TV Stand

You can find the instructions for mounting the TV stand in the Quick Start Guide that came with the TV. In case you lost this guide, you can download it from www.philips.com.

Use the product type number of the TV to look for the

Start Guide

to download.

Wall Mounting

Your TV is also prepared for a VESA-compliant wall mount bracket (sold separately). Use the following VESA code when purchasing the wall mount . . .

Quick

• 55PUS8909C

VESA MIS-F 400x400, M6

Preparation

First remove the 4 plastic screw caps out of the threaded bushes on the back of the TV.

You can use the 4 black and ribbed spacers if you need to bridge the curve between the screwholes to fix the wall mount bracket. A quarter turn is enough to fix the spacers.

Make sure that the metal screws, to mount the TV to the VESAcompliant bracket, go about 10mm deep inside the threaded bushes of the TV.

Caution

Wall mounting the TV requires special skills and should only be performed by qualified personnel. The TV wall mounting should meet safety standards according to the TVs weight. Also read the safety precautions before positioning the TV. TP Vision Europe B.V. bears no responsibility for improper mounting or any mounting that results in accident or injury.

2.3

Tips on Placement

• Position the TV where light does not shine directly on the screen.

• Dim lighting conditions in the room for best Ambilight effect.

• Position the TV up to 15 cm away from the wall.

• The ideal distance to watch TV is 3 times its diagonal screen size. When seated, your eyes should be level with the centre of the screen.

2.4

Power Cable

• Insert the power cable into the back of the TV.

• Make sure the power cable is securely inserted in the connector.

• Make sure that the power plug, in the wall socket, is accessible at all times.

• When you unplug the power cable, always pull the plug, never pull the cable.

Tips on Connections

Connectivity Guide

Always connect a device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Also, use good quality cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and sound.

When you connect a device, the TV recognizes its type and gives each device a correct type name. You can change the type name if you wish. If a correct type name for a device is set, the TV automatically switches to the ideal TV settings when you switch to this device in the Sources menu.

If you need help to connect several devices to the TV, you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The guide offers information on how to connect and which cables to use.

Go to

www.connectivityguide.philips.com

Antenna

If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the antenna and the Set-top box can send possible additional channels to the Recorder to record.

Use a DVI to HDMI adapter if your device only has a DVI connection. Use one of the HDMI connections and add an Audio L/R cable (mini-jack 3.5mm) to Audio In for sound, on the back of the TV.

Copy protection

DVI and HDMI cables support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Blu-ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Management).

HDMI ARC

All of the HDMI connections on the TV have (Audio Return Channel).

HDMI

HDMI CEC

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD) or Ultra HD (UHD) TV signals. For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5 m.

If the device, typically a Home Theatre Sysytem (HTS), also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to any of the HDMI connections on this TV. With the HDMI ARC connection, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.

You can use any HDMI connection on this TV to connect the HTS but ARC is only available for 1 device/connection at a time.

You can watch videos filmed or made in 'native' Ultra HD resolution - 3840x2160 pixels - on this TV.

CI+ CAM with Smart Card

CI+

This TV is ready for the CI+ Conditional Access. With CI+ you can watch premium HD programmes, like movies

and sports, offered by digital TV operators in your region. These programmes are scrambled by the TV operator and descrambled with a prepaid CI+ module. Digital TV operators provide a CI+ module (Conditional Access Module - CAM) and an accompanying smart card, when you subscribe to their premium programmes. These programmes have a high level of copy protection.

Contact a digital TV operator for more information on terms & conditions.

If the key you need is not on the TV remote control, you can select the key in the Options menu. Press  the screen, select the device key you need and press OK. Some very specific device keys might not be available in the Controls menu.

3 - Push the CAM in as far as it will go. Leave it in the slot permanently.

When you switch on the TV, it may take a few minutes before the CAM is activated. If a CAM is inserted and subscription fees are paid (subscription methods can differ), you can watch the

scrambled channels supported by the CAM smart card. The CAM and smart card are exclusively for your TV. If you

remove the CAM, you will no longer be able to watch the scrambled channels supported by the CAM.

Two Smart Cards

Some Digital TV operators can provide a second CI+ module (CAM) and smart card. A second CAM and smart card is needed when you want to watch one channel while recording another channel from the same TV operator.

If you can watch the same amount of channels with each card, both cards have identical viewing rights. If you can watch less channels with one of the cards, the cards have non-identical viewing rights.

If your smart cards have identical viewing rights, it does not matter which card you put in which slot. If one of the cards has more viewing rights than the other one, insert the card with the most viewing rights in the slot the card with less rights in

The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals. All HDMI connections on the TV can offer the Audio Return Channel (ARC) signal. But once you have connected the Home Theatre System, the TV can only send the ARC signal to this HDMI connection.
