Question 

Answer 

C1 

Contrast 
glass 

Cleaning 

May I use alcohol or another strong acid to 
clean the screen?  What about the use of 
water?  

Contrast glass is real glass.  We recommend you clean your screen with 
screen cleaner and a soft tissue that does not make scratches (the micro 
fibre cloth is fine).  The use of water is no problem.  Avoid always water 
from entering in the cabinet. 

C2 

Contrast 
glass 

Functionality 

What is the function of the contrast glass? 

The contrast glass has three functions.  First, it increases the contrast with 
almost 50 %, which results in a better black.  Second, it decreases 
reflexion of light by 25 times. Third, it protects the LCD panel. 

C3 

Contrast 
glass 

LCD panel 
damage 

Can a child damage the LCD panel by hitting 
with a plastic object? 

Although one should be careful, especially with sharp objects, the contrast 
screen protects the LCD panel from being damaged. 

G1 

General 

Bathroom 

May I place the TV in my bathroom? 

No, this is not recommended 

G2 

General 

Burn-in 

I watch the same TV channel every day.  
Should I be afraid for burn-in of the channel’s 
logo? 

No, you shouldn’t.  LCD technology makes burn-in impossible. 

G3 

General 

Heat 

Is it save that the TV feels so warm when 
operating? 

The aluminium frame takes the heat away from the electronic parts.  This 
construction, together with the holes on the rear makes a fan superfluous. 
So it is natural that it feels warm. 

G4 

General 

Power 
consumption 

I have heard that flat screens use a lot of 
power.  Is this correct? 

LCD TVs do not use a lot of power.  Actual power consumption is less then 
an old fashioned TV and about half the consumption of a plasma TV. 

G5 

General 

Sunlight 

Can I place the back of the TV in direct 
sunlight? 

It is not recommended to place the back of the TV in the sunlight. The TV 
could overheat in strong sunlight. 

G6 
 

General 

Ticking 

When I start my LCD TV and it is silent, I can 
sometimes hear a soft ticking.  Is something 
broken? 

No, aluminium is metal and can expand a bit when it becomes warm.  The 
ticking should disappear after a short time. 

G7 

General 

VESA 
mounting 

Can I mount a VESA bracket on the back of 
the screen? 

Yes, but make sure to use only the small ( 5-6mm) screws that were 
delivered together with your NAD TV. 
Never use force to insert a screw in the back panel more then 3,5 mm. 

M1 

Mounting 

Table stand 

Is it possible to buy a table stand? 

Yes, a special designed table stand in aluminium with cable management 
is available. 

 

DV66TS for 23” and 26” 

 

DV81TS for 32” 

M2 

Mounting 

Wall 
mounting 

The TV is not hanging correctly on the wall.  
What can I do? 

Remember to place the 20 mm spacer between the TV and the wall as 
shown in you manual.  The spacer makes sure that the air can flow free 
behind the screen and that the TV hangs right.  

M3 

Mounting 

Wall 
mounting 

I would like to hang my screen on the wall.  Do 
you have an easy solution so it hangs stable 
and tight? 

Yes, we can supply our own wall bracket for the 26” and the 32”.  
Ordering number: DV81WB 

P1 

Picture 

720p / 1080i 

What HD TV signal gives the best picture on 
my NAD TV?  720p or 1080i? 

We recommend to use 720p progressive (1280x720 pixels full frames) 

P2 

Picture 

Best Picture 

How do I get the best picture on my LCD TV? 

The NAD LCD TV is a high quality product.  It is nevertheless only possible 
to show a very good picture when you have a good source and a good 
connection. 
The best sources are HD TV and DVD.  Both function best with digital 
connections (DVI, HDMI).  The VGA socket gives you a good picture as 
well (HD TV, computer).  DVD players give a good picture with component 
(especially with progressive scan).  We advise to use a good quality DVD 
player.  The bigger the screen you possess, the more important this is. 

P3 

Picture 

Bright 
setting 

Is there a fast way to give the TV more 
brightness in daylight conditions? 

Yes, there is. You can press the bright key on the remote control. 

P4 

Picture 

Component 

I connected a component cable.  Red is blue 
and blue is red on component signal.  Does 
my TV need service? 

No.  Check the connection.  Probably you switched the red and the blue 
connection. 

P5 

Picture 

Component 

No signal on component signal.  What should I 
do? 

Check the connection.  You have probably not connected the cables 
correctly or one of the cables is loose. 

P6 

Picture 

Component 
progressive 
scan 

I connected a component cable and there are 
2 diffuse pictures on component signal.  What 
is wrong? 

You are sending a progressive signal to the TV while your TV is set to 
component.  Select the right input from the source menu (component p-
scan). 

P7 

Picture 

Dark picture 

The picture is very dark when I turn on the TV.  
What is wrong? 

Your LCD TV has a backlight panel.  Only after 10-15 minutes this light 
reaches its full brightness. 

P8 

Picture 

DVI/HDCP 

I just bought a new DVD player that has a DVI 
socket.  I connected it to my TV, but the 
picture disappears all the time.  What is 
wrong? 

Most probably your TV has no HDCP (High bandwidth digital content 
protection).  This is in short a signal encryption to protect DVD films from 
being copied digitally.  From the second quarter of 2005 we included this in 
our production.  It is possible to have your TV upgraded.  Ask your dealer 
for a price. 

P9 

Picture 

Harmful to 
eyes 

Can a too bright picture be harmful for my 
eyes? 

An LCD panel has a very high brightness.  The contrast glass has however 
the ergonomic feature that it protects your eyes, just like expensive 
sunglasses do.  So, just enjoy your NAD TV. 

P10 

Picture 

No picture 
on DVI 

I connected my DVD player to the DVI socket, 
selected the right source/input, but I do not get 
any picture.  What should I do? 

Try to shut off the DVD player and the TV and start again.
