This TV set can manage up to 225 TV programme positions. If you are connected to a cable network or use a terrestrial aerial, you will not need all
of these positions at the moment. If, however, you have a SAT upgrade kit installed, the number of programmes can increase drastically. We do not
know how many programmes will be available in the future. For this reason, we have provided plenty of programme positions in reserve. For
selection of the desired programme position, we have invented a simple input method which saves you having to enter three digits for each position.
The first digit you enter is normally the hundreds digit. If, however, you have less than 100 programmes stored, this digit auto-
matically moves to the tens position. If you have less than ten programmes stored, it moves to the units position.
Example: you have stored programmes in positions 1 to 35 and you want to select position 3. Press the keys
ᕪ and ᕣ or simply ᕣ and
confirm with . Programme position 4 can be selected by simply entering
ᕤ, since there are no programme positions higher than 39.
Further examples are shown in the following text.
OK
2. Select programme position
25 (only the first 99 pro-
gramme positions in the
station table are occupied)
Only the programme positions 0-99 in the station table
may be occupied if a programme is to be selected by
pressing two numeric keys.
After a programme has been selected successfully, a box
containing the programme position number, the time and the
current sound mode (e.g. stereo) is displayed on the screen.
To select a programme position with only a single-digit
number, you must enter
ᕪ before the related digit,
e.g.
ᕪ and ᕢ; alternatively, you can press ᕢ and
then press . OK

Only the programme positions 0-9 in the station table
may be occupied if a programme is to be selected by
pressing one numeric key.
Pressing the numeric key opens a time-delay win-
dow* which waits for 3 seconds for the input of
further digits. If no further numeric key is pressed,
the TV set switches to the programme position
selected with the first digit.

be changed: see page 20, item 5, „PC time out“.
