  Connecting the TV Set
Connecting to the mains
Remove the cover for the connections.
Connect the TV set to a 220-240V mains socket:
First plug the small plug of the power cable into the mains connection 
on the back of the TV and then the large mains plug into a mains socket. 
 Connecting antennas
Cable (analogue) / DVB-C / DVB-T antenna:
Plug the antenna cable of antenna, cable system or room antenna into 
the ANT TV socket. 
If you want to use analogue cables / DVB-C connection and a DVB-T 
antenna together, use an external antenna switch (available from your 
dealer).
Satellite antenna DVB-S:
If the TV set is equipped with a Single or Twin satellite tuner (ex-factory or 
means of upgrade kit / conversion kit), the ANT-SAT and ANT-SAT2 sockets 
are available. 
Depending on the used satellite system, connect a connecting cable from 
the multi-switch or directly from the LNC to the ANT-SAT and ANT-SAT2 
sockets of the TV set respectively. 
When connecting the TV set to a single cable community antenna, con-
nect the ANT-SAT and ANT-SAT2 sockets directly to the appropriate SAT 
antenna socket. Ask your dealer if required.
  Installing the TV set
Installation options
Your TV set is delivered without installation options. This gives you the 
option of choosing the installation solution tailored to your requirements 
from your Loewe dealer. Only use Loewe installation solutions (e.g. wall 
mounts, floor stand) that are included in the Accessories – Setup pos-
sibilities chapter on page 143.
After selecting an installation option, read the appropriate assembly 
instructions.
Installation notes
Choose a place for installing your TV where no bright light or sunlight 
shines directly onto the screen. This could cause reflections which impair 
the picture.
3 times the screen diagonal can be taken as a guide value or the view-
ing distance (e.g. for 40-inch set approx. 3m for SD signal). The viewing 
distance can be reduced with an HD signal.
   
Set covers
Covers for rear and side connections  
To remove the rear cable cover, pull the two recessed handles at the 
bottom and drop down the cover.
To fit the cover, insert the lugs at the top edge of the cover into the corre-
sponding cut-outs in the rear panel and push up the cover until it snaps in.
The side cover of the TV set can also be completely removed. For this, 
open it as far as it will go and gently pull on the open cover.
The cover detaches from the holder and gives free access to the con-
nection area. To replace the cover, simply push it until it latches back 
into place.
