1) Check you are in an area that can receive Freeview/Saorview, visit www.
freeview.co.uk or www.saorview.ie
2) Check you are using an aerial that is able to receive a good digital signal.
In most cases, you will need an outdoor digital hi-gain/wideband aerial.
In areas that have excellent digital coverage, you may be able to use a loft
type aerial but it is highly likely that you will also need to connect a booster
between the back of the TV and the TV aerial wall socket. Unfortunately, to
receive a good enough digital signal, it is not possible to use a portable/
indoor type aerial.
If the TV does not save the channels when you power it off , it's likely the
channel database has become corrupt.

2) Remove the RF/Aerial cable from the rear of the TV and then turn the TV
back on again.
3) Using the remote control, press Menu followed by 8-8-8-8 to enter the

5) Once completed, turn off the TV, reconnect the RF/Aerial cable then turn
the TV back on again.
6) Repeat steps 3 & 4.
In addition to connecting via SCART, you should connect the aerial cable
from the wall socket to your VCR/DVD Recorder and another aerial cable
from the VCR/DVD Recorder to the TV.
1) Ensure the TVs' source is set to HDMI.
2) Check your settings on your Playstation/Xbox are as per the Playstation/
Xbox instruction manual.
Component cables only provide HD pictures. For the sound you will need
to connect the red & white audio cables on the Playstation/Xbox to the red
& white phono inputs (or mini AV input where fi tted) on the rear of the TV.
