welcome to Philips!
Read this user manual before you start to use
this product.
Pay close attention to this section and follow
the safety and screen care instructions. The
product warranty does not apply if damage is
caused by failing to follow these instructions.
To fully benefit from the support that Philips
offers, register your product at
www.philips.com/welcome.
The model and serial number of your TV can
be found on the back and side of the TV as well
as on the packaging.
Safety1.1
Two people are required to lift and carry •
a TV that weighs more than 25 kg (55lb).
Improper handling of the TV can result in
serious injury.
If transporting the TV in low temperatures •
(less than 5°C), open the box and wait until
the TV matches the ambient temperature
of the room before unpacking.
To avoid short circuit, do not expose the •
TV, remote control or remote control
batteries to rain or water.
Do not place vessels of water or other •
liquids on top of or near the TV. Spilling
liquids on the TV can cause electric shock.
If liquids are spilt on the TV, do not operate
the TV. Immediately disconnect the TV from
the mains and have the TV checked by a
qualified technician.
To avoid risk of fire or electric shock, do •
not place the TV, remote control or remote
control batteries near naked flame sources
(e.g. lighted candles) and other heat sources
including direct sunlight.
Do not install the TV in a confined space •
such as a bookcase. Leave a space of at
least 10cm (four inches) around the TV
for ventilation. Be sure air flow is not
obstructed.
If placing the TV on a flat, solid surface be •
sure to use only the supplied stand. Do not
move the TV if the stand is not properly
screwed to the TV.
Wall mounting of the TV should only be •
performed by qualified personnel. The TV
must only be mounted on an appropriate
wall bracket and on a wall that can safely
hold the weight of the TV. Improper wall
mounting can result in severe injury or
damage. Do not attempt to wall mount the
TV yourself.
If the TV is mounted on a swivel base or •
swivel arm, ensure no strain is placed on
the power cord when the TV is swivelled.
Strain on the power cord can loosen
connections and cause arcing or fire.
Disconnect the TV from the mains and •
antenna before lightning storms. During
lightning storms do not touch any part of
the TV, mains cord or antenna cable.
Be sure that you have full access to the •
mains cord for easy disconnection of the
TV from the mains.
When disconnecting the TV from the mains, •
be sure to:
Turn off the TV, then the mains power (if •
available).
EN
EN-3
Page 6
Unplug the mains cord from the mains •
socket outlet.
Unplug the mains cord from the power •
connector at the back of the TV.
Always pull the mains cord by the plug.
Do not pull the mains cord.
Permanent hearing loss may occur if you •
use earphones or headphones at high
volumes. Though high volume may sound
normal over time, it can damage your
hearing. To protect your hearing, limit the
amount of time you use earphones or
headphones at high volume.
Where possible, avoid stationary images •
that remain on-screen for extended periods
of time. Examples include screen menus,
teletext pages, black bars or stock market
tickers. If you must use stationary images,
reduce the screen contrast and brightness
to avoid screen damage.
Environmental care1.3

Screen care1.2
Turn off and unplug the mains cord before •
cleaning the screen. Clean the screen with a
soft, dry cloth. Do not use substances such
as household cleaning agents as these may
damage the screen.
To avoid deformations or colour fading, •
wipe off water droplets as soon as possible.
Do not touch, push, rub or strike the •
screen with hard objects as this may
damage the screen permanently.

Select connection quality7.2
This section describes how you can enhance
your audio visual experience by connecting
your devices with the best possible connectors.
After connecting your devices, be sure to
enable them as described in Section 7.4 Setup devices.
7.2.1 HDMI - Highest quality
HDMI produces the best audio visual quality
possible. Both audio and video signals are
combined in one HDMI cable, providing an
uncompressed, digital interface between your
TV and HDMI devices. You must use HDMI to
experience full high-definition video.
TipE
If your device only has a DVI connector,
use a DVI-HDMI adaptor to connect your
device to a HDMI connector on the TV. As
such a connection does not support sound,
you must connect a separate audio cable
from the device to the Audio L/R input at
the AUDIO IN connectors on the TV.
D Note
Philips HDMI supports HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital Contents Protection).
HDCP is a form of Digital Rights
Management that protects high defi nition
content in DVD or Blu-ray Discs.
supports high-definition signals, picture quality
is lower than HDMI and is analogue.
When connecting a component video
cable, match the cable colours to the CVI
connectors on the back of the TV. Also,
connect a Audio L/R cable to the white and red
Audio L/R input connectors at CVI.
Component video cable - Red, green, blue
Audio L/R cable - White and red
S-Video - Good quality 7.2.3
S-Video provides better picture quality than
composite video. When connecting your
device with S-Video, plug the S-Video cable to
the S-Video connector on the side of the TV.
You must connect a separate Audio L/R cable
from the device to the white and red Audio L/R
input connectors on the side of the TV.
7.2.2 Component (YPbPr) - Higher
quality
Component (Y Pb Pr) video provides better
picture quality than S-Video or composite
video connections. Though component video

Composite video provides basic analogue
connectivity, usually combining a (yellow) video

cinch cable. Match the cable colours when
connecting to the composite Video and Audio
L/R input connectors on the side of the TV.

Connect an aerial plug from the TV to the set
up box. Then connect the set up box to the
signal input cable from the cable provider.
Blu-ray Disc player7.3.2
For full high-definition video, connect a HDMI
cable to the Blu-ray Disc player or a HD game
