Watching TV

Important

Before watching broadcast channels, the built-in TV tuner must be set up. See Setting up TV channels on page 25 for how to do this.

Turning the power on

To turn on the system, press POWER on the bottom-left of the front of the plasma television.

The POWER ON indicator lights blue.

To switch the system back into standby, press on the remote control unit or STANDBY/ON on the plasma television’s control panel on the right-hand side.

The STANDBY indicator lights red.

You can then turn on the system again by pressing  or 0 to 9 on the remote control or STANDBY/ON on the plasma television. If you press 0 on the remote control unit, images come from the INPUT 1 source. If you press 1 to 9, TV images display.

You can also press POWER on the plasma television to turn off the

system. However, you cannot then turn on the system again by pressing the buttons on the remote control unit or STANDBY/ON on the plasma television.

Note

When the system is placed into standby mode, the main power flow is cut and the system is no longer fully operational. A minute flow of power feeds the system to maintain operational readiness.

If you are not going to use the plasma television for a long period of time, be sure to remove the power cord from the power outlet.
