If you require any technical guidance or find that your TV is not operating as intended, a simple solution can often be found in the 

Troubleshooting

 section of these instructions, 

General

I would like to have 
louder sound by 
connecting additional 
speakers.

1) Use the 3.5mm headphone output and a 3.5mm to phono cable (available 
separately) to connect to an amplifi er/surround sound system. Please note 
this will deactivate the TV’s built in speakers.
2) Connect a COAX cable from the TV’s COAX output to your amplifi er/
surround systems COAX input.

General

Why are some 
options in the menu 
unavailable and greyed 
out.

Some options are only available in certain sources, i.e. HDMI. They are
unavailable in the other sources where they have no aff ect.

General

Can I stop my TV 
automatically turning 
off  after 4hrs? 

Yes, in the ‘Time’ menu settings, scroll down to Auto standby and select OFF.

TV

I have tuned in Digital 
TV but I am not 
receiving any or all of 
the channels and/or 
the channels I receive 
are breaking up.

1) Check you are in an area that can receive Freeview/Saorview, visit www.
freeview.co.uk or www.saorview.ie
2) Check you are using an aerial that is able to receive a good digital signal. 
In most cases, you will need an outdoor digital hi-gain/wideband aerial. 
In areas that have excellent digital coverage, you may be able to use a loft 
type aerial but it is highly likely that you will also need to connect a booster 
between the back of the TV and the TV aerial wall socket. Unfortunately, 
to receive a good enough digital signal, it is not possible to use a portable/
indoor type aerial.

TV

I have re-tuned my 
television but when 
I switch it off  it is not 
storing the channels.

If the TV does not save the channels when you power it off , it’s likely the 
channel database has become corrupt. 
1) Turn off  the TV.
2) Remove the RF/Aerial cable from the rear of the TV and then turn the TV 
back on again. 
3) Using the remote control, press Menu followed by 8-8-8-8 to enter the 
initial setup/fi rst time installation menu. 
4) Press OK (let the TV run the full tuning process).
5) Once completed, turn off  the TV, reconnect the RF/Aerial cable then turn 
the TV back on again. 
6) Repeat steps 3 & 4.

VCR/DVD
Recorder

I have connected the 
TV to my VCR or DVD 
Recorder via SCART but 
it is not recording.

In addition to connecting via SCART, you should connect the aerial cable 
from the wall socket to your VCR/DVD Recorder and another aerial cable 
from the VCR/DVD Recorder to the TV.

Game 
Consoles

I have connected my 
Playstation/Xbox to 
the TV via HDMI, but I 
am not receiving any 
pictures or sound on 
my Television.

1) Ensure the TVs’ source is set to HDMI.
2) Check your settings on your Playstation/Xbox are as per the Playstation/
Xbox instruction manual.
