GENERAL INFORMATION

Special features of your television set

Your television set enables you to receive and watch digital stations (via DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C), including the High Definition (HD) ones. At present, reception for these digital television stations in High Definition is only possible in some countries in Europe.
Although this television meets the current DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C standards as of August 2012, its compatibility with future DVB-S digital satellite broadcasts, DVB-T digital terrestrial broadcasts and DVB-C digital cable broadcasts is not guaranteed.
This television can receive and process all analogue and all unencrypted digital stations. This television set has an integrated digital and analogue receiver. The digital receiver unit converts the signals from digital stations to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
The TV guide (only for digital stations, if pro-vided by the broadcaster) tells you of any schedule changes at short notice, and pro-vides an overview of all the stations’ schedules for the next few days.
You can connect various data media, for example, an external hard drive, a USB memory stick or a digital camera to the USB socket. Using the file browser, you can then select and play the file formats you want (for example, MP4, MP3 or JPEG data).
With the Time Shift function, you can easily stop and resume a programme with the remote control in a fast and simple way. Programme is recorded to the external data medium.
You can save any digital TV channel you have chosen, if no limitation has been imposed by the broadcaster.
TV channel is transformed by the TV and saved to a USB external data medium. You can recall and play saved programmes from the archive. For saving and playing TV programs, please see page 35.
Interactive applications allow you to use various Internet services easily.

Receiving digital stations

To receive digital satellite stations (DVB-S) you need a satellite antenna.
To receive digital stations (DVB-T) you need a digital rooftop or indoor antenna (passive or active indoor antenna with its own power supply).
The antenna cable of the cable TV network that broadcast in DVB-C must be plugged into TV in order to receive the DVB-C broadcasts.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every station has its own transmission frequency. Instead, several stations are grouped into what are known as bouquets on a regional or national level.
You can find the current transmission information on teletext from various broadcasters, or look in a TV guide or on the Internet.
Various digital television stations from private broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C). Watching these stations and the recording and playback functions are only possible with the appropriate CI module and a SmartCard. Ask your specialist dealer.

Things to do for energy saving
Those items mentioned below will help you reduce the consumption of natural resources as well as save your money by reducing electricity bills.

If you will not be using the TV set for several days, the TV set should be disconnected from the mains for environmental and safety reasons. TV will not consume energy in this condition.
If the TV set has main switch, it will be enough to turn the TV off via main switch. TV will reduce energy consumption almost to Zero Watt.
TV consumes less energy on stand-by mode. However, some TV sets may have features such as on timer, that require the TV set to be left in standby to work correctly.
TV consumes less energy when 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 background is originated from LCD/LED technology and does not require any action under guarantee. 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 the screen for a very long time. Channel logos may cause this situation.
Do not allow the images, which are not full 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 lead this impact to appear faster; therefore, you are recommended to watch your TV in the lowest brightness and contrast levels.
