Setup AND SAFETY-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please note the following instructions when
setting up the television set:
This television is designed to receive and display video and audio signals.

All
other uses are expressly prohibited.

Make sure the power cord or the power supply unit (if provided) are not damaged.

Only operate the television with the power
supply/power cord provided.

Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical
devices. Even when the television is switched
off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to
the mains or the antenna. Always disconnect
the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.

The ideal viewing distance is five times the
diagonal screen size.

Light falling on the screen impairs picture
uality.
q

To ensure the device is always adequately
ventilated, make sure there is sufficient space
between the television set and nearby furniture.

The television is designed for use in dry rooms.
If you do use it outdoors, make sure it is protected from moisture such as rain or splashing
water.

Never expose the television set to moisture.

Use a damp, soft cloth to clean the screen.
Do not use water with soap or detergent.

Only clean the housing of your television set
with the cloth provided. Do not use water with
soap or detergent.

When deciding where to put the device, remember that furniture is often coated with
various types of varnish and plastic. Many of
these contain chemicals which can corrode
the feet of the device, leaving marks on the
surface of the furniture which can be difficult
or impossible to remove.

Do not place any vessels such as vases on the
television, as they may spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.

Place the television on a hard, level surface.

Do not place any objects such as newspapers
on the television or put cloth or similar items
under it.

Do not place the television close to heating
units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair
cooling.

Heat build-up can be dangerous and shortens
the service life of the television. For reasons of
safety, have a repairman remove any dirt in
the television from time to time.

Never open the television under any circumstances. Warranty claims are excluded for
damage resulting from improper handling.

ENGLISH

The screen of your LCD television meets
the highest quality standards and has been
checked for pixel faults.

Despite
the great care taken in manufacturing,
technological reasons make it impossible to
completely discount the possibility that some
pixels may be faulty.

Provided
they are within the thresholds specified by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind
cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by
the warranty.

To ensure fires do not occur,
always keep candles and other
open flames away from the device.

Setup AND SAFETY-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Do not connect any other equipment while the
device is switched on. Also switch off other
equipment before connecting it.

Do not plug in the power cord of the device
until you have connected the external equipment and the antenna.

Make sure the mains plug is freely accessible.

Caution:
If you plan on using a wall bracket for your
television, make sure you read the assembly
manual for the wall bracket or have a specialist assemble it.

When purchasing the wall bracket, make
sure that all the fastening points on the television are also on the wall bracket and that
they are all used when mounting it.

ENGLISH

General information--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Special features of your
television set
You can receive and watch digital TV channels
using your television set (via DVB-S, DVB-T and DVBC) – including High Definition programmes (HD).
However, the reception of digital TV channels in HD
is currently limited to a few countries in Europe.

Although this television set complies with the current
DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C standards (status: August
2010), the compatibility with future DVB-S satellite
transmissions as well as terrestrial DVB-T and DVB-C
cable programmes cannot be guaranteed.

Your television set can receive and process
all analogue and non-encrypted digital
TV channels. The television set is also equipped
with digital and analogue receivers.

The electronic TV guide (for digital channels
only) informs you about any schedule changes
at short notice, and provides an overview of
all the broadcasters' schedules for the next few
days. Detailed information on the individual
television programmes are – when provided
by the broadcasting station – are also available in the electronic TV guide.

You can connect various data media, such as
an external hard drive, a USB memory stick or
a digital camera, to the USB socket. Using the
file browser, you can then select and play the
file formats of your choice (for example, MP4,
MP3 or JPEG data).

Using the time shift function, you can quickly and
easily pause a programme using the remote
control and resume it at a later stage. The programme is recorded in an external data medium.

You can record any digital TV channels you
choose.
The TV channels are converted by the television and saved on an external data medium
which is connected to the USB socket.
The saved programmes can be called up and
played from the archive on the external data
medium at any time.
You can also play a programme from the
archive while recording another.
More information on recording and playing
TV programmes can be found on page 33.

ENGLISH

DLNA feature allows you to use a wired or
wireless (with WiFi USB dongle) local network
to access your content that were recorded
with DLNA compatible devices we use at our
daily lives such as a PC, mobile phone or NAS
(Network Attached Storage) which are operated as DMS (Digital Medial Server).

Devices that contain and serve video, music
or image files are called Server. This television
receives video, music and image files from the
server through home network, allowing you to
access and play such media even when your
television is located in a different room then
the server. A DLNA compatible device such as
a PC, mobile phone, NAS or a NAS-like (Network attached storage) device which operates
as a DMS (Digital Media Server) is required
in order to use home network.

