UNDERSTANDING AUTOLOCK™

he AutoLock™ feature receives

and processes data sent by broadcasters or other program providers that contain program content advisories. When programmed by the viewer, a TV with AutoLock™ can respond to the content advisories and block program content that may be found objectionable (such as offensive language, violence, sexual situations, etc.). This is a great feature to censor the type of programming children may watch.

In the AutoLock™ section, you’ll learn how to block channels and programming that is not rated, is unrated, or has no rating. You will also find out how to turn these blocking features ON or OFF. Following are brief explanations of some terms and ratings related to the AutoLock™ feature.

AutoLock™ offers various Blocking Options from which to choose:

BLOCKING: The BLOCKING con-

trol is what can be thought of as the Òmaster switchÓ for AutoLockª. This control affects the settings you have chosen for blocking programs according to movie ratings or TV ratings, or for blocking programs that have no rating or are unrated. When the BLOCKING control is OFF, the blocking or censoring of programs is disabled. When the BLOCKING control is ON, blocking will occur according to the settings you have chosen.

BLOCK UNRATED: ALL unrated programs will be blocked if this feature is set to ON.

UNRATED programming is encoded with information from the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) or TV broadcasters, but it does not have a specific rating. In other words, the MPAA or the TV broadcasters have chosen not to assign a rating to the programming.

NO RATING: ALL programming with no content advisory data can be blocked if NO RATING is set to ON.

Programming that has No Rating is not encoded with any rating information from the MPAA or the Parental Guidelines. Any programming could fall into this category.

You also can block individual channels or block programming

based on ratings of the MPAA and TV broadcasters. (See a description of the ratings on this page.)

G: General Audience - All ages admitted. Most parents would find this programming suitable for all ages. This type of programming contains little or no violence, no strong language, and little or no sexual dialogue or sexual situations.

PG: Parental Guidance Suggested -

PG-13: Parents Strongly Cautioned - This programming contains material that parents may find unsuitable for children under the age of 13. It contains one or more of the following: violence, sexual situations, coarse language, or suggestive dialogue.

R: Restricted -This programming is specifi- cally designed for adults. Anyone under the age of 17 should view this programming only with an accompanying parent or adult guardian. It contains one or more of the following: intense violence; intense sexual situations; strong, coarse language; or intensely suggestive dialogue.

CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, compact disc interactive [CDI], or TV information channel) that shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source, the pattern of the nonmoving portion of the game (or other source) can leave a permanent image on the picture tube. When youÕre not using the video source, turn it OFF. Also, regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

Alternate Channel ¥ The feature that allows you to toggle between the last two channels viewed by pressing the A/CH button on the remote control.

Auto Programming ¥ The feature that, when activated, scans for all available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast stations in the TVÕs memory.

Channel Edit ¥ The feature that allows you to add or delete channels from the list of channels stored in the TVÕs memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to limit or expand the number of channels that are available to you when you press the Channel (+) or (Ð) buttons on your remote control.

Closed Captioning ¥ The broadcast standard feature that allows you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired, Closed Captioning uses on-screen Òtext boxesÓ to show dialogue and conversations while a TV program is in progress.

Coaxial Cable ¥ A single, solid antenna wire normally matched with a metal plug (F type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly onto a 75-ohm input found on the television or VCR.

Direct Audio/Video Inputs ¥ Connectors, located on the rear of the TV, used for the input of audio and video signals. These inputs are designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound-connection options.

Identify ¥ The method by which a TV remote control searches and finds an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or a cable converter). After the code has been Òidentified,Ó the TV remote control can operate and send commands to the other product.

Incredible Stereo (or Surround) ¥ False acoustic management of the audio signal that produces a dramatic expansion of the wall of sound that surrounds the listener and heightens overall viewing pleasure.

Remote Control Sensor Window ¥ The window or opening found on the television control panel and through which infrared remote control command signals are received.

Second Audio Program (SAP) ¥ An additional audio channel provided for within the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV material.

STATUS Button ¥ The remote control function that allows you to quickly confirm what channel number is being viewed. STA- TUS also can be used to clear the television of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to Òtime out,Ó or automatically disappear from the screen). In the DVD mode, pressing the STATUS button will display the DVD Player on-screen menu.

Twin-Lead Wire ¥ The more commonly used name for the twostrand, 300-ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor antenna systems.

This product can be repaired in-home.

LIMITED WARRANTY

WHO IS COVERED?

You must have proof of purchase to receive warranty service. A sales receipt or other document showing that you purchased the product is considered proof of purchase.

WHAT IS COVERED?

Warranty coverage begins the day you buy your product. For 90 days thereafter, all parts will be repaired or replaced free, and labor is free.

From 90 days to one year from the day of purchase, all parts will be repaired or replaced free, but you pay for all labor charges. From one to two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts except the picture tube, and for all labor charges. After two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts, and for all labor charges.

All parts, including repaired and replaced parts, are covered only for the original warranty period. When the warranty on the product expires, the warranty on all replaced and repaired parts also expires.

WHAT IS EXCLUDED?

Your warranty does not cover:

• labor charges for installation or setup of the product, adjustment of customer controls on the product, and installation or repair of antenna systems outside of the product.

• product repair and/or part replacement because of misuse, accident, unauthorized repair or other cause not within the control of Philips Consumer Electronics Company.

• reception problems caused by signal conditions or cable or antenna systems outside the unit.

• a product that requires modification or adaptation to enable it to operate in any country other than the country for which it was designed, manufactured, approved and/or authorized, or repair of products damaged by these modifications.

• incidental or consequential damages resulting from the product. (Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This includes, but is not limited to, prerecorded material, whether copyrighted or not copyrighted.)

• a product used for commercial or institutional purposes.

WHERE IS SERVICE AVAILABLE?

Warranty service is available in all countries where the product is officially distributed by Philips Consumer Electronics Company. In countries where Philips Consumer Electronics Company does not distribute the product, the local Philips service organization will attempt to provide service (although there may be a delay if the appropriate spare parts and technical manual(s) are not readily available).

MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...

Please keep your sales receipt or other document showing proof of purchase. Attach it to this owner’s manual and keep both nearby. Also keep the original box and packing material in case you need to return your product.

BEFORE REQUESTING SERVICE...

Please check your owner’s manual before requesting service. Adjustments of the controls discussed there may save you a service call.

TO GET WARRANTY SERVICE IN U.S.A., PUERTO RICO OR U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS...

Contact a Philips factory service center (see enclosed list) or authorized service center to arrange repair.

(In U.S.A., Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands, all implied warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited in duration to the duration of this express warranty.
