The

IEW
offers 4 modes to sort and represent information
Day
The day guide provides an overview of all programme titles active in the selected time block. Time blocks are 15 minute intervals starting from the current time of the current day until 03.00 hours of tomorrow.
The default order is based on the programme list of the favourite TV channels as stored in the installation of the TV. TV channels not marked as favourite TV channels will not appear. The currently watched programme is selected and displayed at the top of the list.
Default NEX TV IEW opens with the DAY screen.
If None has been selected as
NEX
TV
IEW provider in the Setup menu, the day screen will be absent.
Channel
The channel guide provides an overview of all programmes per selected TV channel on the selected date.
The list will start with the earliest broadcasted programme.
Theme
The theme guide displays a list of all programmes at the selected date, that matches with the selected category (news, sport, culture, movies...).
The default starting item will be the current or next programme on the current
TV channel.
When more than one programme starts at the same time, they are displayed according to the programme number.
When another date is selected the list of programmes displayed will start with the earliest programme.
The THEME selection possibility is only present if programmes in the TV guide, have defined themes.
Overview
The Overview list provides a list of all reminders and recordings per day. The first item displayed will be the one closest in time.
When more than one of the same items start at the same time or have an overlap in time these will be marked by a flashing highlight and a message.
After the programme has been broadcast, all items set for once will be deleted from the list.

Basic functions
The function Watch is only available if a currently broadcasted programme is selected. Otherwise the function is not available.
The selection causes the TV to tune to the selected channel and
NEX
TV
IEW is switched off.
When Info is activated, information relating to the selected programme or advertisements are displayed.
When Record R or Remind ! are activated the screen turns to Record or
Remind mode. This is indicated by a tag-box appearing after the selected programme. The default interval is set to Once. The colour of the tag refers to the interval.
After setting the interval the message Storing appears to indicate the tuner of the video recorder is programmed.
When watching a certain programme, a message will appear on the screen the moment the tagged programme with ! starts.
When the TV is in standby, the TV switches on the moment the tagged programme with ! starts.
In case where a series tag is broadcast the options daily and weekly can be replaced by the option series. In this case the system identifies when the next episode of the series will be broadcast.
Acquisition and updating of
NEX
TV
IEW
information
Full acquisition and updating of
NEX
TV
IEW information for the selected provider, if any, is done when the TV is switched to standby after watching the
TV. (Possibly, limited acquisition might happen during watching. Follow the messages on screen.)
The TV enters a semi standby mode, the indicator remains green and switches to full standby automatically after all needed acquisition or updating is complete. The indicator then turns red. As long as the TV remains in standby, acquisition will again happen during the night.
Full acquisition is however only done if the start of the previous period of semi standby is 12 or more hours in the past. So, the information acquisition for the selected provider is done as a maximum twice a day.
Acquisition for non selected providers (selection None in the Setup menu) is only done while watching the TV channel.
Note: it may be necessary to put the TV into standby mode when all NEX TV IEW information is outdated, e.g. returning from holiday.

IEW
The Record item and the automatic recording will only be present and possible if your video recorder is equipped with NEX TV IEW Link.
The daily, weekly or series options, the number of recordings set and the way overlapping recordings are managed, depend on the type of video recorder type you have. The moment all video recorder timers are used, the item

Upload video recorder overview.
When the TV is switched on, the programmed record blocks are uploaded to the TV to check whether any manual addition or deletions have been done.
This is shown in the overview.
The video recorder manages and removes timer recordings when performed.
Some
NEX

IEW
Link video recorders do not allow a daily programming of recording to start on a Saturday or Sunday. In this case the item daily will be removed from the menu on those days.

