Special features of your ­television set

7You can receive and watch digital TV channels using your television set (via DVB-T and DVB-C)

– including High Definition programmes (HD). However, the reception of digital TV channels in HD is currently limited to a few countries in Europe.

7Although this television set complies with the current DVB-T and DVB-C standards (status:

August 2010), the compatibility with future­ ter- restrial DVB-T and DVB-C cable programmes cannot be guaranteed.

7Your television set can receive and process all analogue and non-encrypted digital TV channels. The television set is also equipped with digital and analogue receivers.

7The electronic TV guide (for digital channels only) informs you about any schedule changes at short notice, and provides an overview of all the broadcasters' schedules for the next few days. Detailed information on the individual television programmes are – when provided by the broadcasting station – are also avail- able in the electronic TV guide.

7You can connect various data media, such as 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 of your choice (for example, MP4, MP3 or JPEG data).

Receiving digital channels

7You require a digital roof antenna or indoor antenna (passive or active indoor antenna with its own power supply) to receive digital television channels (DVB-T).

7If you wish to receive digital television chan- nels via your cable system (DVB-C), the an- tenna cable for your cable operator must be connected to the television set.

7Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every 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.

7Various digital television channels from private broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-T and DVB- C). Watching these channels and the record- ing and playback functions are only possible with the appropriate CI module and a Smart- Card. 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.
