NOTE! For information about first-time installation of the motorised stand, refer to the chapter ‘Firsttime setup of your television’ on page 28.

Set the time and date

If your television is equipped with the optional Master Link module, you can enter settings for the built-in clock.

When you preset your television to switch itself on or off at a particular time, or when you preset a timed recording of a programme on a connected BeoCord V 8000 video tape recorder, the clock ensures that these features are switched on and off at the right times.

The simplest way to set the clock is to synchronise it with a tuned TV program’s teletext service via the

CLOCK menu. If you choose to synchronise the clock, this is done with the teletext service offered by the TV program you are currently watching. If a teletext service is not available, you can set the clock manually.

If your television is not equipped with the optional Master Link module, you can still call up the clock on the screen, provided that you are watching a program that includes a teletext service.

Before synchronising the clock with a tuned program, make sure that the program you are watching offers a teletext service.

To bring up the clock on the screen, press LIST repeatedly to display CLOCK* on Beo4, then press GO. To remove the clock again, repeat the procedure.

Set up your television

For information about how to fasten and run the cables on the rear of the television, refer to the opposite page.

For further information about the socket panels, refer to pages 45–46.

Handling your television

The television is not designed to stand on its own, it must be supported until mounted on the chosen stand.

– Avoid placing you television in direct sunlight or direct artificial light, such as a spotlight, as this may reduce the sensitivity of the remote control receiver. Also if the screen is overheated, black spots may appear in the picture. These spots disappear again, once the television cools down to normal temperature.

– Make sure that the television is set up, placed and connected in accordance with this Guide.

– The television is developed for indoor use in dry, domestic environments only. Use within a temperature range of 10–40°C (50–105°F).

– Do not place any items on top of the television.

– Always place your television on a firm and stable surface.

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

If you have a motorised stand, leave enough space around the television to allow it to turn freely. The television can also be turned by hand.

Aerial and mains 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!

The supplied mains cord and plug are specially designed for the television. If you change the plug or in any way damage the mains cord, it will affect the TV picture adversely!

When connections are complete and the cables have been secured as described on this page, switch on the mains. 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 do not disconnect it from the mains.

A B C

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! All the cables must be fastened to the cable clamp using a cable tier. The cable clamp accommodates few or many cables as illustrated

(A, B or C).

Avoid bending, twisting or subjecting the aerial cable to pressure or impact. We recommend that you connect the aerial cable using an angled plug.

When you have made all the connections and fastened the cables, you must mount the cable cover again.

Socket panels

The socket panel on your television allows you to connect signal input cables as well as a variety of extra equipment, such as a video tape recorder or a linked Bang & Olufsen music system.

Maintenance of your television

Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the television, is the responsibility of the user. To achieve the best result, follow the instructions to the right. Contact your Bang &

Olufsen retailer to determine recommendations for regular maintenance.

Any defective parts are covered by the guarantee during the warranty period.

Cleaning

Cabinet surfaces

Wipe dust off the surfaces using a dry, soft cloth.

Remove grease stains or persistent dirt with a soft, lint-free, firmly wrung cloth, dipped in a solution of water containing only a few drops of mild detergent, such as washing-up liquid. Never use alcohol or other solvents to clean any part of the television!

The speaker cover may be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, set to the lowest level.

Contrast screen…

To clean the picture screen, use a mild window cleaning fluid. To retain the optimum performance of the screen, make sure that no streaks or traces of the cleaning fluid are left on the screen. To avoid soiling the speaker cover when you clean the screen, you can remove the speaker cover beforehand.

To remove the speaker cover: Gripping the top corners of the cover with your fingers, push inward on the screen with your thumbs until the speaker cover clicks free of the screen. Repeat the procedure with the lower corners of the cover, if necessary.

Beo4

Wipe the Beo4 remote control with a soft, lintfree, firmly wrung cloth.

Changing the Beo4 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 Alkaline batteries only (1.5 V – size

AAA). Replace the batteries as shown on this page. Keep a finger on top of the batteries until the lid is replaced.

When you have replaced the batteries, you must wait about 10 seconds until TV appears in the display. The Beo4 remote control is then ready for use.

NOTE! If the front screen glass should crack or chip, or if it should be damaged in any way, it must be replaced immediately, as it could otherwise cause injury. You can order replacement front screen glass from your Bang & Olufsen retailer.

Distribute sound and picture with BeoLink

The BeoLink system makes it possible to distribute picture and/or sound to other rooms throughout the house.

You can connect your television in, for example, the living room to another video system or set of speakers in another room, thereby making it possible to ‘move’ the picture or sound to other rooms.

If you have a BeoLink distribution system installed, you can either use your television in the main room, such as a living room, or in a link room, such as a study or bedroom.

Distribution of video signals to a linked television is only possible if your television is equipped with the optional system modulator. Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to enter modulator settings.

BeoVision 6

To the MASTER LINK socket on the link room system

To a link room television

Link connections

The main room system must be connected to the link room system with a Master Link cable:

> Connect the Master Link cable to the socket marked MASTER LINK on the television.

> If you want to distribute video signals as well, connect an ordinary aerial cable to the socket marked LINK on the television. Then run both cables to the link room and follow the instructions enclosed with the link room equipment.

NOTE! Groups made on a television in a main room cannot be accessed from a link room television.

If an audio system is already connected to the

Master Link socket and you wish to connect more equipment, the Master Link cable must be split in two and joined with the cable from the link room using a special junction box. Contact your Bang &

Olufsen retailer for assistance.

>> Distribute sound and picture with BeoLink

System modulator Link frequency

If your link room is an audio setup, such as a

BeoLink Active/Passive, and you choose to set up a non-linkable television in the same room, you must set the system modulator to ON (the factory setting is OFF, which must be used if you are using a linkable Bang & Olufsen television).

If, for example, a TV program in your area is broadcasted on the same frequency as the

BeoLink system uses, 599 MHz, you must tune the system modulator to an unoccupied frequency. When you change the link frequency in the main room system, make sure that the link frequency in the link room system corresponds.

Whenever a source is displayed on

Beo4 (such as TV or RADIO), you can press the LIST button and bring up extra functions in the display to help you operate that source, just as if you were calling up extra buttons.

You can also switch on extra equipment connected to your television.

Beo4 display.

You can customise your Beo4 list of functions to suit your needs, and change the order in which these extra functions appear when you call them up.
