Welcome  
Thank you!  
Transporting  
At Loewe, we combine the highest standards of technology, design and  
user friendliness. This applies equally for TV, video and accessories.  
Your new TV set is ideally equipped for the TV standard of the future -  
”HDTV” (High Definition Television). With its high-resolution screen and  
the future-proof digital interfaces HDMI, you have the option to view HD  
content with excellent picture quality. It therefore carries the European  
quality mark “HD ready”.  
Only transport the unit in an upright position. Hold the set by the top and  
bottom edges of the housing. The plasma/LCD screen is made of glass  
and/or plastic and may break if not handled carefully. Should the LCD  
screen become damaged or should the liquid crystal begin to leak, then  
it is imperative you wear rubber gloves when removing the set. Should  
the liquid come in contact with your skin, thoroughly rinse with water  
immediately.  
Digital TV is steadily spreading via terrestrial reception, in the cable network  
and via satellite. Loewe supplies sets equipped with DVB-T and DVB-C  
(DVB-C not for UK). A digital satellite tuner (DVB-S) can be retrofitted. The  
DVB integrated within the TV set is operated via the TV set menus using the  
remote control.  
We have designed this TV set so that it is easy to operate by using menus.  
Information about settings in menus is shown automatically; this enables  
you to understand the context quickly.  
You will find the answers to many of your technical queries in the index of  
your TV. If you want to operate the TV, you can access functions directly  
from the index. This saves you from having to read through detailed  
operating instructions and is the reason why this operating manual only  
explains the most important operating steps.  
Installation options  
As a desktop unit  
Use the stand included in delivery. There are assembly instructions included  
with the stand. First read these assembly instructions and then set up your  
set.  
As a wall-mounted unit  
Use the wall holder WM52 for Xelos A 26, Loewe order no. 63493A00.  
Use the wall holder WM53 for Xelos A 32/37, Loewe order no. 63493A10.  
Use the wall holder WM61 for Xelos A 42, Loewe order no. 64495L00.  
As unit mounted on a rack for Xelos A 32/37  
Use the Xelos Rack, Loewe order no. 64496.A00.  
Or use the Flat-TV F-Stand 3, Loewe order no. 64498.A00.  
TV equipment  
As a rotating, free-standing unit mounted on a rack for Xelos A 32/37/42  
Use the Xelos 42 Rack, Loewe order no. 64496.A01.  
The maximum equipment is described in these operating instructions  
(without optional retrofit kits). Functions indicated by are not available in  
all TV sets. Menu contents may differ from the ones shown, depending on  
how your TV is equipped.  
Note on the LCD screen  
The TV set with an LCD screen you have purchased meets the highest  
quality requirements and has been tested for pixel errors. Despite the  
utmost caution in production of the displays, it cannot be totally ruled  
out that some of the pixels might be defective for technological reasons.  
Please understand that such effects cannot be considered a unit defect as  
defined by the warranty as long as they are within the limits specified by  
the standard.  
You can display how your set is equipped in the “Integrated features“  
index (press the INFO button in the TV mode if no menu is displayed; the  
“Integrated features“ menu item is also displayed in the index before the  
initial letter A).  
There are separate operating instructions for Digital Recorder Plus with the  
additional DVB satellite tuner.

