Mounting to sheetrock wall

Note: Bracket can only be used with standard 16" spaced wood wall studs.

Bracket must be positioned so that the bracket is fastened firmly to studs at each end. All required hardware is included.

Note: Because the Receiver Unit’s power cord is 6’, when determining the

Display Unit mounting location, the distance to the nearest AC power outlet must be considered.

& Determine desired location to mount Display Unit.

Within this area, locate the two 16.54" spaced wall studs that must be used as the Wall Bracket mounting location. (fig. 1 and 2)

é With the Wall Bracket held in place, ensure it is properly leveled.

Then, mark where the four holes must be drilled. (fig. 2)

Note: Use only the holes in Bracket.

“ Remove the Wall Bracket, and using a 13/64" wood drill bit, drill the

four holes. (fig. 3)

‘ Reposition the Wall Bracket, and with four lag bolts (fig. 4), secure

into place.Tighten with 13mm or 1/2" socket wrench. (fig. 5)

Note: Do not use plastic wall anchors with these lag bolts.

Note: Lag bolts must be fastened and centered securely into the stud.

the other end to the

VGA 1 connector at the rear side of the monitor. Fix the

connectors firmly with the screws on the plug.

é In case of a Multimedia computer, connect the audio cable 2 to the audio

outputs of your Multimedia computer and to the

AUDIO VGA 1 R (right) and

L (left) inputs of the TV monitor.

VGA 2: The video connector for VGA 2 can be programmed to become an input or an output via the Setup menu, see p. 8.The function of being input or output is determined by the used mode. If the monitor is used in TV mode, the VGA2 connector is VGA output. If the monitor is used in monitor mode,the connector is VGA input or output.

To a TV receiver box

See the handbook of the TV receiver box.

& Connect one end of a VGA cable to the video card of the computer and the

other end to the

PC/MAC IN connector at the rear side of the TV receiver

box. Fix the connectors firmly with the screws on the plug.

Ambient temperature

Do not hang up the monitor above a central heating or other heating sources.

Care of the screen

Clean the anti-reflex coated flat glass screen with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not use abrasives solvents as it can damage the glass surface of the screen.

Plasma Display characteristics Caution:A video source (such as a video

game, DVD, or TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause damage to the screen.When your Flat-TV is continuously used with such a source, the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (DVD, etc.) could leave an image permanently on the screen.When not in use, turn the video source OFF. Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

When switching over to another picture after having displayed the same still picture for a long time (many hours), it may happen that some parts from the previous picture will remain on screen due to a kind of memory effect.This ghost picture will disappear after some time.To avoid this effect change the pictures regularly or for PC use you can turn on a screen saver in your computer. Philips has built in an automatic shift of the picture in video mode every 5 minutes to decrease this effect and to prolong the life of the screen. Very incidentally and after a longer period of unuse (approx. 1 year) the screen may display some strange color deficiencies. This is quite normal for plasma displays and these effects will disappear after the set has been turned on for some time. A plasma display consists of more than

3.1 Million color pixels. It is within industry standards that very few pixels (<

0.001%) may be defective, even for a new set.There is however no reason to doubt about the quality of the set. The plasma display technology operates with rare gases which are being influenced by air pressure.

Up to an altitude of 6562 ft above sealevel, the display is functioning fine. Operating the set at a higher altitude, the picture becomes unstable and the picture performance is deteriorating. After bringing the set below 6562 ft it works fine again.Transportation has no influence.

Control of peripheral equipment

The infrared radiation of the screen may influence the reception sensitivity of other peripherals. Solution: replace the batteries of the remote control or change position of other equipment. E.g. keep away a wireless headphone from within a radius of 4.92 ft.

No stable or not synchronized VGA picture

Check if you have selected the correct display mode in your PC. See p.4, Computer display modes.

No picture or no sound

Are the supplied cables connected properly? (The power cable to the display, the VGA cables, the audio cables,...) Is your PC switched on? Do you see a black screen and the indicator in front of the monitor lights up green, this means that the display mode is not supported. Switch your VGA source to a correct mode.

Remote control

If your monitor no longer responds to the remote control, the batteries may be exhausted.

If your problem is not solved:

Switch your monitor off and then on again.

Never attempt to repair a defective monitor yourself.

Check with your dealer or call a TV technician.

Transport

Keep the original packaging to transport the monitor if needed.
