Frequently Asked Questions - 23/50G-BB-FTCDUP-UK Technika

Why are some menu options grayed out?

Some options are only available in certain input sources. For example, HDMI settings are only active when that source is selected.

How can I stop the TV from automatically turning off after 4 hours?

1) In the Picture menu, de-select Eco-home. 2) In the Time menu, scroll to Auto standby and select OFF.

I tuned Digital TV but I'm not receiving all channels or the picture breaks up. What should I do?

Ensure you are in a Freeview coverage area (check www.freeview.co.uk) and use an appropriate aerial: an outdoor high-gain wideband aerial is recommended. A portable indoor aerial is unlikely to work.

The TV does not remember my channels after switching off. How can I fix this?

Perform a First Time Installation from the Setup menu. This will rescan and store all channels properly.

I connected my PS3 via HDMI but get no picture or sound. What's wrong?

1) Ensure the TV source is set to the correct HDMI input. 2) Check your PS3 video/output settings as per the PS3 manual.

I inserted a USB memory stick but the TV does not recognize it. Why?

The USB stick must be formatted to FAT32. Drives formatted as NTFS or exFAT are not compatible.

I have forgotten the password I set for System Lock. How can I reset it?

Use the master password 4711. This will allow you to access the menu and reset the password.

The DVD disc I inserted is not playing. What can I check?

1) Ensure the disc is inserted correctly (label side up). 2) Check the disc is clean and not scratched. 3) Copied discs may not play. 4) The DVD player is set to Region 2; to change region, see www.umc-uk.co.uk.

How do I eject a stuck DVD?

Press and hold the Stop/Eject button on the remote or the TV for about 4 seconds.

Can I use a USB portable hard drive larger than 32GB for recording?

Yes, but it must be formatted to FAT32. Since Windows only formats up to 32GB, you may need a third-party utility. Visit the website for help.

Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other Fixed Image Displays

The extended use of fi xed image program material can cause a permanent "shadow image" on the LCD/LED panel.

This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fi xed image. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.
2. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
3. Turn the power off when not in actual use.

Examples of images that you need to watch out for are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

• TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos and pricing displays-especially if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.
- Time Displays
- Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for a long period of time
• TV/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disc content
- Pause Mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode for long periods of time, e.g. When watching DVDs or videos.

Important - Once 'shadow image/screen burn' occurs, it will never disappear and is not repairable under warranty.

How do I dispose of this product?

UK: Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Separate disposal facilities exist. For your nearest facilities, please see www.recycle-more.co.uk or in store for details.

ROI: Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Separate disposal facilities exist. Check with your Local Authority or retailer for recycling advice.

Batteries

• Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, excessive heat, prolonged sunshine or fire as this may cause leakage, explosion or ignition.
• Observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries.
• Do not use different types of batteries together or mix old and new batteries.
• Dispose of batteries in an environmentally friendly way.
• Certain regions may regulate the disposal of batteries. Please consult your local authority.

Notice for PVR models only

This TV is designed to operate with USB memory sticks up to 32GB. It is possible to use either a USB memory stick or a USB portable Hard Drive of a larger capacity, however, it must be formatted to the FAT32 fi le system in order to operate correctly. At the time of printing this user guide, Windows XP/Vista computers are only capable of formatting up to 32GB, therefore, you will need a software programme/utility to format larger USB drives/hard drives to FAT32. Additional help and support is available from the web site.

USB RECORD - DIGITAL/FREEVIEW MODE

USB RECORD – DIGITAL/FREEVIEW MODE

Built into this television is a USB record facility. This function is available in Digital/Freeview mode when used in conjunction with a compatible USB memory stick or USB Hard drive. The benefits of this are as follows:

• Pause live TV and then playback, fast forward and rewind (up to live TV)
• One button record, if you decide you want to record the current programme
• Easy programmable recording from the 7 day TV Guide
• Record TV and watch/listen back on your computer/laptop

Due to the nature of the product, it is necessary to use a high speed USB memory stick (as the TV reads from and writes to the memory stick at the same time, some memory sticks may not be suitable)

You can purchase high speed memory sticks from some computer stores, alternatively, we have a selection of tested and compatible memory sticks available to purchase directly from the helpline/web site.

Minimum Specification - USB Memory Stick

Read Speed 20 MB/s (Mega Byte Per Second)

Write Speed 6 MB/s (Mega Byte Per Second)

If you wish to use a USB portable hard drive larger than 32GB, please refer to the FAQ section at the rear of this user guide.

Pause Live TV (Time Shift)

Pausing Live TV is very simple.

- Press the play/pause button and the television will pause and the live content will be recorded. To resume watching press play/pause again.

- Press fast forward to go forward in a recording (i.e. to skip adverts)

- Press fast rewind to go back in a recording (i.e. if you fast forwarded too far)

USING YOUR TV WITH A SKY DIGITAL SET TOP BOX

Option 1) Connecting your TV to your Sky box (when both the TV and Sky Box are located in the same room)

Depending on your Sky Box & TV model, connect either by SCART or HDMI cables (available separately)

If connecting by SCART, select the 'Input source' on the TV as SCART.

If connecting by HDMI, select the 'Input source' on the TV as HDMI (if the TV has more than 1 HDMI port, ensure you select the input source to match the HDMI numbered port on the rear of the TV)

If you wish to use your Sky remote to operate the TV's functions, you will need a Sky remote control (Revision 9 or later) and you will need to programme a 4 digit code into it. See bottom of this page.

(The red LED light on the TV link/magic eye will light up if the RF / RF2 output is correctly set up) If you do not have the instructions that came with the TV link/magic eye, instructions on how to do it can be found on our web site.

1) To tune the TV to the Sky box, on the 2nd TV, select the 'Analogue' input source.
2) Select the channel that you wish to store the Sky box/channel on. (If you do not use channels 1-5 because you no longer have analogue terrestrial channels after digital switchover, you may choose to select channel 1 to store the Sky box/channel, if you still have and use analogue channels 1-5, you may for example decide that channel 6 is the best option for you)
3) Press the corresponding number on the remote control to select the desired analogue channel chosen as per point 2 above.
4) On the TV remote control, press Menu. Now navigate through the menus to select Manual Tuning or Analogue Manual tuning (refer to the Tuning/Channel menu section of this user guide if necessary)
5) Manually tune in the channel (usually, the Sky box is at a frequency between 800Mhz and 850Mhz) once the Sky box/channel is found, press 'OK' to store it.
