Be sure to connect the equipment correctly, and make the necessary settings.

Control for HDMI

• Automatically turns the connected equipment off when you switch the TV to standby mode using the remote.

• Automatically turns the TV on and switches the input to the connected equipment when the equipment starts to play.

• If you turn on a connected audio system while the TV is on, the sound output switches from the TV speaker to the audio system.

• Adjusts the volume (

Keep this Instruction manual safe you’ll need it

Television in the UK is going digital, bringing us all more.

Please see overleaf to find out when your area switches to digital.

Digital UK is the independent, non-profit organisation leading the process of digital TV switchover in the UK. Digital UK provides impartial information on what people need to do to prepare for the move to digital, and when they need to do it.

How the switchover affects your TV equipment:

Your new TV has a digital tuner built in, which means it is ready to receive the Freeview signal by simply plugging it into your aerial socket (check if you can get digital TV through your aerial now, or whether you'll have to wait until switchover, at

www.digitaluk.co.uk

).

When the TV switchover happens in your area, there are at least two occasions when you will need to re-tune your TV in order to continue receiving your existing TV channels, and also to pick up new ones. Digital UK, the body leading the digital TV switchover, will advise you when you need to re-tune during the switchover.
