2011 © Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. All
rights reserved.

Specications are subject to change without

notice. Trademarks are the property of
Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V or their
respective owners. Philips reserves the right
to change products at any time without being
obliged to adjust earlier supplies accordingly.
The material in this manual is believed
adequate for the intended use of the system.
If the product, or its individual modules or
procedures, are used for purposes other than

those specied herein, conrmation of their

validity and suitability must be obtained. Philips
warrants that the material itself does not
infringe any United States patents. No further
warranty is expressed or implied.

Terms of warranty

• Risk of injury, damage to TV or void of
warranty! Never attempt to repair the TV
yourself.

• Use the TV and accessories only as
intended by the manufacturer.

• The caution sign printed on the back of
the TV indicates risk of electric shock.
Never remove the TV cover. Always
contact Philips Customer Support for
service or repairs.

• Any operation expressly prohibited in
this manual, or any adjustments and
assembly procedures not recommended
or authorised in this manual shall void the
warranty.

Pixel characteristics

This LCD product has a high number of
colour pixels. Although it has effective pixels of

99.999% or more, black dots or bright points of
light (red, green or blue) may appear constantly
on the screen. This is a structural property of
the display (within common industry standards)
and is not a malfunction.

Compliance with EMF

Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. manufactures
and sells many products targeted at consumers
which, like any electronic apparatus, in
general have the ability to emit and receive
electromagnetic 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 Electro Magnetic Field (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 conrms that if its products are

handled properly for their intended use, they

are safe to use according to scientic 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.

Mains fuse (UK only)

This TV is tted with an approved moulded

plug. Should it become necessary to replace
the mains fuse, this must be replaced with a
fuse of the same value as indicated on the plug
(example 10A).

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2 The replacement fuse must comply with

BS 1362 and have the ASTA approval
mark. If the fuse is lost, contact your dealer
in order to verify the correct type.

3 Ret the fuse cover.

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.

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!

4

EN

Risk of overheating!

• Never install the TV in a conned 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.

• Disconnect the TV from the power outlet
and antenna before lightning storms.
During lightning storms, never touch any
part of the TV, power cord or antenna
cable.

Risk of hearing damage!

• Avoid using earphones or headphones at
high volumes or for prolonged periods of
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.

Temperature and humidity

On rare occasions, depending on temperature
and humidity, minor condensation can occur on
the inside of the glass front. To prevent this, do
not expose the TV to direct sunlight, heat or
extreme humidity. If condensation occurs, it will
disappear spontaneously after the TV has played
for a few hours. The condensation moisture will
not harm the TV or cause malfunction.

Disposal of your old product and batteries

Your product is designed and manufactured
with high quality materials and components,
which can be recycled and reused.
