This Guide contains all the relevant
information about the connection,
setting-up and use of your plasma
screen with a Bang & Olufsen
BeoSystem.
If you wish to mount the screen in a
wall bracket, please refer to the
Guide enclosed with the bracket.
This chapter describes how to set up the
screen in a BeoSystem setup.
Set up BeoVision 4
– The screen is developed for indoor use in
dry, domestic environments only, and for
use within a temperature range of 10–40°C
(50–105°F).
– The picture can be distorted at altitudes
where the air pressure is lower than 833 hPa
(approximately 1500 m (5000') or higher.
– Do not place any items on top of the screen.
– When lifting the screen, grip the top and
bottom edges (or the appropriate carrying
handles – if any). Remember to carry the
screen in such a way that it is in an upright
position at all times.
– The screen is not designed to stand on its
own. It must be supported until mounted on
a wall bracket or stand. To prevent injury,
use Bang & Olufsen approved stands or wall
brackets only!
– When mounting the screen in a wall bracket,
leave a space of at least 10 cm (4") at the
top, bottom and sides.
– Do not attempt to open the screen. Leave
such operations to qualified service
personnel!
Make sure to leave adequate space around the
screen for ventilation purposes. Do not cover the
ventilation holes on the rear, as this may cause the
screen to overheat.
Cautions
1Speaker connection panels. These socket are
not to be used when setting the screen up
with a Bang & Olufsen system – use the
Power Link sockets on the BeoSystem
instead.
2System connection panels.
3Mains supply connection.
For safety reasons, you must secure the mains
lead in the cable clamp (A). Otherwise, the mains
cable can be tugged free of the socket.

IR receiver: The screen has a built-in IR receiver. It
is therefore not necessary to mount a separat IR
receiver, as it is described in the BeoSystem
Reference book. Only if a projector screen covers
the built-in IR receiver when in use, you must
mount a second IR receiver and connect it to the
second IR-IN socket on your system.
Make the connections while both the screen
and your BeoSystem are disconnected from
the mains.
Connect the screen using the appropriate type
of cables. Refer to the illustration here – and
to the Reference book for your BeoSystem.
If in doubt, contact your Bang & Olufsen
retailer.
When all connections are made, connect your
whole system to the mains supply. The screen
(and the BeoSystem) can only be switched off
completely by disconnecting it from the mains
supply. However, the screen is designed to be
left in standby mode – ready for use.
It is necessary to secure the mains lead in the
cable bands. Otherwise, the mains cable can be
tugged free of the socket.
Sockets on the connection panel
The connection panels on the back of the screen
contain the sockets for connection to the
BeoSystem – and connection to the mains supply.
The socket marked PC IN (covered by a small lid) is
not to be used in a setup with a Bang & Olufsen
system!

When you press the standby button to switch
off the television after 120 hours of use have
passed since the last calibration, the screen
turns blank with a grey scale bar and a sensor
arm swings down from the television frame.
While the sensor arm calibrates, the bar will
change between various colours. When the
calibration has finished, the sensor arm
retracts and the television switches off.
Manual calibration sequence
The Auto Colour Management is available in
the on-screen menu, when the system is in
television mode and has been switched on for
more than two minutes.
> Press TV to switch on the system.
> Press Menu to bring up the TV SETUP menu
and press to highlight OPTIONS. (Beo4:
Use ).
> Press the centre button to bring up the OPTIONS
menu and press to highlight AUTO COLOUR
MANAGEMENT. (Beo4: Press GO and ).
> Press the centre button to activate AUTO
COLOUR MANAGEMENT. (Beo4: Press GO). All
text is removed from the menu, the sensor arm
swings down from the television frame and the
calibration process begins. The bar on the
screen will change between various colours.
When the calibration has finished, the bar is
removed, the sensor arm retracts and the
system returns to the last chosen source. The
message ‘CALIBRATION COMPLETE’ will be
displayed for a few seconds.
If the sensor arm does not swing down fully, the
calibration is not performed and the arm is retracted
if needed. If the calibration is initiated automatically,
the television will attempt to execute the calibration
the next time it is switched off. Contact your Bang &
Olufsen retailer to solve the problem.
Auto Colour Management
The Auto Colour Management auto-
matically compensates for colour
changes on the screen every
120 hours of use. Thereby it ensures
perfect colours on the screen
continuously. It is also possible to
activate the feature manually through
the BeoSystem TV Setup menu.
Do not switch off your system or disconnect it
from the mains during the calibration.

Maintenance
Normal maintenance, such as cleaning
the screen, is the responsibility of the
user. To achieve the best results,
follow the instructions on this page.
Please consult your Bang & Olufsen
retailer to determine recommendations
for normal maintenance.
Cabinet surfaces
Wipe dust off the surfaces using a dry, soft
cloth. Remove grease stains or persistent dirt
with a soft, lint-free, firmly wrung cloth,
dipped in a solution of water containing only
a few drops of mild detergent, such as
washing-up liquid.
Plasma screen
Clean only with the dry, soft cloth included
with the screen. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners.
Do not allow still pictures to be displayed on
the screen for an extended period of time, as
this can cause a permanent after-image to
remain on the screen. Examples of still
pictures are logos, video games, computer
images, and images displayed in 4:3 picture
format.
Do not leave the screen in contact with
articles containing rubber or PVC for long
periods of time.

Never use alcohol or other solvents to clean any
part of the screen!
Technical specifications, features and the use
thereof are subject to change without notice.

The European Parliament and the Council of the
European Union have issued the Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment Directive. The purpose of
the Directive is the prevention of waste of electrical
and electronic equipment, and to promote the reuse
and recycling and other forms of recovery of such
waste. As such the Directive concerns producers,
distributors and consumers.
The WEEE directive requires that both manufacturers
and end-consumers dispose of electrical and
electronic equipment and parts in an environmentally
safe manner, and that equipment and waste are
reused or recovered for their materials or energy.
Electrical and electronic equipment and parts must
not be disposed of with ordinary household refuse;
all electrical and electronic equipment and parts
must be collected and disposed of separately.
Products and equipment which must be collected
for reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery are
marked with the pictogram shown.
When disposing of electrical and electronic equip-
ment by use of the collection systems available in
your country, you protect the environment, human
health and contribute to the prudent and rational
use of natural resources. Collecting electrical and
electronic equipment and waste prevents the
potential contamination of nature with the
hazardous substances which may be present in
electrical and electronic products and equipment.
Your Bang & Olufsen retailer will assist with and
advise you of the correct way of disposal in your
country.
Small products may not always be marked with
the pictogram in which case this is present in the
instructions for use, on the guarantee certificate
and printed on the packaging.
This product is in conformity with the
provisions of the Directives 1999/5/EC
and 2006/95/EC.
