Before you start operating BeoVision
Avant, it may be a good idea to famil-
iarise yourself with the Beo4 principles
of operation.

Your BeoVision Avant video system is
designed for remote operation using
the Beo4 remote control.

Beo4 integrates remote operation of
your BeoVision Avant and of the basic,
daily functions in recent Bang &
Olufsen audio systems.

• Daily operations are carried out via

the Beo4 remote control. The Beo4
display reads the name of the source
you are watching and/or listening to.

• Additional functions can be obtained

via the Beo4 display, see the
following page.

• The somewhat more advanced

functions in the BeoVision Avant are
guided by menus which you can call
up on the screen (see pages 6-7).

Note: A few basic functions can be operated
directly on the small operation panel on the back
of the BeoVision Avant display bar. Please refer to
BeoVision Avant close-up pages 68-69 for further
information.

Nice to know about Beo4 buttons...
