GENERAL INFORMATION

Receiving digital channels

You require a satellite antenna to receive
7
digital satellite channels (DVB-S).
Your TV supports SCR system (Satellite Chan-
nel Router). If your antenna installation is
equipped with an Single Cable Distribution
multiswitch, all television sets which are con-
nected on this antenna can receive the televi-
sion channels stand-alone.
You require a digital roof antenna or indoor
7
antenna (passive or active indoor antenna
with its own power supply) to receive digital
television channels (DVB-T).
If you wish to receive digital television chan-
7
nels via your cable system (DVB-C), the an-
tenna cable for your cable operator must be
connected to the television set.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every
7
channel has its own transmission frequency.
Instead, several channels are grouped into
what are known as bouquets on a regional or
national level. You can find the current trans-
mission information on teletext from various
broadcasters, or by consulting a current TV
guide or the Internet.
Various digital television channels from private
7
broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-S, DVB-T
and DVB-C). Watching these channels and
the recording and playback functions are only
possible with the appropriate CI module and
a SmartCard. Ask your specialist dealer.
The range of channels available from the pub-
lic broadcasting institutions (ARD with EinsEx-
tra, EinsFestival or ZDF with ZDF Info and all
third party broadcasters) are not encrypted
and can be received without a SmartCard.
Important notes on
environmental protection
The following information will help you to save
7
resources – and money as well.
If you are not using your television set for
7
several days, you should pull out the mains
plug for environmental and safety reasons.
This way the television does not consume any
electricity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As switching off the television set does not
7
completely disconnect it from the mains, pull
out the plug to disconnect it from the mains
completely.
If the device is equipped with a power switch,
7
switching it off using this switch will be suffi-
cient. The energy consumed by the television
set is reduced to virtually 0 W.
In standby mode, the television set uses very
7
little energy. However, it may be necessary
to leave the television set in standby mode
for certain functions (for example automatic
switch-on and switch-off and for timer func-
tions).
The television set uses less energy when the
7
brightness is reduced.

Notes on still images

Watching the same image for a long time on the
screen may cause a still image remains feebly on
the background. Feeble image(s) on the back-
ground is originated from LCD/LED technology
and does not require any action under guaran-
tee. To avoid such cases and/or minimize the
impact, you may observe the tips below.
Do not allow the same TV channel to stay on
7
the screen for a very long time. Channel logos
may cause this situation.
Do not allow the images, which are not full
7
screen, to constantly stay on the screen; if not
streamed in full screen format by the broad-
caster, you can convert the images to full
screen by changing picture formats.
Higher brightness and/or contrast values will
7
lead this impact to appear faster; therefore,
you are recommended to watch your TV in the
lowest brightness and contrast levels.
