Caution
Wall mounting the TV requires special skills and should only be performed by qualified personnel. The TV wall mounting should meet safety standards according to the TV's weight. Also read the safety precautions before positioning the TV.
TP Vision Europe B.V. bears no responsibility for improper mounting or any mounting that results in accident or injury.
2.3
Tips on placement
-Position the TV where light does not shine directly on the screen.
-Position the TV up to 15 cm away from the wall.
-The ideal distance to watch TV is 3 times its diagonal screen size. When seated, your eyes should be level with the centre of the screen.
2.4
Power cable
-Insert the power cable into the POWER connector on the back of the TV.
-Make sure the power cable is securely inserted in the connector.
-Make sure that the power plug, in the wall socket, is accessible at all times.
4
- When you unplug the power cable, always pull the plug, never pull the cable.
For 22PFx4209

3.1
Tips on connections
Connectivity guide
Always connect a device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Also, use good quality cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and sound.
If you need help to connect several devices to the TV, you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The guide
offers information on how to connect and which cables to use.
Go to www.connectivityguide.philips.com
Antenna
If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the antenna and the Set-top box can send possible additional channels to the Recorder to record.
HDMI
HDMI CEC
An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD) or Full HD (FHD) TV signals. For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5 m.
6
EasyLink HDMI CEC
If your devices are connected with HDMI and have EasyLink, you can operate them with the TV remote control. EasyLink HDMI CEC must be switched On on the TV and the connected device.
DVI to HDMI
Use a DVI to HDMI adapter if your device only has a DVI connection. Use one of the HDMI connections and add an Audio L/R cable (mini-jack 3.5mm) to Audio In for sound, on the back of the TV.
Copy protection
DVI and HDMI cables support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Blu-ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Management).
HDMI ARC
HDMI 1 connection on the TV have HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel). If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS), also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to HDMI 1 on this TV. With the HDMI ARC connection, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.
In case you prefer to switch off ARC on the HDMI connections, press and select Setup and press OK. Select TV
settings > Sound > Advanced > HDMI 1 - ARC.
Scart
SCART is a good quality connection. The SCART connection can be used for CVBS and RGB video signals but cannot be used for High Definition (HD) TV signals. The SCART connection combines video and audio signals.
Use the SCART adapter cable to connect your device.
Audio Out - Optical
Audio Out - Optical is a high quality sound connection. This optical connection can carry 5.1 audio channels. If your device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS), has no HDMI ARC connection, you can use this connection with the Audio In - Optical connection on the HTS. The Audio Out - Optical connection sends the sound from the TV to the HTS.
You can set the type of the audio out signal to fit the audio capabilities of your Home Theatre System.
If the sound does not match the video on screen, you can adjust the audio to video synchronization.
3.2
