B/G... for PAL/SECAM B/G
I... for PAL I

the various countries.

number (1-99) you wish to preset the station on.

tuning menu.
What’s on the second TV tuning menu…
Fine (fine tuning)... The TV automatically tunes to
the best possible picture. However, neighbouring
channels may blur the picture slightly, in which
case fine tuning may be required. You fine tune
by 8 steps above or below the standard frequency.
Decoder... A decoder can be connected to the
BeoVision Avant for the reception of coded TV
programs.
If you tune in a coded TV station and want the
decoder to be cut in automatically, set the item
Decoder to one of the On options below:
ON/AV... (decoder on) where both audio and
video signals are coded
ON/V... (decoder on) where only video signals
are coded
OFF... (decoder off) for no decoder
Select ON/AV for most coded programs to get
both sound and pictures. If only the video signal is
coded, select ON/V. If you select ON/AV where
only the video signal is coded, the sound may be
lost when the signal is decoded.
Note: If an extra decoder is connected to the
BeoVision Avant AV socket and Decoder-2 is
entered into the AV Source menu ( see page 50,
Extra video equipment), you can choose between
1/AV or 1/V, for decoder-1, and 2/AV or 2/V for
decoder-2 or OFF for no decoder.
Sound (mono/stereo/language)... Several types of
sound may available for a TV station, for example
both stereo and mono sound, or several different
languages.
To store the type of sound (mono/stereo) or the
language you prefer along with a TV station,
press
▲ or ▼ to switch between the ones currently
transmitted, when the sound you wish to store is
heard/displayed, press GO.
Note: Even though you store your preferred type
of sound/language in this way, you may still
switch between the various types of sound while
you are watching this TV station.

control, then press GO repeatedly to switch
