Tips

Positioning the television set

Place your TV on a solid, stable surface, leaving a space of at least 5 cm around the appliance.To avoid accidents, do not put anything on the set such as a cloth or cover, a container full of liquid (vase) or a heat source (lamp). The set must not be exposed to water.

Poor reception

The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, modify the orientation of the aerial.

No picture or no sound

Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? (p. 3).

Teletext

Are certain characters not displayed correctly ? Press and hold down the - and+ keys on the TV set for 5 seconds to display the Country menu.Then use the

Ȭkeys to select your country and validate with H.

Standby

If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode. To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power consumption when in standby mode (less than 3 W).

Still no results?

If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your dealer's after-sales service.
