FEATURES

Yo ur new projection television and its packaging contain materials
that can be recycled and reused. Specialized companies can recy­cle your product to increase the amount of reusable materials and
minimize the amounts that need to be properly disposed. The bat­teries used by your product should not be thrown away when
depleted but should be handed in and disposed of as small chemi­cal waste. Please find out about the local regulations concerning
how to dispose of your old television, batteries, and packaging

End-of-life Disposal

Philips HD Optics gives extreme resolution HD with cutting-edge

processing and display technology. Includes a Philips wideband
video amplifier, microphosphor CRTs, hybrid projection lenses,
first-surface mirror, and fine-pitched lenticular screen.

Auto IntelliSense™ Focus automatically adjusts picture conver-

gence at the push of a button. After reviewing a special test pat­tern, optical sensors send position information to the controller,
which then corrects the pictures. Auto IntelliSense™ Focus
responds to the natural and man-made magnetic field conditions
where the TV is located, so you will always enjoy the best possible
picture.

Automatic Phosphor Aging Compensation (APAC) works with

the set’s Automatic Format feature to prevent screen burn left by
nonmoving images. Periodically, APAC automatically shifts your
television picture in very small increments, but in increments large
enough to blur image retention. APAC is like a screen saver for
your TV.

Active Control™ continuously measures and corrects all incoming

signals to provide the best picture settings. This feature provides a
sharp and virtually noise-free picture any time, from any NTSC
source. NTSC is the

National Television Standards Committee for­mat devised in the 1940s for TV broadcast analog video signals
(525 lines: 30 Hz).

Eye Fidelity gives you a choice between two different picture-

scanning techniques—progressive and interlaced. Progressive scan
doubles the number of visible picture lines per field by displaying
all picture frame lines at once, eliminating line flicker. The inter­laced mode provides for a double vertical display (interlaced) of
progressive scan, which reduces annoying motion artifacts. The
Interlaced mode also helps smooth out jagged lines sometimes
seen on curved and angled surfaces.

Protective screen filter helps prevent accidental damage to the

delicate front lenticular screen. This filter has been specifically for­mulated by Philips for HD displays to give the best possible pic­ture and still protect your investment.

HD DVI and Component Inputs—DVI supports High-definition

Copy Protected digital video input for connection to compliant set­top boxes. The HD component connection (Y Pb Pr or RGB +HV0
offers color purity, crisp color detail, and reduced color noise.

3-D Y/C Digital Comb Filter (activated when using the tuner and

composite inputs) processes the video with spatial and temporal
filtering, virtually eliminating cross-color and cross-luminance
interference, improving video resolution. This filter uses extensive
memory to analyze complete video fields, significantly reducing
“dot crawl,” “hanging dots,” and “barber pole artifacts” on the
image.

Double-window, two-tuner Picture-in-Picture (PIP) allows you

to watch two shows, side by side. No VCR is necessary for tuning
PIP pictures. Your set’s two separate tuners let you select two
shows and display both in windows of equal proportion.

Virtual Dolby* Surround (referred to as Dolby Virtual in the
on-screen submenu) uses two speakers to simulate the surround

effect produced by a multichannel system.

Incredible Surround™ enhances stereo programs by making the

sound broader and fuller.

Center channel input, which has standard clip-on style speaker

connectors, simplifies the connection of surround-sound equipment
for optimal home-theater enjoyment. Since it contains the dialog
information, the center channel is vitally important to the overall
performance of any large screen in a home-theater system.

Home-cinema universal remote control operates your TV set and

other devices that work by infrared remote control, such as VCRs,

cable converter boxes, satellite receivers, and others. Note:You may

need to program the remote to work with devices other than the TV.
See pages 18–23.

Hi-fi stereo system, including a built-in audio amplifier and a twin

speaker system with 2-inch tweeters and 5-inch woofers. The sys­tem enables you to hear stereo sound or Second Audio Program
(SAP) bilingual broadcasts when they are available.

Audio/video jacks allow direct connections with VCRs and other

accessories for quality TV picture and sound playback. Component
video input jacks are provided for high-fidelity color and picture
resolution when using digital video source material, such as a DVD.

Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) control keeps the TV’s sound at an

even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or
commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, com­fortable sound.

AutoChron™ automatically sets the right time of day and main-

tains it with digital precision through brownouts, power failures,
and even Daylight Savings Time adjustments.

