV every few months to check for any new channels.

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

If you have any questions, please contact your equipment supplier or call Digital UK on 0845 6 50 50 50 or visit www.digitaluk.co.uk
