2 Important
Read and understand all instructions before you
use your TV. If damage is caused by failure to
follow instructions, the warranty does not apply.
Safety
Risk of electric shock or re!
• Never expose the TV to rain or water.
Never place liquid containers, such as
vases, near the TV. If liquids are spilt on or
into the TV, disconnect the TV from the
power outlet immediately. Contact Philips
Consumer Care to have the TV checked
before use.
• Never place the TV, remote control or
batteries near naked ames or other heat
sources, including direct sunlight.
To prevent the spread of re, keep candles
or other ames away from the TV, remote
control and batteries at all times.
• Never insert objects into the ventilation
slots or other openings on the TV.
• When the TV is swivelled ensure that no
strain is exerted on the power cord. Strain
on the power cord can loosen connections
and cause arcing.
• To disconnect the TV from the mains
power, the power plug of the TV must be
disconnected. When disconnecting the
power, always pull the power plug, never
the cord. Ensure that you have full access
to the power plug, power cord and outlet
socket at all times.
Risk of short circuit or re!
• Never expose the remote control or
batteries to rain, water or excessive heat.
• Avoid force coming onto power plugs.
Loose power plugs can cause arcing or re.
Risk of injury or damage to the TV!
• Two people are required to lift and carry a
TV that weighs more than 25 kg or 55 lbs.
• When stand mounting the TV, use only the
supplied stand. Secure the stand to the TV
tightly. Place the TV on a at, level surface
that can support the combined weight of
the TV and the stand.
• When wall mounting the TV, use only a
wall mount that can support the weight
of the TV. Secure the wall mount to a wall
that can support the combined weight of
the TV and wall mount. Koninklijke Philips
Electronics N.V. bears no responsibility
for improper wall mounting that result in
accident, injury or damage.
• If you need to store the TV, disassemble
the stand from the TV. Never lay the TV on
its back with the stand installed.
• Before you connect the TV to the power
outlet, ensure that the power voltage
matches the value printed on the back
of the TV. Never connect the TV to the
power outlet if the voltage is different.
• Parts of this product may be made of
glass. Handle with care to avoid injury and
damage.
Risk of injury to children!
Follow these precautions to prevent the
TV from toppling over and causing injury to
children:
• Never place the TV on a surface covered
by a cloth or other material that can be
pulled away.
• Ensure that no part of the TV hangs over
the edge of the surface.
• Never place the TV on tall furniture (such
as a bookcase) without anchoring both the
furniture and TV to the wall or a suitable
support.
• Educate children about the dangers of
climbing on furniture to reach the TV.

EN
Risk of swallowing batteries!
• The product/remote control may contain a
coin-type battery, which can be swallowed.
Keep the battery out of reach of children
at all times!
Risk of overheating!
• Never install the TV in a conned space.
Always leave a space of at least 4 inches
or 10 cm around the TV for ventilation.
Ensure curtains or other objects never
cover the ventilation slots on the TV.
Risk of injury, re or power cord damage!
• Never place the TV or any objects on the
power cord.

time.
Low temperatures
• If the TV is transported in temperatures
below 5°C or 41°F, unpack the TV and
wait until the TV temperature matches
room temperature before connecting the
TV to the power outlet.
Screen care
• Avoid stationary images as much as
possible. Stationary images are images that
remain on-screen for extended periods of
time. Examples include: on-screen menus,
black bars and time displays. If you must
use stationary images, reduce screen
contrast and brightness to avoid screen
damage.
• Unplug the TV before cleaning.
• Clean the TV and frame with a soft, damp
cloth. Never use substances such as
alcohol, chemicals or household cleaners
on the TV.
• Risk of damage to the TV screen! Never
touch, push, rub or strike the screen with
any object.
• To avoid deformations and colour fading,
wipe off water drops as soon as possible.
