Hints for use of the Operating Instructions Do not be put off by the size of the Operating Instructions. Initially, it is sufficient to read the instructions in Sections 1.1, 2 and 4. In order to familiarise yourself with the TV set and its many functions, we recommend that you read the Operating Instructions step by step, carrying out the described actions on your TV set as you do so. This method, often called "learning by doing", is the easiest way of learning how to execute the various functions.
Remote control handset RB 11 The remote control sends commands to the TV set with the aid of infrared light. For this reason, you should always point the remote control at the TV set for reliable operation. Use of the remote control may interfere with the operation of other devices or systems controlled which use infrared light (such as infrared headphones).
1. Setting up and connecting Setting up When selecting a suitable place for the TV, be sure that no bright light or sunlight falls on the screen. Light may cause reflections and impair the brilliance of the image.

You now wish to record a film running on the Pay TV channel.
9. Connecting headphones Headphones can be connected to the TV by way of the connecting socket underneath the fascia cover at the front. The socket will only accept headphones with a 3,5 mm jack plug. We recommend the use of headphones with an impedance of at least 32 Ohms. Headphones of a lower impedance (down to approx. 8 Ohms) will impair the sound quality. The headphones volume can be stored as a standard value. The headphones and the TV speakers can be used together.