AutoLock™ protects young children from objectionable program-

ming with V-chip technology.

AutoSound™ allows you to select from three factory-set controls

and a personal control that you set according to your own prefer­ences through the on-screen Sound submenu. The three factory-set
controls—Voice, Music, and Theatre—enable you to tailor the TV
sound to enhance the particular programming you are watching.

AutoSurf™ allows you to easily switch among only the channels

that are of interest to you. You can program up to 10 channels into
the TV’s AutoSurf™ memory through the on-screen display.

Channel Edit allows you to add or remove channels from the list of

channels stored in the TV’s memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to
limit or expand the number of channels that are available to you
when you press the CH +/– buttons on your remote control.

Closed Captioning allows you to read TV program dialog or voice

conversations as on-screen text.

Dynamic Contrast helps sharpen the picture quality by making the

contrast between the dark and bright picture areas more noticeable
as the image on screen changes.

Because DVI is such new technology, the elec­tronics industry is still working toward a deci­sion on one standard. Philips testing has deter­mined that compatibility issues exist with
respect to a limited number of high-definition
receivers when they are connected to the DVI
input on this television. If you should experi­ence difficulties, please contact our Customer
Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

he TV’s audio/video (AV) input jacks provide

for direct picture and sound connections
between the TV and accessory devices such as
VCRs, DVD players, and others that have AV out­put jacks.

This example, which uses the INPUT-AV 1 jacks,
shows you one way to connect a VCR to your TV.

Refer to the directions-for-use manual for your
VCR for further information on connections.

To make the connections shown in this example,
you will need:

• one coaxial cable (75Ω)

• one cable for a video connection (standard

RCA connector)

•two cables for audio connections (standard

RCA connectors) (only one cable is needed for
a nonstereo VCR).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV.
You should be able to buy them at most stores
that sell electronics. Or you can call our
Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

1

Connect a cable TV or antenna signal to

the ANT IN jack on the rear of the VCR.

2

Connect from the OUT jack on the rear

of the VCR to the

ANTENNA IN 75Ω

jack on the rear of the TV.

3

Connect the VIDEO OUT jack on the

rear of the VCR to the INPUT AV1
VIDEO jack on the rear of the TV.

4

Connect the audio output R(ight) and
L(eft) jacks on the rear of the VCR to the

INPUT-AV 1 AUDIO jacks on the rear of
the TV.

NOTE: If the VCR is a mono (nonstereo)

unit, connect only the left audio cable,
which usually has a white connector.

5

Press the AV button on the remote con­trol as many times as necessary to select

the AV1 source for the viewing of materi­als from your VCR.

HECK IT OUT

• Stereo sound will pass from the ANT
OUT jack on the VCR to the ANTENNA
IN 75Ω jack on the TV only when the
VCR is in TV mode. This is the mode
that allows the TV to use its channel
selector.

•To simplify making connections, audio
and video cables often have color-coded
plugs. The jacks on your TV are likewise
color coded to match the plugs. The cod­ing is as follows:
—Yellow for video (composite)
—Red for the right audio channel
—White for the left audio channel

NOTE: If your VCR is mono (non-

stereo), you will connect only one audio
cable. You must ensure that the TV is set
to MONO for the signal source to which
you’ve connected the VCR (

INPUT-AV

1,
INPUT-AV2, or the side panel inputs
[AV3]). Otherwise, you will receive
sound from only one of the TV’s speakers.

CONNECTING A VCR

AND CABLE BOX

P

resented here is a connection example

involving a VCR and cable box.

Refer to the VCR’s directions-for-use manual
for further information on connections.

To make the connections in this example, you
will need:

• one, two-way signal splitter

•two coaxial cables (75Ω)

• one cable for a video connection (standard
RCA connector)

•two cables for audio connections (standard
RCA connectors) (only one cable is needed
for connection to a nonstereo VCR).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your
TV. You should be able to buy them at most
stores that sell electronics. Or you can call
our Customer Care Center at
1-800-531-0039.

1

Connect a cable TV signal to a two-

way signal splitter.

2

Connect one of the two-way signal
splitter outputs to the INPUT on the

cable box.

3

Connect the other two-way signal
splitter output to the ANTENNA IN

75Ω on the rear of the TV.

4

Connect from the cable box OUTPUT
jack to the ANT IN jack on the rear of

the VCR.

5

Connect the VIDEO OUT jack on
the VCR to the INPUT-AV 1 VIDEO

jack on the rear of the TV.

