T
he aerial
Connect the aerial lead to the ANT

the television. You will need a good-quality aerial to receive
teletext and nicam sound.
Other equipment
If you have a video recorder you will need to connect the aerial lead
to the video recorder and connect the aerial output lead from the video recorder to the television aerial socket.
Information about connecting aerials and other equipment is given in 'Connecting other equipment' on page 21.
The scart AV sockets
This television has two special interconnecting sockets called 'scart' (AV). You don't have to use these straight
away, but using scart cables gives you the best picture and sound quality and can cure some picture interference
problems. And you will only get stereo sound from other equipment if it is connected with a stereo scart cable. If
you have other equipment with scart sockets please read 'Connecting other equipment' on page 21.

Press the edge of the catch at the top of the battery cover towards the cover
and lift off the cover.
Put in the two batteries that came with your television (size AAA or LR3).
Make sure that the (+) and (-) marks on the batteries agree with the (+) and (-)
marks inside the battery compartment.
Replace the cover by engaging the two tabs at the bottom and pressing down
the end with the catch until it clicks into place.
