BeoVision 7
Guide

Cautions
– Do not place the television in direct sunlight or
direct articial light, such as a spotlight, as this
may reduce the sensitivity of the remote control
receiver. Also if the screen is overheated, black
spots may appear in the picture. These spots
disappear again, once the television cools down
to normal temperature.
– Ensure that the television is positioned, set up
and connected in accordance with the
instructions in this Guide. To prevent injury, use
Bang & Olufsen stands or wall brackets only.
– The television is developed for indoor use in dry,
domestic environments only. Use within a
temperature range of 10–40°C (50–105°F).
– Do not place any items on top of the television.
– Place your television on a rm, stable surface.
– Do not attempt to open the television. Leave
such operations to qualied service personnel.
– Leave enough space around the television for
adequate ventilation.
– The disconnect device shall remain readily
operable.
– The supplied mains cord and plug are specially
designed for the television. If you change the
plug or in any way damage the mains cord, it
can affect the TV performance.

equipment
2*Link frequency
If an audio system is already connected to the MASTER LINK socket and
you wish to connect more equipment, the Master Link cable must be
split in two and joined with the cable from the link room using a special
junction box. Contact your Bang & Olufsen retailer for assistance.
When you change the link frequency in the main room TV, make sure
that the link frequency in the link room corresponds to it.
Connect and set up a BeoLink system
Connect and set up a BeoLink system to see pictures and hear sound in link
rooms. You can, for example, connect the living room TV to another video
system or to a set of speakers in another room.
If you have an audio setup, such as a
BeoLink Active/Passive, and you set up a non-
linkable TV in the same room, you must set
the system modulator to ‘ON’. The factory
setting is ‘AUTO’, which must be used if you
are using a linkable Bang & Olufsen TV.
Switch on the system modulator
To distribute video signals to link rooms, it
is necessary to connect an RF Link
Amplier to the main room TV and a link
room TV.*1
Make link connections
If, e.g., a TV channel in your area is
broadcasted on the same frequency as the
factory setting for the BeoLink system;
599 MHz, you must tune the system
modulator to an unoccupied frequency.*2
Change the link frequency
Connect the Master Link cable to the available
socket marked MASTER LINK on the TV.
To distribute video signals to link rooms,
connect an ordinary aerial cable to the socket
marked LINK TV on the main connection
panel. Then run the aerial cable to the RF Link
Amplier and the Master Link cable to the
link room. Follow the instructions enclosed
