Basic connections

The mains plug (1) supplies power to the television. The television must only be plugged in to a 220-240 V - 50 Hz power supply. It must never be plugged in to a DC source. Should the plug become separated from the lead, never attempt to plug it in to a mains socket. This could cause electrocution.

The aerial socket (2), located on the rear of the television, can be used to connect an external aerial or other appliance equipped with a modulator such as a VCR, satellite receiver, etc.

If you connect an appliance to the aerial jack, you must give it a channel number. To do this, switch on the appliance, then use the television to find the modulator channel (see the appliance manual). Now give it a programme number and memorise it (see Manual Programming of channels). Then, when you wish to use the appliance, simply select its programme number on the television. This procedure is not required for VCR’s not equipped with a modulator.

The SCART socket AV1 (2), located on the rear of the televi- sion, is intended to connect a VCR or a camcorder (VHS, 8 mm), a Canal+ decoder, a video games console or RGB-signal emitting appliances.

We strongly recommend the use of this type of connection, which gives a better picture quality. To use the peripheral appliance that you have connected, press the AV key on your remote control to select AV1. This selection is automatic for some appliances. Pressing “”play” on a VCR, or switching on a satellite receiver connected to AV1 will automatically switch on your television.

When you stop the VCR, if you have not changed channels while watching the VCR, the television automatically switches back to the channel you were watching beforehand. If the television has been switched on from the VCR, it switches to standby when the VCR is switched off. The television automatically switches to 16/9 format if the connected appliance delivers the corresponding signal.

The headphone socket (3)* is provided to connect a headphone or earphones.

Connecting headphones mute the sound from the television loudspeakers.

Your TV is provided with a headphone socket for stereo headphones, do not use a mono headphone or plug.