Welcome  
Note on the plasma screen (Xelos A 42)  
The TV set with plasma screen you have purchased meets the highest  
quality requirements and has been tested for pixel errors. Despite the  
utmost caution in production of the displays, it cannot be totally ruled out  
that some of the pixels might be defective for technological reasons. Please  
understand that such effects cannot be considered a unit defect as defined  
by the warranty as long as they are within the limits specified.  
For plasma screens, the emission of light decreases the longer the unit is  
used.  
Plasma screens work by using phosphor. In certain operating conditions,  
this technology may facilitate image burns. These operating conditions  
include:  
• Lengthy, continuous display of a freeze frame (>10 minutes).  
• Constant display of the same background.  
Disposal  
Packing and box  
You have chosen a long lasting technical product of very high quality. We  
have paid a fee to authorised recyclers who will collect the packing from  
your dealer for disposal, pursuant to domestic regulations. Nevertheless,  
we recommend you to keep the original box and packing material for  
optimum protection if you have to transport the set.  
The set  
Attention: The EU directive 2002/96/EC regulates the  
proper way to recycle, handle and utilise used electronic  
devices. Hence, all used electronic devices are to be  
disposed of separately. Please do not dispose of this set  
in the normal household rubbish.  
You may return your used set free of charge at  
designated recycling centres or at your specialist  
dealer whenever you purchase a new, comparable set. You can find out  
more about recycling (also for countries outside the EU) from your local  
government.  
• Use of a format that does not entirely fill the screen (such as 4:3) for a  
longer period of time.  
Once an image is burnt into the display, it is usually not possible to remedy  
the problem; this situation is neither covered by the warranty nor by the  
guarantee. To avoid or reduce image burns on your screen, please follow  
these instructions and recommendations:  
• During the first 100 hours of operation, you should display moving  
pictures for the most part or freeze frames that change frequently; these  
images are to fill the entire screen.  
• Use your screen in a full screen format (16:9).  
• If you use the screen as a PC monitor, always activate the screen saver.  
• Always switch off the TV set when not in use.  
• Reduce contrast and brightness as much as possible.  
The “DRM” function (Digital Refresh Mode), which can be called in this set,  
may be able to eliminate or reduce minor visible effects.  
Any effects resulting from an excessively long display of a freeze frame  
cannot be reversed using the “DRM” function.  
Cleaning  
Use only a soft, clean, damp cloth to clean the TV set, the screen and  
remote control (do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents).

For your safety  
For your safety and to avoid unnecessary damage to your TV set, please  
read and observe the following safety instructions:  
Position the set so that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and additional  
heating from radiators.  
• Prevent any metal parts, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax or the like  
from getting into the TV set through the air venting slits in the rear  
panel. This can lead to short-circuits and possibly to fire. If something  
should get into the inside of the TV set, pull out the plug immediately  
and notify customer service.  
• This TV set is designed exclusively for reception and reproduction of  
video and audio signals.  
• This equipment is designed for domestic and  
office environments and must not be used in  
rooms with high humidity  
• Never remove the back of the TV set yourself. Repair and servicing of  
your TV set should only be carried out by authorised TV technicians.  
(e.g. bathroom, sauna) or  
high concentrations of dust  
(e.g. workshops). If the  
equipment is used in the  
open air, ensure that it is  
protected against moisture  
(rain, drips, splashes,  
sprayed water or dew). Do  
not place any containers  
filled with liquids or lit  
candles on top of the TV.  
• Place the TV set on a level, firm base. The set should not protrude at the  
front when installing in cabinets or shelves.  
Only use original accessories if possible, e.g. Loewe wall holders and  
stands.  
Never let children handle the TV unattended.  
Do not allow children to play in the immediate vicinity of the TV, they  
could knock, shift or pull it over and injure someone.  
Never leave the TV on unsupervised.  
.
• Do not install the TV where there may be vibrations. Vibrations can lead  
to material stress.  
High levels of moisture and  
• Pull out the power and antenna cables during thunderstorms. Surge  
voltages caused by lightning strikes can damage the TV through the  
antenna system and the mains. Also remove the antenna and mains  
plugs in long periods of absence.  
concentrations of dust cause leakage currents in the equipment, which  
can lead to danger of electric shock or fire.  
The manufacturer‘s warranty is only valid for use in the specified  
permissible environment.  
• The mains plug of the TV set must be easily accessible so that the set  
can be disconnected at any time.  
• If you have moved the TV set out of the cold into a warm environment,  
leave it standing for about an hour since condensation may form.  
• Lay the mains cable in such a way that it will not be damaged. The  
power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, not stood on  
and not exposed to chemicals, the latter also applies to the device as  
a whole. A mains cable with damaged insulation can lead to electric  
shocks and is a fire risk.  
• This equipment must  
only be connected to  
10 cm  
a mains power supply  
which has the same  
voltage and frequency  
as that specified on the  
rating plate; use the  
power cable provided.

equipment.  
• Like all electronic  
equipment, your TV  
needs air for cooling. Obstruction of the air circulation can cause fires.  
Therefore the air vents on the back must always be kept free. Please do  
not place newspapers or cloths on/over the TV. If the TV is placed in a  
cabinet or on a shelf, leave at least 10 cm at the sides and 10 cm at the  
top to ensure sufficient air circulation.

