R End of life directives

Philips is paying a lot of attention to producing environmentally-friendly in green focal areas. Your new TV contains materials which can be recycled and reused. At the end of its life specialized companies can dismantle the discarded TV to concentrate the reusable materials and to minimize the amount of materials to be disposed of. Please ensure you dispose of your old TV according to local regulations.

Care of the screen

See Tips, p. 44.

* CableCARD™ is a trademark of Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.

Do not insert the power plug in a wall socket or hang the TV to the wall before all connections are made.

& Place the TV on a solid surface or place the TV on the supplied stand.

For the mounting instructions of the stand, see the separate leaflet supplied. For ventilation, leave at least 4” to 6” free all around the TV. Do not place the TV on a carpet.To prevent any unsafe situations, no naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed in the vicinity. Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water. The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

Mounting the TV on the wall

This TV provides the VESA mounting interface (not supplied) and is VESA compatible with the 4 supplied VESA studs to be inserted in the back of the TV.

Caution: Installing the TV requires special skill that should only be

performed by qualified personnel.You should not attempt to do the work yourself. Philips bears no responsibility for improper mounting or mounting that results in accident or injury. Make sure that the wall mount is being fixed securely enough so that it meets safety standards.

Preparation

Your new TV is provided with a special slot called a CableCARD™ which means that you do not need a separate set top box to receive digital cable SDTV and HDTV programs. However it is still possible to connect a set top box to your TV. The CableCARD, which will be available from your cable system operator, is designed only for that particular digital cable TV system. If you need to get digital cable TV from a different system, simple swap your old CableCARD for a new one. Cable systems can provide a wide range of digital TV programs and even specialized digital audio channels. Cable TV systems can offer many local-interest channels you won’t see off-air or from a satellite broadcast. Examples include local school and community access channels.

CableCARD™ *

A CableCARD is a removable card distributed by cable companies, that is inserted into the CableCARD slot at the bottom of your television. CableCARD allows you to tune digital and high definition scrambled or encrypted cable channels through the cable antenna. Consult your cable company on the availability of CableCARD. The CableCARD is required to receive premium digital TV channels and services (where available) through the cable. A CableCARD functionality includes conditional access and copy protection. See settings menu, CableCARD applications, p. 18.

Note: Do not insert a PCMCIA card into the CableCARD slot.

Digital Cable TV

Cable CARD INTERFACE 1394

Watching Cable TV programs that don’t require the cable box

Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal directly to the TV’s tuner, you can also watch the unscrambled programs by simply tuning to the desired channel.You must first use Autoprogram, however, to store channels in the TV’s memory. See page 10.

Note:This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are watching.

é Basic connections to the TV

Your integrated digital TV automatically decodes and displays the four basic DTV picture resolution standards.

- SDTV (Standard Definition TV) are broadcast as 480i (480-line interlaced) or 480p (480-line progressive scan) video.

- HDTV (High-Definition TV) are broadcast either in the 1080i or 720p formats, always with a widescreen picture.

Note: Progressive scan video (p) is more like that you see in a movie theater. Images are much more distinct and free of flicker, and motion is smoother.

Next to analog NTSC broadcast reception, your TV has an integrated High Definition TV tuner which receives, decodes and displays terrestrial ATSC and unscrambled cable (QAM) signals. HDTV quality is only reproduced when a broadcaster or cable provider broadcasts HDTV signals.

Note: Ask your broadcaster or cable box provider to transmit/enable HD content to your home, and possibly upgrade to a CableCard for the decription of HD signals.

There are 2 ways to get HDTV content:

- via cable,

- via antenna.

Note:This drawing is used wherever you can connect cable or antenna.

- Cable TV

Connect the cable TV signal to the

CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x jack at

the bottom of the TV. See page 10 for details on using Autoprogram to store channels in the TV’s memory.

Note: this connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are watching.

- Cable box with

RF IN/OUT

• Connect the incoming cable TV signal to the cable IN jack 1 on the

back of the cable box.

• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) from the

TO TV jack on the

back of the cable box to the

CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x jack 2 at

the bottom of the TV.

Note:Your cable box may have a different label for the

TO TV jack, such as

OUTPUT or OUT.

• Set the

OUTPUT CH switch 3 of the cable box to CH 3 or 4

(whichever is correct for your cable box), then tune the TV to the corresponding channel. Once tuned, change channels at the cable box, not the TV.

Note:This connection will not supply stereo sound to the TV.The reason is that the RF output on a cable box - labeled

TO TV , OUT or OUTPUT for example -

will not send a stereo signal to the tuner (VHF/UHF) input on a TV.

- Cable box with A/V outputs

• Connect the incoming cable TV signal 1 to a signal splitter (not

supplied).The signal splitter enables you to avoid having to use the TO TV jack on the back of the cable box.This jack will not supply stereo sound to the TV.

Note:Your cable box may have a different label for the

TO TV jack, such as

OUTPUT or OUT.

• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal

splitter and to the

CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x jack 2 on the TV.

• Connect another coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the

signal splitter and to the cable

IN jack 3 on the back of the cable

box.

• Connect A/V cables (not supplied) to the

VIDEO and AUDIO L and R

outputs on the back of the cable box and to the AV2 video (labeled

VIDEO) and AUDIO (labeled L and R) jacks 4 on the back of the TV.

•To view programs from your cable box, first press the AV+ button on

the remote control.

•Press the cursor down or up buttons until the

AV2 signal source is

selected.

