receiving­digital­channels
7
You require a digital roof antenna or indoor
antenna (passive or active indoor antenna
with its own power supply) to receive digital
television channels (DVB-T).
7
If you wish to receive digital television chan-
nels via your cable system (DVB-C), the an-
tenna cable for your cable operator must be
connected to the television set.
7
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every
channel has its own transmission frequency.
Instead, several channels are grouped into
what are known as bouquets on a regional or
national level. You can find the current trans-
mission information on teletext from various
broadcasters, or by consulting a current TV
guide or the Internet.
7
Various digital television channels from private
broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-T and DVB-
C). Watching these channels and the record-
ing and playback functions are only possible
with the appropriate CI module and a Smart-
Card. Ask your specialist dealer.
The range of channels available from the pub-
lic broadcasting institutions (ARD with EinsEx-
tra, EinsFestival or ZDF with ZDF Info and all
third party broadcasters) are not encrypted
and can be received without a SmartCard.

The following information will help you to save
resources – and money as well.
7
If you are not using your television set for
several days, you should pull out the mains
plug for environmental and safety reasons.
This way the television does not consume any
electricity.
7
As switching off the television set does not
completely disconnect it from the mains, pull
out the plug to disconnect it from the mains
completely.
7
If the device is equipped with a power switch,
switching it off using this switch will be suffi-
cient. The energy consumed by the television
set is reduced to virtually 0 W.
7
In standby mode, the television set uses very
little energy. However, it may be necessary to
leave the television set in standby mode for cer-
tain functions (for example automatic switch-on
and switch-off and for timer functions).
7
The television set uses less energy when the
brightness is reduced.
