  • Insert the batteries supplied into the remote control and press the standby button to power on the TV.

First time installation
Basic installationsteps are shown below. These may vary slightly depending on model.

  • When the set fi rst turns on, it enters the First Time Installation mode. This can be restarted by restoring the set to default settings in the ‘About TV’ Menu.

  • Select your preferred on-screen display language. This will change the language in which the menus and associated information is displayed in. When set up has been completed, to change this press the [MENU] button and then select Settings > System Menu > Language

  • Select the correct fl ag for the country in which the set will be used in. This will enable the set to correctly install the functions applicable in the country of use.

  • Home Mode: For normal use, by default it is set to a power saving mode which reduces the energy used by up to 25% (by reducing the power to the LED/LCD panel). This can be changed in the picture mode settings.
    Note : In home mode, the TV will switch off automatically after 4 hours in the event that no buttons are pressed on the TV or remote control. (You can change this by pressing the [MENU] button and then selecting Settings>Time>Auto Standby)

  • You can connect the TV to your broadband router or wireless network in order to take advantage of the Smart functions. If you connect the TV to your router using an Ethernet cable (recommended) this step will be skipped.

  • If you have a Netfl ix account, it can be set up on the television here. Once set up and validated, the First Time Installation returns to the next step.

  • Select the source which you use the most. If Digital TV (Freeview) is chosen, then at the next step, the set will tune in and default to Digital TV (Freeview). If one of the other sources is selected, then the set will not tune in at this stage and default to that input. If it is required to tune the set in later, press the [MENU] button and then select Settings>Channels

  • Choose to install terrestrial channels now or later.

  • Information regarding support is displayed for a little while. Tuning continues and a progress bar is shown with the number of channels found indicated below.
