General Operation

Switching on

Follow the instructions on this page on how to switch on your TV set and the remote

control before going on to following pages describing how to use the channel set-up

procedure.

1. Insert two AAA batteries in the remote control.

Precautions on using batteries:

- Only use the battery types specified.

- Make sure you use the correct polarity.

- Do not mix new and used batteries.

- Do not use rechargeable batteries.

- Remove the batteries from the remote control if you are not using it for a long

period of time.

Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like,

throw them in a fire, recharge them or try to open them, as this could cause

them to leak or explode.

3. Connect an outside aerial to the ANTENNA IN socket at the back of the TV set.

The aerial socket (75 OHM - VHF / UHF / cable) can be used for connecting

an external aerial or other equipment fitted.

4. When powered on, the TV will be turned on directly or be in standby.

If the power indicator lights up, the TV set is in standby mode. Press the

button on the remote control or on the TV set (if available) to turn on the TV.

2. Connect the power cable FIRST to the television, THEN to a mains socket.

(Note: If the power cable is connected to the television, please only connect the

power cable to the mains socket.)

Your TV set should only be connected to an AC supply. It must not be connected

to a DC supply. If the plug is detached from the cable, do not, under any

circumstances, connect it to a mains socket, as there is a risk of electric shock.

Note: The figures are for representation only. The location of the power socket at

the back of the television might differ depending on the model.

Switching off

To put the TV set into standby mode, press the button on the remote control

or on the TV (if available), the TV set remains powered up, but with low energy

consumption.

To switch off the TV set, unplug the mains socket from the mains outlet.
