Caution

To prevent electric shock, do not use the polarised plug on the BeoVision 5 with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet, unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

Complete all the connections in your setup before connecting any appliance to the AC outlet. Note:

Your BeoVision 5 operates on a normal household current (120 volts, 60 Hz) and has a polarised plug. Because one blade of the plug is wider than the other, the plug fits in the wall outlet only one way. Do not defeat the safety feature of this plug.

If you need an extension, use a polarised cord.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back).

No User-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

Note to Cable-TV installer

This reminder is provided to call your attention to

Article 820-22 of the National Electrical Code

(Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

This symbol indicates that a dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is present within this unit.

This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying this unit.

Picture function, a small window is super-imposed on the screen. You can move this window around on the screen, from one corner to another, or swap the source in the small window with the source shown in full size.

When the Picture-in-Picture function is activated, the sound always follows the source shown in full size, but buttons pressed on your Beo4 remote control affect the picture in the small window.

Picture-in-Picture

When Picture-in-Picture is on and a TV or

Satellite source is shown in the small window on the screen, you can change channels for that source. If VCR is selected in the window, then you can play, cue or wind the cassette.

Set up BeoVision 5

We recommend that you follow the procedure described below when you set up your BeoVision 5:

– Unpack the BeoVision 5 and place it as described and illustrated to the right under Handling your

BeoVision 5;

– Consider the appropriate surroundings for your BeoVision 5.

Guidelines are included to the right;

– Connect the cables, additional equipment, and speakers as described on the following pages.

For an overview of the connection panels, refer to Connection panels on

BeoVision 5 on page 25.

Handle your BeoVision 5

Due to the weight of BeoVision 5, any moving/lifting should always be done by two persons. BeoVision 5 is equipped with a special handle for lifting it out of the packing.

After that the handle must be removed.

NOTE! BeoVision 5 is not designed to stand on its own, it must be supported until mounted on the chosen bracket or stand!

– Make sure that the BeoVision 5 is set up and connected in accordance with this Guide.

– The BeoVision 5 is developed for indoor use in dry, domestic environments only. Use

BeoVision 5 within a temperature range of

10–40ºC (50–105ºF), and at an altitude of no more than 1500 metres (5000 ft.).

– Avoid placing your BeoVision 5 in direct sunlight or direct artificial light (such as a spotlight), as this may reduce the sensitivity of the remote control receiver. Do not place any items on top of the BeoVision 5.

– Do not attempt to open the BeoVision 5. Leave such operations to qualified service personnel.

Before placing BeoVision 5 you must remove the handle.

Edit and fine-tune channels

When you have connected

BeoVision 5 to either a cable network or an antenna, and automatic tuning has been performed, all available channels are stored. However, it may be necessary to edit channels.

Channels that do not broadcast meaningful signals may still get stored during tuning, or channels may be excluded from tuning because they were either out of reach or the signal was too weak. In these cases, you can remove empty channel numbers or add those channels which were excluded during automatic tuning.

Editing or fine-tuning of a stored channel may also be required if, for example, the signal is weak, if you want to select mono or stereo sound, or if you want to add a Second Audio

Program, SAP, to a specific channel.

Maintenance

Normal maintenance, such as cleaning the BeoVision 5, is the responsibility of the user. To achieve the best result, follow the instructions to the right.

Any defective parts are covered by the guarantee during the warranty period. Please consult your Bang &

Olufsen retailer to determine recommendations for normal maintenance.

Cleaning cabinet surfaces…

Wipe dust off the surfaces using a dry, soft cloth. Remove grease stains or persistent dirt with a lint-free, firmly wrung cloth, dipped in a solution of water containing only a few drops of mild detergent, such as washing-up liquid.

About the plasma screen…

Clean only with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

Do not allow still pictures to be displayed on the screen for an extended period of time, as this can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen. Examples of still pictures are logos, video games, computer images and images displayed in 4:3 picture format.

Never use alcohol or other solvents to clean any part of BeoVision 5!

Cleaning the Beo4…

Wipe the Beo4 remote control with a soft, lint-free, wet cloth which is wrung firmly.

Changing the batteries

When BATTERY appears in the Beo4 display, it is time to change the batteries in the remote control.

The Beo4 requires three batteries. We recommend that you use 1.5 volt (size AAA)

Alkaline batteries only. Replace the batteries as shown on this page. We recommend that you keep a finger on top of the batteries until the lid is replaced.

When you have replaced the batteries, you must wait for about 10 seconds until the display reads TV. The Beo4 remote control is then ready to operate again.