First installation  
If the reception conditions are good, then a room antenna may be used  
for DVB-T. Passive and active room antennas are available on the market.  
The power is supplied for an active antenna via the antenna connection.  
For automatic programming or in “TV Menu – Connections – Antenna  
DVB – Antenna DVB-T,“ the distribution voltage (5 volts) is to be set  
correspondingly.  
It may be practical to use a nondirectional antenna. If the location is  
outside the normal transmitting range, then a unidirectional antenna may  
also be used to improve the reception quality.  
Using the common interface module  
(only for sets with CI slot)  
In order to be able to receive encrypted digital stations, the common  
interface module (CI module) and the smartcard both have to be inserted  
into the corresponding slot of your TV set. You can purchase the CI module  
and smartcard at your specialist dealer. You can find the slot on the back of  
your TV set, see the illustrations on pages 6 – 8.  
1. Make sure the TV set is switched off with the mains switch on the set,  
or pull the mains plugs.  
2. First push the smartcard into the CI module as far as it will go. Insert

more electricity, switch the set off with the mains switch. However, please  
bear in mind that EPG data (electronic programme guide) will be lost and  
programmed timer recordings will not be performed by the TV.  
If you use a room antenna to receive one or more DVB-T stations that have  
picture and sound interference, then you should change the location of  
where the antenna is set up. To help you direct your antenna or to help  
you determine the most suitable location to set up the antenna, your TV  
set has a display for the signal quality C/N and the signal strength Level.  
Consult your specialist dealer to find out which channels and frequency  
bands (VHF or UHF) are used to broadcast the digital TV stations in your  
area.On any one channel, several digital stations are broadcast.  
Select a TV channel  
Switching off  
If the TV set is switched on, you can switch it to standby  
using the blue ON/OFF button on the remote control or  
by using the indicator field on the set. The red lamp on  
the TV set lights up. If the orange indicator lights up or if  
both the green and red indicators light up, then, for Xelos  
A 32/37, a timer recording is being made, EPG data is  
being captured or radio operation without screen display  
is active.

should only change the bandwidth under special circumstances - if the  
channel raster in your area is different from the standard.  
When you receive a digital station, the system displays the signal quality  
C/N via a bar/numeric value and the signal strength via Level. The  
antenna‘s direction or position is best when the largest values possible  
are displayed (long bar) for the signal quality and signal strength.

you have to first switch it into the standby mode via the mains switch and  
then switch it on by using the blue On/Off button on the remote control or  
by using the indicator window on the set.

search run by pressing the blue button within the band selected (VHF or

9. Check the other channels one after another on which digital stations  
are broadcast terrestrially in your area.  
For the weakest station, direct the antenna so that the maximum  
numerical value/bar size is achieved.  
10.After you position or direct the antenna, we recommend to search  
for all the stations using the “Search wizard“ (TV menu – Settings –  
Stations – Search wizard).

Now all stations are displayed (the DVB stations, too). Stations indicated  
with E are analogue terrestrial/cable stations; stations indicated with D are  
digital stations ready for the programme guide. Select the stations you  
want to omit from the programme guide one after another and deactivate  
each one by using OK.  
In front of the programme‘s title, the system places an

switched to later when the set is switched on. If the TV is off, it switches on  
again automatically at the beginning of the marked programme if this  
has been set in the EPG menu. If you are out, a security prompt prevents  
the TV set staying on unattended.  
Before leaving the upper selection lines using the blue colour key, select a  
specific line. If you have switched back to the station list, you can change  
this menu line using ꢀꢁ without having to leave the station list.  
Data entry  
After these settings or after each time the set is switched off using the  
mains switch, the data must first be collected, before switching on the set.  
To do this, select the station you have defined as a provider and leave the  
TV set switched on for about one hour or switch the set to the standby  
mode. After about two minutes, the orange indicator on the set lights up  
(for Xelos A 32/37, both indicators light up). The data capture begins and  
lasts about 1 hour. The data are also automatically collected between 2  
a.m. and 5 a.m. when the TV is switched to standby.  
Programming recording for recorders  
You can prepare the station for recording marked using the ꢂꢃ buttons  
by pressing the red colour key. In the following menu, confirm the timer  
data or change them as required. Then a red dot is set in front of this  
programme in the EPG station list as an identification. If you select this  
programme, you can delete it from the timer using the red colour key (if  
the timer data has been transferred to the recorder, the timer has to be  
deleted there).  
A prerequisite for data acquisition is that “Data capture“ is “on“ (for DVB +  
analogue) in the EPG menu.  
Note: If the TV set is switched off using the mains switch or the mains plug  
is pulled out, all EPG data are lost.

