Digital Video Broadcasting is a transmission scheme. 
It is much more than a simple replacement for existing 
analogue television transmission. DVB provides more 
stations, clearer picture quality and other services 
displayed on the screen. It also allows a range of new 
features and services including subtitles and multiple 
audio tracks.

To watch DTV broadcasts, follow the procedures below 
to scan all available services in your area.

Press DTV or 

b to access the DTV mode.

displays.

c/d to 

select “Yes”, and then press OK to start the search.

The TV starts scanning all available DTV and 
radio services in your area.

NOTE
•  The language and country settings used in this operation 

are the settings you have already set while executing 
the Initial auto installation (Analogue). If you want to 
reconfigure the country setting, for instance after moving to 
another country, conduct “Auto Installation” from the Setup 
menu again.

•  The services are stored according to the channel number 

information embedded in the stream (if available). If 
the information is not available, the services are stored 
according to the order in which they were received.

  If you would like to sort the order, it is possible to arrange it 

as explained in page 24.

•  To cancel the scan in progress, press END.
•  You cannot select any DTV-related menu items unless 

“Auto Installation” has been completed.

This TV incorporates three typical AV Link functions 
for smooth connections between the TV and other 
audiovisual equipment.

While the TV is in standby mode, it automatically turns 
on and plays back the image from the audiovisual 
source (e.g. VCR, DVD).

When the remote control unit of the connected VCR 
has the WYSIWYR button, you can automatically start 
recording by pressing the WYSIWYR button.

Automatically transfers the channel preset information 
from the tuner on the TV to the one on the connected 
audiovisual equipment (e.g. VCR) via the EXT 2 
terminal.

NOTE
•  Refer to operation manuals of each external equipment for 

the details.

•  Only works when the audiovisual equipment is connected 

to the EXT 2 terminal on the TV with AV Link via a fully 
wired SCART.

•  The use of the AV Link function is only possible if the 

TV-set has enforced a complete auto-installation with the 
connected audiovisual equipment (page 8, Initial auto 
installation).

  The availability of the AV Link function depends on 

the audiovisual equipment used. Depending on the 
manufacturer and type of equipment used, it is possible 
that the described functions may be completely or partially 
unusable.