6

which usually has a white connector.

7

Press the AV button on the remote
control as many times as necessary

to select the AV1 source for the view­ing of materials from your VCR.

Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV

• The RF output on a cable box, usually
labeled “OUTPUT,” “OUT,” or “TO TV,”
will not pass a stereo sound signal to the
ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the TV. If, how­ever, your cable box has separate
Audio/Video outputs, using A/V cables to
connect to those outputs and to the A/V
inputs on the TV might pass a stereo sound
signal to the TV. Contact your cable TV
company for more information.

•To simplify making connections, the plugs
on audio and video cables are often color
coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise
color coded to match the plugs.
The coding is as follows:
—Yellow for video (composite)
—Red for the right audio channel
—White for the left audio channel

NOTE: If your VCR is mono (nonstereo),

you will connect only one audio cable. You
must ensure that the TV is set to MONO for
the signal source to which you’ve connected
the VCR (INPUT-AV 2, INPUT-AV 1, or the
side panel inputs [AV3]). Otherwise, you will
receive sound from only one of the TV’s
speakers. See page 38.

CONNECTING A STANDARD DVD PLAYER

C

omponent video inputs allow the highest pos-

sible color and picture resolution in the play­back of digital signals, such as those of DVD
players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and
the luminance (Y) signal are connected and
received separately. The result is better color
bandwidth information than is possible with com­posite video (labeled VIDEO on your TV’s jack
panel) or S-Video connections.

To make the connections shown in this example,
you will need:

• three cables for video connections (standard

RCA connectors)

•two cables for audio connections (standard

RCA connectors).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV.
You should be able to buy them at most stores
that sell electronics. Or you can call our
Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

1

Connect the YPbPr (component)
VIDEO OUT jacks from the DVD player

to the INPUT-AV 1 YPbPr (component
video) jacks on the rear of the TV.

NOTE:The INPUT-AV 1 YPbPr jacks
will accept 480i (interlaced) output sig­nals only. The connection example on this

page assumes the use of a DVD player
with interlaced output. Some DVD play­ers, however, have YPbPr outputs that can
be switched between interlaced and pro­gressive scan. If you are attempting to use
a DVD player with progressive-scan (480p
output) capability to make the connection
shown in this example, you must be sure
to switch the DVD player to interlaced. If
necessary, refer to the DVD player’s direc­tions-for-use manual for help. If you want
to use the DVD player in progressive-scan
mode, you must use the
HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks (see page 14).

2

Connect the AUDIO OUT L(eft) and
R(ight) jacks from the DVD player to the

INPUT-AV 1 AUDIO jacks on the rear of
the TV.

3

Press the AV button on the remote con­trol as many times as necessary to select

the CVI (component video input) source
on the TV for the viewing of materials
from your DVD player.

Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV

•To simplify making connections, the con­nectors on audio and video cables are often
color coded. The jacks on your TV are like­wise color coded to match the connectors.

• The names for the component video jacks
may differ depending on the DVD player or
accessory digital source equipment used.
For example, besides YPbPr, you may see
R-Y/B-Y/Y; or CrCbY. Although abbrevia-

tions and terms may vary, the letters B and
R stand for the blue and red color compo­nent signal connectors, respectively, and Y

indicates the luminance signal. If necessary,
refer to the directions-for-use manual for
your DVD or digital accessory for more
information.

•You can also connect a satellite receiver to
the TV in a manner similar to the example
shown on this page. If you connect a satel­lite receiver to the TV, you will need to use
the receiver’s channel-memorization system
to store channels in the receiver’s memory.

• If you experience difficulties receiving
sound with a DVD disc, check the sound
settings through the DVD disc’s menu.

• CVI is not accessible in the PIP window.

See page 8 in the Quick Use and Setup
Guide for more on the PIP feature.

on-screen menu, you will need to connect
the DVD player to another AV input
source in addition to HD INPUT-AV 4 to
see the DVD menu. Select this additional
AV source on screen to see the DVD menu
and choose progressive-scan mode. You
will then be able to see the DVD picture
through the AV4 source.

• Some DVD players have dedicated progres­sive-scan output jacks that are labeled as
such and require no switching to provide a
picture through the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks.
See your DVD player’s directions-for-use
manual for information.

