1 About this User Manual

This manual contains all information you will
need to initially install and operate your new TV.
Also read the help text which are being
displayed at the bottom of the screen.

If this instruction manual does not give an

answer or if ‘Troubleshooting’ does not
solve your TV problem, you can call your Local
Philips Customer or Service Centre. See the
supplied Worldwide guarantee booklet.
Please have the Model and Product number
(which you can find at the back or the bottom
of your television set or on the packaging)
ready, before calling the Philips customer
support service.

Model: ...........................................

Product No: .................................

1.1 Digital BroadcastingBroadcasting

Next to analogue broadcast reception, your TV
has a built-in TV tuner which receives, decodes
and displays digital terrestrial signals.

1.2 Analogue Broadcasting

When your area is not broadcasting digital
terrestrial signals, the TV will only receive
analogue channels.

When on a frequency where a DVB signal is
broadcasted, the tuner will try to decode an
analogue TV channel and hence will not show
video.

Digital TV and radio channels are only available
and reproduced:

• when Digital Video Broadcasting Terrestrial

(DVB-T) is applicable in your local area;

• and if DVB-T signal is supported by your TV

for the country you live in. See

www.philips.com/support for the list of

supported countries.

2 Important

2.1 General
Do not insert the power plug in a wall
socket or hang the TV to the wall before
all connections are made.

• Place or hang the TV wherever you want, but

make sure that air can circulate freely through
the ventilation slots.

• Do not install the TV in a confined space such

as a book case or a similar unit.

• To prevent any fire hazards, no naked flame

sources, such as lighted candles, should be
placed near the TV.

• Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to

rain or water.

2.2 Care of the screen

• Do not touch, push or rub or strike the

screen with anything hard as this may scratch
or damage the screen permanently.

• Do not touch the surface with bare hands or

greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental
to the screen).

• Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen.

• When the surface becomes dusty wipe gentlyWhen the surface becomes dusty wipe gently

with absorbent cotton or other soft material
like chamois soaks.

• Do not remove the protective sheet until youDo not remove the protective sheet until you

have completed the stand/wall mounting and
connections. Please handle with care.

• Use only soft cloth provided to clean theUse only soft cloth provided to clean the

glossy black front of the TV.

• Wipe off water droplets as soon as possible.

Their long time contact with the screen
causes deformations and colour fading.

2.3 Stationary images on the TV

A characteristic of LCD and Plasma Panels is
that displaying the same image for a long time
can cause a permanent after-image to remain
on the screen. This is called phosphor burn
in. Normal use of the TV should involve the
showing of pictures that contain constantly
moving and changing images that fill the screen.
Examples of stationary images (this is not an

all-inclusive list, you may encounter others in
your viewing):

• TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD disk content;

• Black bars: when black bars appear at
the left and right side of the screen, it is
recommended to change to a picture format
so that the picture fills the entire screen;

• TV channel logo: present a problem if they are
bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast
graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging
of the screen;

• Stock market stickers: presented at the
bottom of the TV screen;

• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays:
bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in
the same location on the TV screen.

Examples of still pictures also include logos,

computer images, time display, teletext and
images displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or
characters, etc.

Tip

Reduce contrast and brightness when viewing.

2.4 Electric, Magnetic and

Electromagnetic Fields (“EMF”)

• Philips Royal Electronics manufactures and

sells many products targeted at consumers,
which, like any electronic apparatus, in
general have the ability to emit and receive
electro magnetic signals.

• One of Philips’ leading Business Principles is to

take all necessary health and safety measures
for our products, to comply with all applicable
legal requirements and to stay well within
the EMF standards applicable at the time of
producing the products.

• Philips is committed to develop, produce and

market products that cause no adverse health
effects.

• Philips confirms that if its products are handled

properly for their intended use, they are safe
to use according to scientific evidence available
today.

• Philips plays an active role in the development

of international EMF and safety standards,
enabling Philips to anticipate further
developments in standardisation for early

integration in its products.

3 Before you start

Warning

Do not insert the mains cord into the mains at
the bottom of the TV and in a wall socket or
hang the TV on the wall before all connections
are made.

Before you switch on your TV, connect all your
peripheral equipment. See 'To make video and
audio connections', p. 43.

3.1 Overview of the rear connector panel

There is a wide range of audio and video
equipment that can be connected to your TV.
See 'To make video and audio connections', p. 43.

EXT1 can handle CVBS, RGB and Audio L/R;
EXT2 can handle CVBS, S-VIDEO, RGB and

Audio L/R;

EXT3 can handle YPbPr, RGB H/V and Audio L/R;
HDMI 1 and 2.
Supported video formats: 480i, 480p, 576i,

576p, 720p, 1080i.

Warning

Disconnect all power sources before making any
connections.

Tip

It is preferable to connect peripherals with RGB
output to EXT1 or EXT2 as RGB provides a
better picture quality.

3.2 Common Interface Slot

Warning

Switch off your TV before any module is
inserted in the Common Interface slot.

Note

This functionality is only available in certain
countries.

To receive scrambled DTV signals you will need
a CA (Conditional Access) module and a Smart
card provided by the service provider.

• A CA module can enable additional services,

for example Pay TV.
Contact your Common Interface service
provider to get more information about these
modules.

• Although CA module types may vary

dependent on the manufacturer, each one of
the CA modules supports a certain kind of
encryption system.
Your TV supports CA modules to work with
the DVB-T standard.
Note that a smart card may only be valid for a
single broadcast channel.

• CA modules and smart cards are neither

supplied nor optional accessories from Philips.
The CA module is responsible for the
messages and texts on screen. In case of
failure or strange behaviour, you must call
your CI service broadcaster.

Insert a CA module

1

Insert the specified Conditional Access

module into the Common Interface slot as
far as it will go. It may take a few minutes
before the CA module is activated and
service information is downloaded.

3.4 Keys at the side of the TV

In case your remote control is lost or broken,
apart from channel selection and volume
adjustment, you can still change some of the
basic settings with the keys at the side of your
TV.

Warning

When you connect the CA module incorrectly,
it may damage the card and the TV. After
inserting a card, leave it in the slot permanently.
Do not remove it from the slot unless asked to
do so. For example, your card has to be in the
slot when your CI service broadcaster wants to
download new information to the smart card.
Once the CA module is removed, your TV
will no longer decode scrambled digital DVB-T
channels.

To access common interface applications,
see TV menu, Adjust feature menu settings,
Common Interface, p. 24.

3.3 Overview of the side connector
panel

• To connect a camera, camcorder or game,

see To make video and audio connections,

p. 43.

• To connect a headphone, see To make video

and audio connections, p. 43.

• To connect a USB device, see 'Multimedia

browser', p. 37.

• Press the power switch B to switch the TV

on or off.

The MENU key can be used to call up the TV

menu without the remote control.

• Use:

- the VOLUME - and + keys and the
PROGRAM - and + keys to select menu

items;

- the MENU key to confirm your selection.

3.5 Light indicator on the TV
