Follow the instructions on this page to switch on the TV set and the remote control.

1. Install two LR06 or AA 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.

-Do not expose batteries to excessive heat, throw them on the fire, recharge them or try to open them, as this could cause them to leak or explode.

-Remove the batteries from the remote control if you are not using it for a long period of time (several weeks).

2.Connect the TV set to a mains socket.

The 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 cord, do not, under any circumstances, connect it to a mains socket, as there is a risk of electric shock.

Equipment for the UK is supplied with a mains cable fitted with a moulded plug.This plug contains safety components and must not be replaced by one sold by general retailers. It is fitted with a fuse that protects your television. If your set has stopped working, the fuse may have blown. If it has, replace it with an identical ASTA or BSI certified (BS1362) 13-amp fuse.

3.Connect the outside aerial or cable network to the antenna connector (labelled ANT) on the rear panel of the TV set.

The aerial socket can be used for connecting an external aerial or other equipment fitted with a modulator (video recorder, satellite receiver, etc.). We recommend that you do not connect other equipment (video recorder, satellite receiver, etc.) to your TV set to begin with, so as not to complicate the set-up procedure with this additional equipment. Connect them when you have finished setting up the channels.

4.Switch the TV set on by putting the main power switch located at the back on the ON position, then pressing the power button on the front panel.

The first time you switch on the TV set, the language selection menu appears.

Please respect the environment and the relevant regulations. Before you dispose of batteries or accumulators, ask your dealer whether they require special recycling and if he is able to take them back.