• The default color-space setting for the
HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks is YPbPr. RGB is
also an option. If the picture’s color looks
grossly incorrect, try changing either the
DVD player’s or TV’s color-space setting.
See the DVD player’s directions-for-use
manual for information on setting its color
space. Or see page 61 in this manual to set
the TV’s color space.

•The Picture-in-Picture (PIP) feature does
not function with AV4 or AV5.

• HD receivers will supply stereo sound to the TV only through the audio
left and right cables, not through the coaxial cable.

• Making a standard connection along with the HD connection as shown
in the example (S-VIDEO) on this page will allow you to see the receiv­er’s on-screen menu and a picture (valid signal) from the receiver should
it be switched to SD mode.

•The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are for standard RCA-type phono plugs.
Your HD receiver may use RCA or BNC output jacks. If your HD
receiver comes with BNC jacks, you will need to purchase BNC-to-RCA
adapters to connect the receiver to the TV. You should be able to pur­chase these adapters at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call
our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

•The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are compatible with some digital equipment
having RGB outputs with “sync on green” or RGB with “separate H and V
sync.” Output standards for digital equipment, however, may vary by manu­facturer. No industry standards have been established for HD television RGB
signal systems, timing, synchronization, and signal strengths. If the digital
equipment you want to connect to your TV offers both component video and
RGB outputs, component video is the suggested connection to use.

• The default color-space setting for the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks is YPbPr.
RGB is also an option. If the picture color looks grossly incorrect, try
changing either the receiver’s or TV’s color space. See the receiver’s
directions-for-use manual for information on setting its color space. Or
see page 61 in this manual for setting the TV’s AV4 color space.

•AV4 and AV5 do not function with the PIP feature. They cannot be dis­played in the PIP window, nor can the PIP window be displayed when
those signal sources are being viewed on the main screen.

PROGRAMMING THE

TV REMOTE TO WORK WITH ACCESSORY DEVICES

Y

our TV remote is capable of working not

only your TV but also other infrared
remote (IR) controlled devices such as VCRs,
cable TV converter boxes, satellite receivers,
DVD players, and laser-disc players.

If you want to use your TV remote to oper­ate a VCR or other accessory device, you
will need to perform this initial check
explained in this section. You may also need
to go to the sections on the “Code-entry
Method” and the “Search Method” in the
pages that follow.

1

Press the VCR or ACC(essory)
mode button on the TV remote for

the desired accessory device category.

NOTE: Pressing the VCR mode button

allows access to product codes for
VCRs. Pressing the ACC(essory) mode
button allows access to the product
codes for cable TV converters, satellite
receivers, DVD players, and laser-disc
players.

2

Point the TV remote toward the
desired accessory device and press
the POWER button.

Does the remote turn the accessory
device on?

If yes, and try other function but-

tons on the TV remote. With a VCR,
for example, try the Play, Stop, and
Rewind buttons, for example. (See
page 23 for information on how the
remote buttons correspond with acces­sory device functions.) If they also
work the accessory device, then the
remote is ready and no further steps
are needed.

If not, do the following:
Look up a four-digit remote code

number on pages 21 or 22 for your

brand of accessory device. Then go
through the simple steps for entering a
four-digit code as explained on
page 19.

Using the Remote Control

If more than one four-digit code number is
listed, you may have to try more than the
first number given to locate your device’s

USING THE CODE-ENTRY METHOD TO PROGRAM YOUR TV REMOTE

N

ow that you have looked up the four-

digit remote-control Direct-entry Code
for your brand of accessory device, you are
ready to follow the simple steps shown below
to program your TV remote.

Please read through all the steps before
beginning.

1

First, press and hold down the VCR
or ACC (for an accessory device
other than a VCR) mode button on

the TV remote. Then press and hold
down the MENU/SELECT button at
the same time for a brief moment.
Release the buttons. The TV remote
back light will switch on.
NOTE: For correct operation, you
must first press and hold the mode
button and then press and hold the
MENU/SELECT button simultaneously.

2

Within 30 seconds of pressing the
VCR (or ACC) button and
MENU/SELECT button, enter a
four-digit code for the accessory
device (see pages 21 and 22).

If you make a mistake while attempt­ing to enter the four-digit code and
want to start again, press any button
other than one with a number. Then
return to step 1 to begin again.

3

Point the remote at the accessory
device. Then press the POWER button

on the remote to turn the device on.

Using the Remote Control

• If you do not enter a complete code within
30 seconds, you will need to perform step
1 of the Code-entry Method again.

