Switching On

Follow the instructions on this page on how to switch on your TV set
and the remote control before going on to following pages describing
how to use the channel set-up procedure.
1. Insert two AAA batteries in the remote control.
Precautions on using batteries:
- Only use the battery types specified.
- Make sure you use the correct polarity.
- Do not mix new and used batteries.
- Do not use rechargeable batteries.
- Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine,
fire or the like, throw them in a fire, recharge them or try to open
them, as this could cause them to leak or explode.
- Remove the batteries from the remote control if you are not using
it for a long period of time.
- Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery
disposal.
2. Connect the power cable FIRST to the television, THEN to a mains
socket. (Note: If the power cable is connected to the television,
please only connect the power cable to the mains socket.)
Your TV set should only be connected to an AC supply. It must not
be connected to a DC supply. If the plug is detached from the ca-
ble, do not, under any circumstances, connect it to a mains socket,
as there is a risk of electric shock.
Note: The figures are for representation only, the location of power
socket of the television may differ depending on the model.
3. Connect an outside aerial to the Antenna/Cable input socket at
the back of the TV set.
The aerial socket (75 OHM - VHF / UHF / cable) can be used for
connecting an external aerial or other equipment fitted.
Notes:
- If you want to receive the signal from your cable or cable box,
please connect a coaxial cable to the Antenna/Cable input socket
at the back of the TV set.
- If you want to receive the signal from your satellite receiver, please
connect a coaxial cable to the Satellite input socket at the back of
the TV set.
4. When powered on, the TV will be turned on directly or be in
standby mode.
If the power indicator lights up, the TV set is in standby mode.
Press the button on the remote control or on the TV set to turn
on the TV.
