9 Troubleshooting

TV channel issues

This section describes commonly encountered
issues and accompanying solutions.

General TV issues

The TV does not switch on:

Unplug the power cord from the power •
outlet. Wait for one minute and plug it in
again.
Verify that the power cord is properly •
connected and that the power outlet is
properly powered.

The remote control is not working properly:

Verify that the remote control batteries •
are correctly inserted according to the
+/- orientation.
Replace the remote control batteries if •
they are fl at or weak.
Clean the remote control and TV sensor •
lens.

The standby light on the TV blinks red:

Turn off the TV and unplug the power •
cord. Wait until the TV cools down before
reinserting the power cord and turning on
the TV. If the blinking occurs again, contact
Philips Customer Support.

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 and warms up. This does not
impact performance.

Verify that the correct list is selected. •
The channel may have been uninstalled •
to the [Rearrange] menu. To access the
menu, press MENU on the remote control
and select [TV menu] > [Installation] >
[Channel installation] > [Rearrange] .

No digital channels were found during the
installation:

Verify if the TV supports DVB-T in your •
country. See the listed countries on the

the reception quality by changing the aerial
direction or moving devices away from the
TV.
Verify if the correct TV system is selected •
for your region.
If reception on only one channel is poor, •
try to fi ne-tune this channel.