• If you enter more than four digits, the unit
will retain the first four digits entered.

• If the procedure explained above does not

work the first time, repeat the steps using
the same remote code number.

• If after a second try the remote does not

operate your accessory device, and more
code numbers are listed for your brand,
use the next listed code number.

• If after repeated attempts the Entry-code

Method does not allow you to work your
accessory device with your TV remote, try
the Search Method explained on the next
page.

USING THE S

EARCH METHOD TO PROGRAM YOUR TV REMOTE

Y

our TV remote can be set to work various

accessory devices (VCRs, cable convert­ers, and satellite receivers, for example) by
what is called the Search Method.

NOTE: The Search Method works only with
devices equipped with channel-display indi­cators on the devices themselves or the abili­ty to show channel numbers on the TV
screen. If the Code-entry Method (shown in
the previous section) did not enable your TV
remote to work your accessory device, then
follow the easy steps listed below. Please
read the steps once before performing them.

1

Turn on the desired device. Press
and hold down the VCR or ACC
(for an accessory device other than
a VCR) mode button on the TV

remote. Then press and hold down the
SURF button as you hold down the
desired mode (VCR or ACC) button.

NOTE: For correct operation, you

must press and hold down the desired
mode (VCR or ACC) button first and
then press and hold down the SURF
button second.

While holding down the SURF and
the desired mode (VCR or ACC)
buttons simultaneously, point the
remote toward the accessory device

and continue holding the buttons
down.

2

Watch the Channel Indicator on
your accessory device. Channel num-

bers will scan up when the TV remote
has identified the correct code for
your accessory device. This may take
several minutes.

3

Release the mode (VCR or ACC)
and SURF buttons as soon as chan­nel numbers start to scan up. The

scanning means that your TV remote
has found the code for your accessory
device.

NOTE:

If no channel change happens

after several minutes, repeat steps 1 and

2. Then if a channel change still does not
occur, the remote will not work with the
desired accessory device.

Using the Remote Control

•The remote’s back light will blink
as the remote moves through its
product code list. After the remote
identifies the product code for
your accessory device and you
release the remote buttons, the
back light will blink twice.

•Your TV remote may locate the
accessory device’s code quickly or
within several minutes.

• Don’t let the accessory device
scan up more than five channels
when the correct code is found—
the remote may pass up the right
code and have to repeat the search
cycle.

Using the On-screen Submenus: Picture

A

s explained in the Quick Use and Setup

Guide, your projection TV has three color
projection tubes: one for red, one for green, and
one for blue. When mixed in proper proportion,
the beams of light coming from the tubes can
produce any color. To create a clear picture,
however, these color beams must be precisely
aligned. This alignment is called conv ergence.
Bumps and vibrations, moving the set, or the
presence of magnetic fields can cause the color
beams to become improperly aligned, or mis­converged, resulting in a fuzzy picture. Using
the Auto IntelliSense™ feature, you can auto­matically adjust convergence in 20 seconds or
less. See page 7 in the Quick Use and Setup
Guide. Also, if you desire, you can use the
MANUAL CONVERGE controls—explained on
this page and the next—to make additional con­vergence adjustments to suit your personal pref­erences or to further fine-tune the picture. See
the chart to the right to determine which
MANUAL CONVERGE controls to use for cur­rent picture conditions.

NOTE: Allow the TV to warm up for 20 minutes
before adjusting convergence.

show the on-screen menu. Press the
CURSOR RING RIGHT to enter the
PICTURE submenu. Then press the
CURSOR RING DOWN repeatedly until

Press the CURSOR RING RIGHT to

enter the MANUAL CONVERGE
submenu. If you want to adjust the Red
Convergence, press the CURSOR RING

CONVERGE BLUE, then press the
CURSOR RING RIGHT to enter adjust
mode.

outline around it is gone. (The adjust­ment is automatically saved in the TV’s
memory.) To return to the MANUAL

he AutoLock™ feature can help par-

ents control what their children watch
on TV. AutoLock™ does this by using the
content advisories sent by broadcasters
or other program providers. After you
program AutoLock™, it can respond to
the content advisories and block pro­grams that contain content that you may
consider objectionable—offensive lan­guage, violence, or sexual situations. You
can also use AutoLock™ to block chan­nels that you don’t want your children to
watch.

