2 Important

Read and understand all instructions before you
use your TV. If damage is caused by failure to
follow instructions, the warranty does not apply.

Safety

Risk of electric shock or fire!

Never expose the TV to rain or water. •
Never place liquid containers, such as
vases, near the TV. If liquids are spilt on
or into the TV, disconnect the TV from
the power outlet immediately. Contact
Philips Consumer Care to have the TV
checked before use.
Never place the TV, remote control or •
batteries near naked flames or other heat
sources, including direct sunlight.
To prevent the spread of fire, keep
candles or other flames away from the
TV, remote control and batteries at all
times.

Never insert objects into the ventilation •
slots or other openings on the TV.
When the TV is swivelled ensure that •
no strain is exerted on the power cord.
Strain on the power cord can loosen
connections and cause arcing.

Risk of short circuit or fire!

Never expose the remote control or •
batteries to rain, water or excessive heat.
Avoid force coming onto power plugs. •
Loose power plugs can cause arcing or
fire.

Risk of injury or damage to the TV!

Two people are required to lift and carry •
a TV that weighs more than 25 kg.
When stand mounting the TV, use only •
the supplied stand. Secure the stand to
the TV tightly. Place the TV on a flat, level
surface that can support the combined
weight of the TV and the stand.
When wall mounting the TV, use only a •
wall mount that can support the weight of
the TV. Secure the wall mount to a wall
that can support the combined weight of
the TV and wall mount. Koninklijke Philips
Electronics N.V. bears no responsibility
for improper wall mounting that result in
accident, injury or damage.

Risk of injury to children!

Follow these precautions to prevent the
TV from toppling over and causing injury to
children:

Never place the TV on a surface covered •
by a cloth or other material that can be
pulled away.
Ensure that no par t of the TV hangs over •
the edge of the surface.
Never place the TV on tall furniture (such •
as a bookcase) without anchoring both
the furniture and TV to the wall or a
suitable support.
Educate children about the dangers of •
climbing on furniture to reach the TV.

Risk of overheating!

Never install the TV in a confined space. •
Always leave a space of at least 4 inches
or 10 cm around the TV for ventilation.
Ensure curtains or other objects never
cover the ventilation slots on the TV.

Risk of damage to the TV!

Before you connect the TV to the power •
outlet, ensure that the power voltage
matches the value printed on the back
of the TV. Never connect the TV to the
power outlet if the voltage is different.

4

EN

Risk of injury, fire or power cord damage!

Never place the TV or any objects on the •
power cord.
To disconnect the TV power cord easily •
from the power outlet, ensure that you
have full access to the power cord at all
times.
When you disconnect the power cord, •
always pull the plug, never the cable.
Disconnect the TV from the power •
outlet and antenna before lightning
storms. During lightning storms, never
touch any part of the TV, power cord or
antenna cable.

Risk of hearing damage!

Avoid using earphones or headphones at •
high volumes or for prolonged periods of
time.

Low temperatures

If the TV is transported in temperatures •
below 5°C, unpack the TV and wait
until the TV temperature matches room
temperature before connecting the TV to
the power outlet.

9 Troubleshooting

This section describes commonly encountered
issues and accompanying solutions.

General TV issues

The TV does not switch on:

Disconnect the power cable from the •
power outlet. Wait for one minute then
reconnect it.
Check that the power cable is securely •
connected.

The remote control is not working properly:

Check that the remote control batteries •
are correctly inser ted according to the
+/- orientation.
Replace the remote control batteries if •
they are flat or weak.
Clean the remote control and TV sensor •
lens.

The standby light on the TV blinks red:

Disconnect the power cable from the •
power outlet. Wait until the TV cools
down before reconnecting the power
cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact
Philips Consumer Care.

You forgot the code to unlock the TV lock
feature

Enter ‘8888’. •

The TV menu is in the wrong language.

Change the TV menu to your preferred •
language.

When turning the TV on / off / to standby, you
hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis:

No action is required. The creaking sound •
is normal expansion and contraction of
the TV as it cools down and warms up.
This does not impact performance.

TV channel issues

Previously installed channels do not appear in
the channel list:

Check that the correct channel list is •
selected.

Some channels are not automatically installed
on my TV:

During installation, make sure that •
you select the country where you are
installing the TV (see ‘Step 2 Select your
country’ on page 21).

Picture issues

The TV is on, but there is no picture:

Check that the antenna is properly •
connected to the TV.
Check that the correct device is selected •
as the TV source.

There is sound but no picture:

Check that the picture settings are •
correctly set.

There is poor TV reception from an antenna
connection:

Check that the antenna is properly •
connected to the TV.
Loudspeakers, unearthed audio devices, •
neon lights, high buildings and other large
objects can influence reception quality.
If possible, try to improve the reception
quality by changing the antenna direction
or moving devices away from the TV.
If reception on only one channel is poor, •
fine tune this channel.

There is poor picture quality from connected
devices:

Check that the devices are connected •
properly.
Check that the picture settings are •
correctly set.

The TV did not save your picture settings:

Check that the TV location is set to the •
home setting. This mode offers you the
flexibility to change and save settings.

English

EN

31

The picture does not fit the screen; it is too
big or too small:

Try using a different picture format. •

The picture position is incorrect:

Picture signals from some devices may •
not fit the screen correctly. Check the
signal output of the device.

Sound issues

There is a picture but sound quality is poor:

Note

If you use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter •
or HDMI-to-DVI cable, check that an
additional audio cable is connected to

AUDIO (mini-jack only).

Computer connection issues

The computer display on the TV is not stable:

Check that your PC uses the supported •
resolution and refresh rate.
Set the TV picture format to unscaled. •

If no audio signal is detected, the TV •
automatically switches the audio output off
— this does not indicate malfunction.

Check that all cables are properly •
connected.
Check that the volume is not set to 0. •
Check that the sound is not muted. •

There is a picture but the sound quality is
poor:

Check that the sound settings are •
correctly set.

There is a picture but sound comes from one
speaker only:

Verify that sound balance is set to the •
centre.

HDMI connection issues

There are problems with HDMI devices:

Note that HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital •
Content Protection) support can delay
the time taken for a TV to display content
from a HDMI device.
If the TV does not recognise the HDMI •
device and no picture is displayed, try
switching the source from one device to
another and back again.
If there are intermittent sound •
disruptions, check that output settings
from the HDMI device are correct.

Contact us

If you cannot resolve your problem, refer to the
FAQs for this TV at www.philips.com/suppor t.

If the problem remains unresolved, contact
Philips Consumer Care in your country as
listed in this user manual.

Warning

Do not attempt to repair the TV yourself. This •
may cause severe injury, irreparable damage to
your TV or void your warranty.

Note

Make a note of your TV model and serial •
number before you contact Philips. These
numbers are printed on the back of the TV
and on the packaging.