You can also listen to the internet radios with
vTuner feature, provided that the local network
to which your television is connected can connect to internet.

General information--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Receiving digital channels
You require a satellite antenna to receive
digital satellite channels (DVB-S).

You require a digital roof antenna or indoor
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 channels via your cable system (DVB-C), the antenna cable for your cable operator must be
connected to the television set.

Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every
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 transmission information on teletext from various
broadcasters, or by consulting a current TV
guide or the Internet.

Various digital television channels from private
broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-S, DVB-T
and DVB-C). Watching these channels and
the recording and playback functions are only
possible with the appropriate CI module and
a SmartCard. Ask your specialist dealer.
The range of channels available from the public broadcasting institutions (ARD with EinsExtra, EinsFestival or ZDF with ZDF Info and all
third party broadcasters) are not encrypted
and can be received without a SmartCard.

Important notes on
environmental protection
The following information will help you to save
resources – and money as well.

If you are not using your television set for
several 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
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,
switching it off using this switch will be sufficient. The energy consumed by the television
set is reduced to virtually 0 W.

In standby mode, the television set uses very
low 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 functions).

The television set uses less energy when the
brightness is reduced.

ENGLISH

Connection and preparation----------------------------------------------Connecting the antenna and power cord

1 To receive digital satellite channels (DVB-S),
connect the satellite antenna cable to the
antenna socket »SATELLITE« on the television set.

Notes:

Wireless LAN adaptor supports IEEE
802.11B/G and N communication protocols.
We recommend you to use IEEE 802.11N
protocol to obtain the best performance in HD
video playback.
7

1 Connect Grundig WiFi USB dongle to the
»USB« or »USB HDD« socket of your
television in order to connect the television
to a wireless network.

28 ENGLISH

If you use a modem that supports IEEE
802.11B/G, video playback performance
may be poor when compared to a modem
that supports IEEE 802.11N since the data
transfer rate of IEEE 802.11B/G protocol is
lower.
WiFi USB dongle must directly be connected
to »USB« or »USB HDD« socket; USB Hub is
not supported.
Please note that video playback performance
in a DLNA application on a wireless local
network depends on the number of users on
the network as it is the case in every wireless
network.
It is recommended to switch off the equipment
that are not in use in home network in order
to avoid unnecessary network traffic.
Placing the modem or wireless network
sharer on an elevated location will increase
the wireless connection reception strength.
Wireless connection reception strength may
vary depending on the type of the modem
and the distance between the modem and
television.
Modem must be transmitting its SSID in order
to establish a wireless connection. Television
can not connect to a network without SSID.
When network connection is established
through a wireless USB network device,
wireless network connection may be
weak depending on the the strength of the
wireless network in the medium. Extending
the wireless USB network device close to the
television with a USB extension cable will
increase the wireless network performance.

■ Recording

Depending on the broadcaster, you may experience various restrictions on some of the functions
from some television channels.

and playback of television programmes is only possible with digital television
channels (DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C).

■ The

digital television channels (DVB-S, DVB-T
and DVB-C) you are able to record and playback also depends on the broadcaster.

■ Recording

and playback of programmes,
as well as the time shift function, can only be
carried out using an external data medium
(hard drive or USB stick). The data medium
should have a minimum storage capacity
of 2 GB.

■ Recordings

can be made with most data media
on the market. However, we cannot guarantee
operation for all data media.

■ If

a programme was recorded on an external
data medium, it can only be played back on
your television set. The playback of these programmes is not possible on other devices.

■ If

you send your television to be repaired and
hardware components need to be replaced,
you might not be able to play the recordings
again on the repaired television.

■ Reception

for SKY broadcasting service is currently only possible in Germany with a suitable
set-top box.

GRUNDIG has no influence on
these restrictions.
■ Recording

a programme on the external data
medium can be disabled by the broadcaster.
If the message »URI* protected! PVR function
is blocked« appears on the screen, then recording or timeshift is restricted (one recording
possible) or disabled (recording not possible)
by the broadcaster.
* URI = User right information (Copyright information).

■ If

you record and save a programme on the
archive of an external data medium, playback
can be restricted.
The broadcaster can allow you to view this
programme one or more times, but it may only
be available for a certain period of time.

■ Programmes

the input of a PIN number immediately before
recording starts. If this authorisation is not
given, the recording may not start.

AAC stands for Advanced Audio Coding and
was also developed by MPEG. AAC provides
better sound quality at an identical data rate.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a compression standard for audio data developed by
Microsoft.
These formats allow audio files to be recorded
and played which sound as good as a CD, while
taking up only a fraction of the memory space.