In this section, you’ll learn how to block
channels and programming that is not
rated, is unrated, or has no rating. You
will also find out how to turn these block­ing features on or off. Following on this
page are brief explanations of
AutoLock™ terms and program ratings.

Terms
BLOCKING control—can be thought

of as the “master switch” for
AutoLock™. This control affects the set­tings you have chosen for blocking pro­grams according to movie ratings or TV
ratings, or for blocking programs that
have no rating or are unrated. When the
BLOCKING control is OFF, the blocking
or censoring of programs is disabled.
When the BLOCKING control is ON,
blocking will occur according to the set­tings you have chosen.

BLOCK UNRATED control—if set to

ON, blocks all unrated programs.

Unrated programming consists of the
kind of shows that the MPAA (Motion
Picture Association of America) or the
TV broadcasters have chosen not to rate.

NO RATING control—if set to ON,

blocks all programming with no content
advisory data.

Programming that has No Rating is not
encoded with any rating information
from the MPAA or the Parental
Guidelines. Any programming could fall
into this category.

BLOCK CHANNEL control—enables

you to block individual channels that you
don’t want children to see.

REVIEWING YOUR

CURRENT AUTOLOCK™ SETTINGS

MOVIERATING—shows all the movie ratings

that you have chosen to block within the MOVIE

RATING control. NOTE: If a lower rating is

blocked, higher ratings will also be blocked auto­matically. For example, if you block R-rated pro­grams, those that are rated X will also be blocked.

TV RATING—shows all the TV ratings that you

have chosen to block within the TV RATING con-

trol. NOTE: If a lower rating is blocked, higher

ratings will also be blocked automatically. For
example, if you block TV-PG-rated programs,
those rated TV-14 and TV-MA will also be
blocked. The TV rating controls also have subrat­ings for Violence (V), Fantasy Violence (FV),
Sexual Situations (S), Coarse Language (L), and
Suggestive Language (D). If you turn off a main
rating but turn on a subrating of that main rating
control, programs having the subrating will be
blocked; however, the main rating will not appear
within the AutoLock review submenu because you
did not turn it ON.

BLOCK UNRATED—shows whether you have

turned this control ON or OFF.

BLOCK NO RATING—shows whether you

have turned this control ON or OFF.

Using the On-screen Submenus: Features

The AutoLock™ review screen will appear
only if you have turned ON the BLOCK­ING control (see page 51).

USING THE PICTURE-FORMAT CONTROL

Using the On-screen Submenus: Features

Picture-format Modes

4:3 shows the conventional (4:3 aspect ratio)

picture in its original format. Border bars are
displayed on the sides. (See the warning above.)

EXPAND 4:3 expands, or zooms, the picture

both vertically and horizontally, eliminating or
reducing the size of border bars. Picture infor­mation is lost around the edges.

PANORAMA stretches the outer portions of

the picture horizontally and causes some verti­cal expansion.

WIDE SCREEN expands the picture horizon-

tally. No vertical expansion occurs.

AUTO senses the presence of borders bars and

zooms the picture to reduce or eliminate the
bars. The amount of zoom varies based on the
original picture, but this option can provide
more expansion than EXPAND 4:3.

AUTO works best with video programs that

were originally “letterboxed.” Formatted to pre­serve the original theatrical aspect ratio, these
programs are presented with border bars at top
and bottom.

Selecting a Picture Format

Using the Remote Control

Use your TV’s picture-format modes with video
sources you connect to the ANTENNA, AV1,
CVI, AV2, or AV3 (side panel) inputs on the TV.
While watching a video source—with no on­screen menu or display present—press the
CURSOR RING RIGHT or LEFT as many
times as necessary to select the picture format
you desire. Or press the FORMAT button to
perform the same function.

56

• The term aspect ratio refers to the rela-

tionship between the width and height of
a TV screen. Historically, TV screen
width has been 33 percent greater than its
height, amounting to a 4:3 aspect ratio.
The width of your widescreen TV, how­ever, is nearly 80 percent greater than its
height, which means its aspect ratio is
16:9. This screen corresponds well with
the tendency of the eyes to feel more
comfortable with fields of view and
action planes that are horizontally orient­ed. The wide screen is also proportionally
truer to the formats in which movies are
filmed and presented in theaters.

• Although the term widescreen can have

various meanings, it is most commonly
used to refer to a picture format or screen
that has a greater aspect ratio than the
conventional 4:3.