Video playback  
There are several ways to see the picture and hear the sound of the VCR,  
Timer recording with video or DVD recorder  
You can programme timer recordings on the TV set. Programming can be  
done with the EPG programme guide (not with DVB-T in UK), teletext or  
DVD player/recorder or camcorder on your TV:  
manually. Call the “Timer list” menu with the  
button and press the  
1. You can usually use the Euro-AV sockets on the TV set and on the VCR.  
For camcorders or digital cameras, use the AVS sockets on the right of  
the TV set. DVD players/recorders and SetTopBoxes may have HDMI or  
component sockets for video and audio transmission. In this case, use  
the corresponding sockets on the TV set.  
red colour key for the “Recording wizard”. Select whether you want to  
programme the recording via EPG, teletext or manually. You also have the  
option to programme recordings directly from the EPG programme guide  
or teletext.  
Note: Copy-protected programmes are not output to the Euro-AV sockets  
for legal reasons.  
When you have connected the Euro-AV socket to a recorder which has  
Digital Link Plus or a comparable system from a different manufacturer,  
the timer data of analogue terrestrial stations are transmitted from the  
TV to the recorder. The recording quality SQ or EQ is transmitted for DVD  
recorders, in additional to the station, date and time. The recording is then  
controlled by the recorder and the recorder tuner is used for reception of  
the station. The recording data are not saved in the timer list of the TV set.  
You will only find the timer data in the recorder.  
When playing back from a video recorder using Euro-AV socket and  
Digital Link Plus (or a comparable system from another manufacturer),  
the picture from the VCR is shown at the current programme location.  
When playing back from another VCR, camcorder or digital camera, use  
AV  
the AV selection  
or the station list (OK) to select the AV socket/  
the device to which the VCR is connected.  
Video recorders transmit a switching voltage during playback, which  
the TV can evaluate (can be activated in the connection wizard or in the  
“TV menu – Connections – Miscellaneous – Allow switching voltage“ -  
set to “yes“). Then the picture of the video recorder is shown during  
playback at the current station location.  
If you want to record from digital stations, the TV tuner is used and the  
recorder is controlled by the TV set. Then the station is locked during the  
timer recording.  
2. You can use the antenna connection between the VCR and the TV  
without a Euro-AV socket. The sound is only transmitted in mono.  
Select the first menu item, e.g. VIDEO, in the AV selection.  
If you have connected a Loewe video recorder with Digital Link to the  
Euro-AV socket (without Digital Link Plus) and you are using the timer  
programming of the TV, the TV receiver is always used, for terrestrial  
stations as well. The TV controls the recording.  
You have to set the recorder to the AV input (signal source) to which the TV  
set is connected.

Digital Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the operating  
instructions of your Loewe recorder.Use only Euro-AV cables, which are  
completely shielded, otherwise Digital Link/Digital Link Plus will not work.  
Another advantage of Digital Link is that you can install the recorder in a  
concealed place (e.g. in a rack). You can control the recorder with the TV  
set.  
If you have a Loewe recorder with both systems, you can use all the  
advantages. The advantages of Digital Link Plus are used for the timer  
recording; the advantages of Digital Link for concealed installation of the  
recorder.

Audio output “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT“  
Assignment of digital audio inputs and  
outputs  
The digital audio signal is applied at the “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT” socket of  
the TV. For example, you can connect an external digital audio amplifier or  
the Loewe Auro system here.  
Audio input “AUDIO DIGITAL IN”  
The TV set has a coaxial digital audio input “AUDIO DIGITAL IN” and a  
coaxial digital audio output “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT”. If you are using an  
external digital surround amplifier for sound reproduction, you have to  
feed digital audio signals to the TV, e.g. from the DVD player.  
An analogue audio signal from the TV set or another sound source  
which is received at one of the Euro-AV sockets of the TV set is con-  
verted into a digital signal (PCM) and output at the “AUDIO DIGITAL  
OUT“ socket. Conversion from external analogue AV sources to PCM  
is not possible if the TV‘s loudspeakers are used as a centre channel. In  
this case, connect your audio amplifier additionally to the TV (AUDIO  
OUT L/R) with a cinch cable and switch the audio amplifier to ana-  
logue audio input.
