See the User Manual for Important Maintenance Information

In addition to providing information about safety, connecting accessory devices, and using the TV’s features, the Directions for Use manual explains how to care for and maintain your Cineos television. The TV contains air filters that must be maintained and eventually replaced, and a lamp that eventually will need to be replaced.

Air Filters

The air filters (located at the bottom of the TV) must be kept clean and free of blockage.

NOTE: DO NOT operate the TV without the filters. Damage to the TV will occur. Allow four to six inches of space behind the TV for air flow through the back slots.

IMPORTANT: Excessive heat inside the TV resulting from inadequate ventilation will cause the TV to shut down or not

to operate.

21/04

Lamp

An on-screen message will alert you when the lamp is nearing the end of its expected lifetime so that you can change it before it wears out.

IMPORTANT: The TV will not operate if the lamp door is left open, and the TV will shut down if the door is opened during operation.

Picture Settings

Your TV was set up at the factory for optimal showroom viewing. For optimal home viewing change the Auto Picture setting to Natural. See page 34 in the

Direction for Use Manual.

Positioning the TV

Before connecting accessory devices—VCR, DVD player, or HD receiver, for example—please keep the following in mind:

•Place the TV on a flat surface. An unlevel surface may adversely affect picture performance.

•Do not place the TV on shag carpet or any surface that will block the air inlets at the bottom of the set. Blockage will cause the TV to overheat and shut down.

•Allow 4 to 6 inches of space behind the TV for ventilation.

•To purchase an optional swivel and/or stand to go with your Philips Cineos TV, see the electronics dealer where you bought your TV.

•Test various locations in the room to find the optimal spot to locate the set for best viewing.

•Do not place the TV in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.

•Do not expose the TV to rain or moisture.

•To prevent any unsafe situations, do not place objects on top of the TV.

For safety, do not set objects on top of the TV.

Place the TV on a flat surface.

Situate the TV where it will not be exposed to heat or moisture.

Allow 4 to 6 inches behind the TV for ventilation.

Do not place the TV on a surface that will block the air filters located underneath the set.

Mounting the Swivel to the TV

Following are instructions for mounting the optional swivel.

NOTE: Attach the swivel before hooking up the TV.

1 Remove the foam cushion polybag from around your TV and place it on the floor.

2 NOTE: At least two people are required to perform this task.

Carefully lay the TV back flat on the foam cushion polybag with the screen up.

3 Use screws to fasten rubber bumpers to the swivel as shown. Guide the two rubber bumpers on the swivel into the corresponding holes on the bottom of the TV.

4 Use the supplied screws (4) to fasten the swivel to the TV. Tighten the screws until hand tight. Do not overtighten.

5 Be sure the swivel is in center position.

6 Place the TV and mounted swivel upright on a level surface, preferably a TV stand. An unlevel surface may adversely affect picture performance. Once you have positioned TV on a TV stand or other surface, remove the wooden 0-Degree Holder by pulling it to the left, then toward the front of the TV. The swivel will not turn until it is removed.

	ing pins and align the pre-drilled holes on the stand and	Pins
	swivel. You do not need the rubber bumpers and long
	screws if you have already attached the swivel to the TV.
	Use the supplied screws (2) and screw key to fasten the swivel to
	the stand. Install the back cover by sliding it up into the groove
	3 above the opening, then slide into the lower groove.
	Note: If accessories and cables protrude from the stand, leave the
	back cover off.
	Place accessory devices—HD satellite receiver, cable box, DVD
	player, or VCR, for example—inside the stand. (See below and
	4 Directions for Use manual for connection information.) Route the
	power cords through the opening in the bottom of the stand shelf,
	and route the connection cables through the openings in the back of
	the stand.
	Before swiveling the TV, make sure you have left enough slack in
	the cords of any connected accessory devices. This will prevent
	5 damage to the cords.

Placing the TV on the Stand without the Swivel

If you should decide not to purchase the optional swivel, you can place the TV directly on the stand.

•First locate the nut and washer for each supplied rubber locator

(2).

•Place the rubber locators over the pre-drilled holes in the stand.

•Place the washer and nut on each rubber locator.

•Tighten each nut.

•Place the TV and mounted swivel on the stand, aligning the front and sides of the TV with the front and sides of the stand. This will help properly seat the TV. The rubber locators will prevent the TV from sliding.