HELPFUL

HINTS

To prevent uneven
picture-tube aging,
do not leave border
bars or other sta­tionary images on
screen for extended
periods of time. See
page 62.

WARNING

Y

our TV’s wide screen (16:9 aspect ratio)

delivers a home-cinema experience not pos­sible with a conventional (4:3 aspect ratio) set.
High-definition (HD) programs originating in
16:9 format and other widescreen-format video
sources appear more lifelike, dramatic, and the­atrical. Border bars are diminished or eliminat­ed. Most anamorphic-DVD programs will fill
the wide screen without border bars.

Use your HD set-top box or progressive-scan­capable DVD player to control the picture for­mats of video sources connected to the TV’s HD
inputs.

For flexibility with video sources connected to
your TV’s standard inputs—ANTENNA, AV1,
CVI, AV2, or AV3 (side panel)—access your TV’s
picture-format modes. View a video source in
standard (4:3) format or enlarge it to fill the
screen in various ways using EXPAND 4:3,
PANORAMA, WIDE SCREEN, or AUTO.

Pictures appear more lifelike,
dramatic, and theatrical on your
TV's wide screen.

CARE AND C

LEANING

General Information: Care and Cleaning

WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on
the TV Screen:

Do not leave picture border bars or stationary
images on screen for extended periods of time.
This can cause uneven picture-tube aging.

Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures
that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the
screen. Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen for
extended periods of time, or to display the same images on
screen too frequently, because subtle ghost images can be left
on the picture tubes. Avoid showing pictures with border bars or
the same stationary images more than 15 percent of your total
viewing in any one week. Sources of stationary images may be
broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, digital
television boxes, DVD discs, laser discs, video games, CD-i

discs, videotapes, and others. Here are some examples of sta-

tionary images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may
encounter others in your viewing):

• Border bars—solid bars shown when viewing a standard

(4:3) picture and some widescreen movies on your
widescreen (16:9) TV

• DVD menus—listings of DVD disc content

• Video-game images and scoreboards

• Television station logos—present a problem if they are bright

and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are less like­ly to cause uneven aging of the picture tube

• Stock-market tickers—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.

All picture tubes age with use, with their light output diminish­ing over time. But by maintaining normal use—mixing televi­sion picture types—you will create conditions in the tubes age
at an even rate. The result will be a TV picture that is evenly
bright over the entire screen.

PLACEMENT OF THE TV

•To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and
increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot; for example, in
direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.

• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated
back cover of the set.

CLEANING

•To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV is unplugged
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

•Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster to
keep the TV clean.

• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the
screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abra­sive. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the front screen
with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, ver­tical strokes when cleaning.

Specially designed screen-cleaning kits are also available.
These kits contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to
get into the ridges of the TV screen. Purchase the kits at
stores that sell electronics. Or call our Customer Care Center
at 1-800-531-0039.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge
dampened in a solution of cool, clear water and a mild soap
or detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back
cover of the set.

•Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on
or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of
the cabinet finish.

the TV. See page *Q-2 for the location of the remote-sensor window.

• Clean the remote control and the remote-sensor window on the TV. See page *Q-2 for the location of the remote-sensor window.

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert the plug into the outlet and push the remote power or

TV power/standby button again. To locate the TV power/standby button, see page *Q-2.

• If you have your TV plugged into an AC power strip, ensure that the fuse on the power strip is not blown.

• Ensure that you have selected the correct picture signal source using the AV (remote) or Source Select (TV) buttons. See page 24.

• If you are attempting to view a picture from a progressive-scan-capable DVD player to the HD inputs, ensure that you have
switched the DVD player to progressive-scan mode. See page 14, as well as the DVD player’s directions-for-use manual.

• If you are using an HD receiver, ensure that its output is set correctly (HD or SD) based on the connection to the TV you have
made. See 15. Also, refer to the directions-for-use manual that came with the HD receiver.

GLOSSARY OF

TELEVISION TERMS

General Information: Glossary of Television Terms

Active Control™ • Proactive video-control system for NTSC

(see definition below) sources. Active Control™ continuously
measures and corrects the incoming signals to provide the best
picture possible.

Alternate Channel • The feature that allows you to toggle

between the last two channels viewed by pressing the A/CH button
on the remote control.

Audio/Video Inputs • Jacks (standard RCA), located on the rear of

the TV, used for the input of audio and video signals. These jacks
are designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) to receive
higher picture resolution and offer sound-connection options.

