TruSurround HD builds upon its predecessor, the industry leading surround sound virtualiser, SRS TruSurround XT. Not only does TruSurround HD process up to 6.1 channels for playback over two speakers or headphones, but it also utilises additional proprietary algorithms from SRS Labs to optimise bass performance, for deep rich bass, dialogue clarity for better intelligibility of vocals, and definition control for maximum high-frequency clarity.

Why do I get blocking on my digital picture?

In most cases, blocking is caused by a reception problem either the signal is too weak or there is some kind of interference. Talk to your retailer or contact your local aerial installer.

Blocking can also be caused by a digital signal that is too strong. If you are still experiencing blocking and the signal is strong, consult your local aerial installer for advice.

Can I watch Freeview using a portable set-top aerial?

Some, but only a few, homes may be able to use a set top aerial. However, for a much better reception, we strongly recommend that you use a rooftop aerial.

If you do not have access to a rooftop aerial for example, if you rent a flat and the aerial is the responsibility of your landlord, or if youre using a second TV in the bedroom and dont want the hassle and expense of using extension cables, a set top aerial may be your only option.

What type of aerial do I need?

If you are installing a new aerial, we recommend a wideband rooftop aerial rather than a loft aerial. Loft aerials generally receive a weaker digital signal and are more likely to get interference from other electrical devices in the home. We suggest you have an aerial survey done before getting an aerial upgrade.

Talk to your retailer or contact your local aerial installer.

Safety Warnings

Read all the instructions carefully before using the unit and keep them for future reference.

Retain the manual. If you pass the unit onto a third party make sure to include this manual.

Check that the voltage marked on the rating label matches your mains voltage.

Damage Please inspect the unit for damage after unpacking.

Do not continue to operate the unit if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way - switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.

Location of Unit The unit must be placed on a flat stable surface and

should not be subjected to vibrations.

Do not place the unit on sloped or unstable surfaces as the unit may fall off or tip over.

The mains socket must be located near the unit and should be easily accessible.

This unit is designed for indoor, domestic use only.

Temperature Avoid extreme degrees of temperature, either hot or

cold. Place the unit well away from heat sources such as radiators or gas / electric fires.

Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and other sources of heat.

Naked Flames Never place any type of candle or naked flame on the

top of or near the unit.

Moisture To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or product

damage, do not expose this unit to rain, moisture, dripping or splashing. No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the unit.

If you spill any liquid into the unit, it can cause serious damage. Switch it off at the mains immediately. Withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.

Ventilation To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire hazard

due to overheating, ensure that curtains and other materials do not obstruct the ventilation vents.

Do not install or place this unit in a bookcase, built-in cabinet or in another confined space. Ensure the unit is well ventilated.

Make sure that there is a gap of at least 10 cm on both sides and a gap of 20 cm at the top.

Safety Always disconnect the unit from the mains supply

before connecting / disconnecting other devices or moving the unit.

Unplug the unit from the mains socket during a lightning storm.

Mains Cable Make sure the unit or unit stand is not resting on top of

the mains cable, as the weight of the unit may damage the mains cable and create a safety hazard.

If the mains cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Interference Do not place the unit on or near appliances which may

cause electromagnetic interference. If you do, it may adversely affect the operating performance of the unit, and cause a distorted picture or sound.

Optimum viewing View the unit in moderate light to prevent eye strain. It

is recommended to watch the unit from a distance 3-7 times that of the screen height.

LCD screen The LCD screen is manufactured using high-precision

technology. However, some tiny black points and / or bright points (red, blue or green in colour) may constantly appear on the LCD screen. These points are generated in the manufacturing process and are normal.

Screen Burn A characteristic of Plasma and TV Panels is that

displaying the same image for a long time may cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen. This is called screen burn. Most pictures shown on the unit will be constantly moving and fill the screen.

Examples of images that you need to watch out for are as follows (this is not an all-inclusive list):

1. Black Bars: If black bars appear at the left / right or top / bottom of the screen, it is recommended to change the format so that the picture fills the entire screen.

2. TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos and pricing displays - especially if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.

3. Time Displays 4. Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long

periods of time.

5. TV Menus 6. Pause Mode: Do not leave the screen in pause

mode for long periods of time, e.g. when watching videos.

To prevent screen burn if viewing any of the above for long periods of time, reduce contrast and brightness when viewing. Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.
