Connections
When you set the television up on its own,
simply connect the aerial and connect the
television to the mains.
However, if you are going to connect
speakers, an audio system or any other
equipment to the television, do not connect it
to the mains yet!
When connections are complete and the cords
have been secured as described on this page,
switch on the mains switch on the front of the
television. A tiny, red light appears below the
screen. The system is in standby mode and
ready to be used. If your television is set up
on its own, you can now tune in programs as
explained in the chapter ‘First-time setup of
your television’ on page 28.
Your television was designed to be left in
standby mode when not in use. Therefore, to
facilitate remote control operation, it is
essential that you leave the mains switch on
(indicated by the red standby light on the
front).

equipment, refer to the chapter ‘Socket panels’
on page 44.
If your television is equipped with the built-in
system modulator, you will notice that the TV
socket shown in the illustration is occupied, and
that there is a second, unoccupied TV socket
located just below a socket marked LINK. Connect
your external TV aerial to this TV socket instead.
IMPORTANT! You must fasten the mains cord to
the television using the cable brackets (A) and
cable band (B). If this is not done, the cord can be
tugged free of the socket.
The supplied mains cord and plug are specially
designed for the television, and should be
handled with care. Avoid bending, twisting or
subjecting the cords to pressure or impact. If you
change the plug or in any way damage the mains
cord, it will affect the TV picture adversely!