Auto Program • The feature that, when activated, scans for all

available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores
only active broadcast stations in the TV’s memory.

Channel Edit • The feature that allows you to add or delete chan-

nels from the list of channels stored in the TV’s memory. Channel
Edit makes it easy to limit or expand the number of channels that
are available to you when you press the CH +/– buttons on your
remote control.

Closed Captioning • The broadcast standard feature that allows

you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV
screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired, Closed Captioning
uses on-screen text boxes to show dialogue and conversations
while a TV program is in progress.

Coaxial Cable • A single solid wire normally matched with a

metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly
onto a 75-ohm input found on the television or VCR.

Comb Filter • TV filter that removes distortion, resulting in a

sharper and purer color display. The comb filter addresses the
annoying cross-color distortion that may occur in TV broadcasts
when, for example, the presenter wears a striped or checked jacket.

Component Video Inputs • Inputs that allow the separate recep-

tion of blue, red, and luminance signals. These inputs provide the
highest possible color and picture resolution in the playback of dig­ital signal-source material, such as the kind available from DVD
players. Component video inputs allow for improved bandwidth
information not possible through composite video or S-Video con­nections.

Composite Video Input • An input in which all the components

required for displaying the on-screen image are combined in one
signal.

Convergence • The technique used in color TV for bringing the

red, green, and blue color beams together so that they hit the same
part of the picture tube screen at the same time. This avoids color
fringes around images in the picture.

High-definition Television (HDTV) • High-resolution digital tele-

vision. HDTV is high-resolution digital television. It has lifelike
pictures, and with it films retain their original width, enhancing the
home theater experience.

Incredible Surround™ • False acoustic management of the audio

signal that produces a dramatic expansion of the wall of sound that
surrounds the listener and heightens overall viewing pleasure.

Interlaced • A picture-scanning technique that improves the

appearance of on-screen motion. It also helps smooth jagged lines
that are sometimes seen on curved and angled surfaces in the pic­ture.

Menu • An on-screen list of feature controls available for the user

to adjust or set.

NTSC • National Television Standards Committee format

devised in the 1940s for TV broadcast analog video signals
(525 lines: 30 Hz).

On-screen Displays (OSD) • The wording or messages generated

by the television (or VCR) to help you with specific feature con­trols (color adjustment or programming, for example).

Picture-in-Picture • The showing of two pictures on the TV screen

at the same time (one main screen picture and one small picture, or
PIP).

Progressive Scan •A picture-scanning technique that doubles the

number of picture lines, eliminating the flicker and providing a
jitter-free picture.

PTV • Projection Television. (Rear- and/or front-projection design

systems are available.)

Remote-control Sensor Window • The window or opening found

on the television control panel through which infrared remote-con­trol command signals are received.

RGB • Red, green, and blue signal. These are the primary colors of

light that are used to produce a picture in television. By mixing
levels or R, G, and B, all colors (chrominance and luminance) are
reproduced.

RF • Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the car-

rier for television broadcasts.

Second Audio Program (SAP) •An additional audio channel pro-

vided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast
standard. A monaural soundtrack included within the recorded or
video signal (usually containing a second language translation for
the displayed programming).

Status/Exit Button • Remote-control button that, when pressed,

shows the current channel number, name (if set), time (if set),
Sleep Timer setting, and sound setting (stereo, mono, SAP, or
mute). Pressing the button twice shows the current AutoLock™
settings. Pressing the button once when an on-screen display is
showing removes the on-screen display. You can use Status/Exit
rather than having to wait for the displays to “time out,” or auto­matically disappear from the screen.

S-Video Input • Signal input that allows direct connection of high-

resolution video sources, such as a satellite receiver, DVD player, S
(Super)-VHS videocassette recorder, or video games. Provides
improved picture resolution, sharpness, and clarity.

480p • Digital picture format with 704 x 480 pixels, sent at 60

complete frames per second. This is the output format of progres­sive-scan DVD players.

1080i • Digital high-definition picture format with 1920 x 1080

pixels, sent at 60 interlaced frames per second (30 complete frames
per second).

Tint • TV function that allows you to change the general color bal-

ance between cool and warm. Adjust tint according to your person­al preference.

Twin–lead Wire • The more commonly used name for the two-

strand, 300-ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor
antenna systems. In many cases, this type of antenna wire requires
an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75-ohm
input terminals designed into the more recent TVs and VCRs.