•Press the

OK button to confirm your selection. The AV 2 input source

becomes current for the viewing of cable TV programs through your cable box.

Note: If your cable box Audio/Video outputs will not supply video and stereo audio to the TV, you will need to make the connection shown above in the example “Cable box with

RF IN/OUT”.

First time installation

Note: The first time (and only the first time) you turn on your set you see an installation introduction screen. The Installation procedure consists of a series of screens that guide you through the process.

& After an introduction screen, you are asked to select a language of the TV’s on-screen-menus. (The text of the header and the info on screen

continuously change language.)

é Press the cursor up/down to highlight your language. “ Press the OK button. ‘ Follow the on-screen instructions to proceed.

Note: Once you completed the initial installation procedure you can access the screens from the Settings menu. See p. 10.

ANTENNACABLE /

CABLE

- Cable box with S-Video, component video (YPbPr) or HDMI connectors

See Connect Accessory Devices, p. 32-33.

- Antenna

Via antenna you can watch whatever DTV programs being broadcast in your area for free. If you’re not sure what HDTV programming is available in your area, contact your local content provider or your local electronics store retailer. Broadcasters are in the middle of a transition from analog to digital TV. This means that a given broadcaster will have two channels on the air, one analog and one digital.

Connect the incoming antenna signal to the

CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x

jack at the bottom of the TV. See page 10 for details on using Autoprogram to store channels in the TV’s memory.

Note:This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are watching.

- Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS)

Satellite systems offer many of the same premium channels as cable systems, and often at a lower price.To get these channels, you’ll need to install a small dish antenna outside. There are 2 main DBS systems: DirecTV & DishNetwork.These systems require separate, proprietary set top receiver boxes to decode their signals and send them to your digital TV set.These boxes may include a digital TV tuner for off-air DTV broadcasts. Satellite broadcasters also provide major local channels, depending on the market in which you live. DBS also provides service in areas not covered by cable because they are in rural areas or other areas not passed by a cable line. DBS also allows you to watch pay-per-view events.

“ Before installing your TV or before hanging it on the wall, first connect your

accessory devices, see p. 29.

‘ Refer to the bottom of the set for the correct operation voltage. Insert the

power cord in the wall socket. Consult your local dealer if your mains supply is different. To prevent damaging the mains (AC) cord which could cause a fire or electric shock, do not place the TV on the cord.

( Remote control:

Plasma display characteristics

This Plasma display is designed to be used at altitudes up to 6562 ft above sea level (and/or local air pressure equal or above 800 hPa). Operating this set at higher altitude (lower air pressure) is possible. However, at high altitudes (or local air pressure equal or below 800 hPa) the picture on this display may become unstable and picture performance can deteriorate. In addition, the plasma display may produce a humming sound in these conditions. These possible adverse effects relate to the altitude and are common of all plasma displays. Once the set is brought below aprox 6562 ft (and/or local air pressure equal or above 800 hPa) its function will most likely return to normal. Note:Transportation at high altitudes has no negative effect on the set or picture performance.

Warning concerning stationary images on the TV screen (only for PDP Displays)

A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels is that displaying the same image for a long time can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen.This is called phosphor burn in. Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen.

Examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list, you may encounter others in your viewing):

•

TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD disk content;

• Black bars: when black bars appear at the left and right side of the screen, it is recommended to change to a picture format so that the picture fills the entire screen;

•

PIP and Multipip: do not view for long periods of time using the PIP function or Multipip function;

• TV channel logo:present a problem if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the screen;

•

Stock market stickers:presented at the bottom of the TV screen;

• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays: bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen. Examples of still pictures also include logos, computer images, time display, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or characters, etc.

Notes:

- reduce contrast and brightness when viewing

- once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.

Introduction

This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio. Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users. To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV.

& Press the = button on the remote control after having inserted a memory card or USB device and switched on the

TV.

é Go to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory. “ Select the slideshow file and press the OK button to start the slide show. ‘ To stop a slide show, press the ‡ button.

General Rules

• The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow files using simple tools.

• All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content.

• Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesn't have a global address; as a result content from a PM can never be referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself.

•To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same PM. Referencing global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a non-networked CE device. The latter is however not forbidden, it is only a recommendation.

• It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the directory where the slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM. An absolute path to content will also be supported.

-relative path: pictures\test1.jpg, tamper.jpg, ..\new\bird.jpg, …

- absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg, C:\f1.jpg, \organization.jpg, …

General Format

The format and syntax below will be used to create the slideshow file (simple ascii text) with the extension .alb (.ALB) Examples: slshow1.alb, summer_holiday_2004.ALB, test.alb, … The following syntax should be used to create the text file:

Digital Camera Issues

If a USB connection between your digital camera and the TV isn’t working, you can try the solutions below to resolve your problem.

• Make sure your digital camera is switched on and verify if the configuration of your digital camera is correct (see the

manual of your digital camera for more information).

• Some digital cameras allow you to switch off the USB interface. Make sure that the USB interface is switched on before

connecting to the TV.

• Remove the memory card from your digital camera and insert it directly into the digital media reader on the right side of

your TV.

to a memory card or a USB memory device (e.g. Philips

KEY product) using a personal computer.

• Some digital cameras allow you to switch between PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) or “PC Link” and USB Mass Storage or

“PC Drive”. Make sure that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC Drive” on your digital camera.

• If your camera supports different interface settings be sure to try them one by one or contact the reseller of your camera

to find out the correct setting.
