NOTE: This owner's manual is
used with several different television models. Not all features (and drawings) discussed in this manual will
necessarily match those found
with your television set. This is
normal and does not require you
contacting your dealer or
requesting service.

Information for usors in the UK

(Noc applicable outside the UK)
Positioning the TV
For the best results, choose a position where iight does not fall directly on the screen, and at some distance away from radiators or other sources of heat Leave a space of at ieast S cm all around the TV for ventilation, making sure that curtains, cupboards etc.
cannot obstruct the air flow through the ventilation apertures. The TV is intended for use in a domestic environment oniy and should never be operated or stored in excessively hot or humid atmospheres.
General Points
Please take note of the section 'General Information’ at the end of the English section in this booklet.
Interference The Department of Trade and Industry operates a Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV license holders improve
reception of BBC and IBA programmes where they are being spoilt by interference. If your dealer cannot help, ask at a main Post Office for the booklet "How to improve Television and Radio Reception".
Mains connection
Before connecting the TV to the mains, check that the mains suppiy voltage corresponds to the voltage printed on the type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If the mains voltage is different, consult your dealer.
Important This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows :
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.TA or BSI approved type.
In order to maintain conformity to the EMC directive, the mains piug on this product must not be removed.
Connecting the aerial The aerial should be connected to the socket marked “P at the back of the set. An inferior aerial is likely to result in a poor,
perhaps unstabie picture with ghost images and iack of contrast Make-shift loft or set-top aerials are often inadequate. Your dealer will know from experience the most suitable type for your locality. Should you wish to use the set in conjunction with other equipment which connects to the aerial socket such as TV games, or a video camera, it is recommended that these be connected via a combiner unit to avoid repeated connection and disconnection of the aerial plug.
Loop aerial (if provided)
The loop aerial packed with the set wili give satisfactory reception under good signal conditions. Fit the aerial bracket and lead by pushing the peg into the square hole in the backcover until it iatches in piace. Then insert the plug on the lead into the aerial socket

Setting up the remote control and TV

Setting up the remote control

Remove the battery cover at the back of
your remote control.
Note:
• Remove the batteries from the remote control if you do not use it for an extended
period. This is to prevent possible damage due to battery leakage.
• Make sure that there is no obstruction between the remote control and the
television.
Do not use old and new batteries together.
Insert two batteries {Type AAA, 1.5 V) into the compartment.
Replace the cover.

Setting up the TV

Press the power knob © button on the front, bottom left of your television. A green or red indicator light appears.
MAIN POWER
If the indicator light is GREEN, it means: Your television is switched ON. Wait a few seconds for the screen to light up. If no signal input is detected, you will see a blue screen with the word "PHILIPS."
If the indicator light is RED, it means: Your television is switched on but the screen stays dark. Your television is on 'standby.'
• Press any digit button, CH + or — button, A/CH button or VIDEO
button on your remote control.
The screen lights up. If no signal input is detected, you will see a blue screen with the word "PHILIPS."
Note : If there is no signal detected after about 10 minutes, your television will switch over to standby.

Before Calling Service

Caution:
Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for an extended period of
time. Stationary patterns generated by the PIP display, computer displays, teletext, etc., can become permanently ingrained on the picture tube. This
damage is not protected by your warranty as it is a result of misuse. If you need
to display still images, it is always advisable to reduce the brightness and
contrast settings or alternate with normal TV viewing.
Please make these simple checks before calling service. These tips can save you time and money since charges for TV installation and adjustments of customer controls are not covered under your warranty.
Symptoms
'Ghosts' or double
images or teletext garbled
No Power
No picture

Items to Check and Actions to follow
This may be caused by obstruction to the antenna due to
high rise buildings or hills. Using a highly directional
antenna may improve the picture.
• Check that the TV's AC power cord is plugged into mains
socket.
• Unplug the TV, wait for 60 seconds. Then re-insert plug
into the mains socket and switch on the TV again.
• Check antenna connections at the rear of the TV to see if
they are properly connected to the TV input terminal.
• Possible TV station trouble. Try another channel.
• Adjust the contrast and brightness settings
• Increase the VOLUME.
• To check that the TV is not muted, press the iQC button
on the remote control.
• When no TV signal is detected, the TV automatically
mutes the sound.
This is a proper set operation and does not indicate a
malfunction.
• Check that you have selected a suitable sound system in
"Manual Installation" for this channel.
• Adjust the contrast and brightness setting.
Snowish picture and noise

One white line across the screen
• Check the antenna connection.
This may be caused by electrical interference (e.g. hairdryer, nearby neon lights, etc.).

No On-Screen­Display
Items to Check and Actions to follow
• Check batteries and replace them if necessary.

Clean with the "Enhanced Screen Cleaning Kit"

Your projection TV’s screen is made up of thousands
of vertical ridges that help enhance and define the
colour TV images. These ridges can collect airborne
dust which will reduce the clarity and brightness of
your TV picture. To clean your TV screen effectively,
it is recommended that you purchase an "Enhanced Screen Cleaning Kit" (with anti-static cleaner and magnetic cleaning cloth) from your dealer.
How to use the cleaning kit:
The magnetic cleaning cloth works well alone to
remove dust from your screen. If the screen is very dirty from smudges and residue, then the screen cleaning fluid should be used.
Note: Do not spray the fluid directly onto the screen.
Apply directly to the magnetic cloth and wipe onto
the screen's vertical ridges with a top-to-bottom
downward motion stroke.
