Tuning the TV to your region

If you purchased this TV for use in Australia, it is ready to operate out of the box. However, if you purchased this TV for use in a country other than Australia, you will need to perform the 'Auto-Installation' setup so that the TV can tune to the local available TV stations.

Both the 'Auto Installation' and 'Manual Installation' menus contain sub-menus which allow you to select the country and PAL TV standard which the TV will use for channel selection. See "Performing Auto installation" and "Performing Manual installation" on page 27.
