receiving­digital­channels
You require a digital roof antenna or indoor
7
antenna (passive or active indoor antenna
with its own power supply) to receive digital
television channels (DVB-T).
If you wish to receive digital television chan-
7
nels via your cable system (DVB-C), the an-
tenna cable for your cable operator must be
connected to the television set.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every
7
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.
Various digital television channels from private
7
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.
T he 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.
Important­notes­on­
environmental­protection
The following information will help you to save
7
resources – and money as well.
If you are not using your television set for
7
s everal days, you should pull out the mains
plug for environmental and safety reasons.
This way the television does not consume any
electricity.
As switching off the television set does not
7
completely disconnect it from the mains, pull
out the plug to disconnect it from the mains
completely.
­ - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the device is equipped with a power switch,
7
switching it off using this switch will be suffi-
cient. The energy consumed by the television
set is reduced to virtually 0 W.
In standby mode, the television set uses very
7
little energy. However, it may be necessary
to leave the television set in standby mode
for certain functions (for example automatic
switch-on and switch-off and for timer func-
tions).
The television set uses less energy when the
7
brightness is reduced.
Notes­on­still­images
Watching the same image for a long time on the
screen may cause a still image remains feebly on
the background. Feeble image(s) on the back-
ground is originated from LCD/LED technology
and does not require any action under guaran-
tee. To avoid such cases and/or minimize the
impact, you may observe the tips below.
Do not allow the same TV channel to stay on
7
the screen for a very long time. Channel logos
may cause this situation.
Do not allow the images, which are not full
7
screen, to constantly stay on the screen; if not
streamed in full screen format by the broad-
caster, you can convert the images to full
screen by changing picture formats.
Higher brightness and/or contrast values will
7
lead this impact to appear faster; therefore,
you are recommended to watch your TV in the
lowest brightness and contrast levels.