Teletext
Most TV channels broadcast information via teletext. Each channel which broadcasts teletext transmits a page with information on how to use its teletext system. Look for the teletext page with the main index (usually p. 100).
Depending on the TV channel, teletext is transmitted in different systems.
The colours used in the options line correspond with the colour keys of your remote control.
About the Easy Text system
The Easy Text system considerably reduces the waiting time (on condition the teletext broadcast of the particular TV channel is switched on for at least half a minute) by :
• a direct selection of previous and following pages which are in transmission and of the pages referred to in the options line
• a habit watcher list: frequently used pages are put in a list of preferred pages, so that they are immediately available afterwards
• the precapturing of the page numbers referred to in the displayed page
• the precapturing of all the subpages.
Switch Teletext on and off
• Press b to switch on or off the teletext.
The main index page appears on the screen together with two information lines at the top and one option line at the bottom of the screen.
Select a Teletext page
With the digit keys
•
Enter the desired page number with the digit keys.
The page counter seeks the page or the page appears immediately when the page number has been stored in the memory.
A message appears when you have entered a non existent or an incorrect page number. Page numbers beginning with 0 or 9 do not exist. Choose another number.
With the option line
• Select with the colour keys, corresponding to the coloured options at the bottom of the screen, the desired subject.
Quickly run through the teletext pages
•
Press cursor up/down or the + P - key to run through the previous or the following pages.

Tips
Care of the screen
Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvent as it can damage the TV screen.
Poor Picture
Have you selected the correct TV system?
Is your TV or house aerial located too close to loudspeakers, non-earthed audio equipment or neon lights, etc. ?
Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures or ghost images.
Sometimes you can improve the picture quality by changing the direction of the outside aerial.
Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable?
Check if you have entered the correct frequency. See Installation, p. 5.
Are brightness and contrast out of adjustment ? Select Recall Pers. Pref. in the
Features menu.
Sometimes poor picture quality is possible when having activated a S-VHS camera or camcorder connected to the right side of your TV and another peripheral is connected to EXT1 or EXT2 at the same time. In this case switch off one of the other peripherals.
No picture
Is the aerial connected properly ? Are the plugs tightly connected in the aerial socket?
Is the aerial cable in good condition and does it have suitable plugs ? Are the connection facilities to a possible second
TV in good condition ? If in doubt, consult your dealer.
No solution
Switch your TV off and then on again.
Never attempt to repair a defective
TV yourself.
Check with your dealer or call a TV technician.
Remote control
If your TV no longer responds to the remote control, the batteries may be dead.
You can still use the Menu key and the
-/+ keys on top of your TV.
End of life directives
Your new TV contains materials which can be recycled and reused.
At the end of life specialised companies can dismantle the discarded TV to concentrate the reusable materials and to minimise the amount of materials to be disposed of.
Please ensure you dispose of your old TV according to local regulations.

Lexicon
100 Hz
100 Hertz provides a superior solution to the problem of picture flicker which is particularly noticeable with larger screen sizes. In a conventional TV, the picture area is scanned 50 times a second (50
Hertz) – a frequency which is still detectable by the human eye in the form of a flickering picture. In 100 Hertz sets, the picture area is scanned at a rate of 100 times per second (100 Hertz). At this frequency, the eye cannot detect flicker, resulting in a clearer picture which is more relaxing to the eye.
Easy Link
Digital ‘intelligent’ ESI bus-system between audio components in HiFi systems and between TV and VCR. (Scart connection required). Turns source selection and control into a one-button operation.
Easy Text
Teletext memory that automatically memorises Teletext pages and gives you instant access to them.
Automatic Channel Installation (ACI)
Automatically installs all TV channels in the same order as offered by your cable company, provided of course that the data is transmitted. It also automatically includes programme number and programme name.
With ACI, channel installation is fully automatic, simple and fast.
Incredible Surround
Feature to enrich the sound performance of your TV set or audio equipment. It enhances the stereo effect by giving the impression that the speakers are positioned much wider apart than they actually are.
Child Lock

Euroconnector
A 21-pins connector system enabling you to simply connect various types of audio/video and computer equipment.
Menu
On-screen display of functions and facilities in a well-organised survey, which you can select using your remote control.
Digital Scan
If you look at a television screen you will see small imperfections in the picture caused by line vibration. Digital Scan (an internal process) removes interline flicker.
When combined with 100 Hz, you will see a totally stable image.
DNR
Digital Noise Reduction.
By encoding signals digitally in 100 Hz sets with Digital Scan it is possible to clean up picture noise. This is especially beneficial in poor signal areas and when viewing poor quality video tapes.
NEX TV IEW
NEX
