General I would like to have louder 
sound by connecting 
additional speakers
1) Use the 3.5mm headphone output and a 3.5mm to phono cable 
(available separately) to connect to an amplifi er/surround sound system. 
Please note this will deactivate the TV’s built in speakers.
2) Connect a COAX cable from the TV’s COAX output to your 
amplifi er/surround systems COAX input.
General Why are some options in 
the menu unavailable and 
greyed out
Some options are only available in certain sources, i.e. HDMI. They are
unavailable in the other sources where they have no affect.
General Can I stop my TV automatically 
turning off after 4hrs? 
Yes
1) In the picture settings menu, de-select Home Mode.
2) In the time settings menu, scroll down to Auto standby and select OFF.
TV I have tuned in Digital TV 
but I am not receiving any 
or all of the channels and/
or the channels I receive are 
breaking up
1) Check you are in an area that can receive Freeview. 
Visit www.freeview.co.uk
2) Check you are using an aerial that is able to receive a good digital 
signal. In most cases, you will need an outdoor digital hi-gain/wideband 
aerial. In areas that have excellent digital coverage, you may be able 
to use a loft type aerial but it is highly likely that you will also need to 
connect a booster between the back of the TV and the TV aerial wall 
socket. Unfortunately, to receive a good enough digital signal, it is not 
possible to use a portable/indoor type aerial.
TV I have re-tuned my television 
but when I switch it off it is 
not storing the channels
Complete a fi rst time installation, please refer to the set-up menu section 
of the manual of how to do this.
VCR/DVD
Recorder
I have connected the TV to 
my VCR or DVD Recorder via 
SCART but it is not recording
In addition to connecting via SCART, you should connect the aerial cable 
from the wall socket to your VCR/DVD Recorder and another aerial cable 
from the VCR/DVD Recorder to the TV.
DVD I have inserted a disc but it is 
not playing
1) Ensure you have inserted the disc facing the correct way.
2) Ensure the disc is clean and is not scratched.
3) Some copied discs will not play.
4) Check the DVD is a region 2 disc – to change the region of the DVD 
player, refer to www.umc-uk.co.uk select ‘product support’, ‘changing 
region’.
DVD I have pressed the eject 
button but the disc is not 
coming out
To eject the disc hold the stop/eject button for 4 seconds.
Game Consoles I have connected my PS3 to 
the TV via HDMI, but I am 
not receiving any pictures or 
sound on my Television
1) Ensure the TVs source is on HDMI.
2) Check your settings on your PS3 are as per the PS3 instruction manual.
Game Consoles I have connected my 
Xbox 360 to the TV via 
Component Cables (Red, 
Green & Blue) but I am not 
receiving any sound
Component cables only provide HD Pictures. For the sound you will need 
to connect the Red & White audio cables on the Xbox to the Red & White 
phono inputs on the rear of the TV. Please refer to the ‘Connections’ 
pages.
USB Mode I have inserted a USB 
Memory Key, but the TV 
does not recognise it
Ensure the USB Memory Key is formatted to type FAT32.
USB Mode Using a USB portable hard 
drive / larger than 32GB
If you wish to use a portable hard drive larger than 32GB, please note 
that it must be formatted to the FAT32 fi le system in order to operate on 
this TV. Windows XP/Vista computers are only capable of formatting up 
to 32GB, therefore, you will need a software programme/utility to format 
larger hard drives. Please refer to the web site for more information.
System Lock I have changed the password
on the television and now
forgotten it
There is a master password of 4711, to gain access to the TV menu and
reset the normal password.
