Set the television to switch itself on and off
You can make your television switch
itself on and off automatically via the
timed play and timed standby
functions, for example, if there is a
programme you do not want to miss.
Enter as many as six Timer settings,
and bring up an on-screen list of the
Timer settings you have entered.
From this list, you can edit or delete
your Timer settings.
If your television is integrated with a
Bang & Olufsen audio or video
system with a Master Link cable,
these systems can perform the timed
play or timed standby functions as
well.
For your timed settings to be
executed correctly, ensure that the
built-in clock is set to the correct
time. For further information, refer to
the chapter ‘Set the time and date’
on page 23.

If you connect a Bang & Olufsen audio or video
product to your television with a Master Link
cable, you can exclude or include it in timed

and an audio system’s Play Timer to OFF if you
wish timed functions to apply only to the
television.
