This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of.
1. Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.
2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.
5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water
- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.
6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.
6A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended inter-
national global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design.
Do not compromise these design standards by applying exces-
sive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could ultimately overturn the product.
Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing elec-
tronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product damage and/or personal injury.
7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.
11. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
12. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer.
13. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro­vide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an anten­na discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of anten­na-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and require­ments for the grounding electrode. See Fig. below.
15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through open­ings.
17. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appli-
ance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits
a marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance
beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servic­ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that pro­vides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

A
combination (outdoor
or indoor) antenna receives normal broadcast channels 2-13 (VHF) and 14-69 (UHF). Your con­nection to such an antenna is easy since there is only one antenna plug (75­ohm) on the back of your TV - and that’s where the antenna goes.
ANTENNA
OUTDOOR/INDOOR
Remember, be sure to set the TV for the type sig­nal you've connect­ed (see "SETUP" on page 2 of this Guide.)
To order any optional accessory contact your dealer or call the toll-free accessory ordering number (1-800-851-
8885).
SMART HELP
If your antenna has a
round cableconnector(75
ohm) on the end,then you're ready to connect it to the TV.
If your antenna has flat twin­lead wire (300 ohm),you first
need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 to 75 ohm adapter.
Push the round endof the
adapter (or antenna) onto the ANTENNA plug on the rear of the TV. If the round end of the antenna wire is threaded,screw it down tight.

NOTE: Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for broadcast
with Closed Caption (CC) information included. Neither are all Closed Caption modes (CAPTION 1-4; or TEXT 1-4) necessarily being used by a broadcast station during the transmission of a closed caption program. Usually "CAPTION 1" is the most used mode to view captioned material. Refer to your area's TV program list­ings for the stations and times of Closed Caption shows.

Closed Caption information will usually appear in black and white (although some broadcasters or networks may occasionally use color to high­light or draw attention to certain areas.)
CLOSED CAPTION
NOTE: The ON DURING MUTE ONLY control can
be used to set the TV to turn the Closed Caption mode "ON" whenever the MUTE button on the remote is pressed.
SMART HELP
Remember. Broadcast
stations will often use spelling abbreviations, symbols, dropouts and other grammatical shortcuts in order to keep pace with the on-screen action. These type factors vary upon the source of the captioned text material and do not indicate a need for service on the part of the TV.

SMART HELP
Note to Parents - it isn't
possible to unlock or defeat your Censor Access Code without changing to a new code number. So if your Code number changes, and you didn't change it yourself, then you will know that someone has altered the code and the blanked out channel has been viewed.
NOTE:Your TV left the factory with the Parental Code set to "0000". If you are using your TV and the Parental Control for the first time, and don't want to SETUP a new Access code number, you can use the "0000" number to block channels - see next page. The "0711" Parental Code (shown on this page) is given as a default or way to reset the Code when the current Access number is not known.

nother new area available to parents for the censoring of
program material is through the TV Guidelines and Movie Ratings system. Program Content Advisory data will soon be contained within the broadcast signals of received TV programs. When setup by the parent or viewer, the TV can respond to transmitted advisory data by blocking out or denying access to TV shows (based on whether the program meets or exceeds the limitations you select as viewable). The TV program can then only be viewed by entering the correct and current Parental Code Access number.
The Content Advisory system uses both “Movie Ratings” and a “Parental Guidelines” form of censoring. Refer to the following page sections for explanations on the different Rating system levels and their uses.
Select the CONTENT ADVI-

Note: Remember that Content Advisory data or encoded information is not available with all received TV program­ming (this also includes commercials, and other program spot announcements). Broadcaster’s can decide not to encode any kind of content advisory ratings with their programming, or they can actually choose to encode pro- grams to be “unrated.” The TV Blocking Options allow the viewer to block any program without content advisory data with the use of its “NO RATING INFORMATION” control. And to block programs that are encoded as “unrated” with its “UNRAT­ED PROGRAMMING” control option.
Since the reception of Content Advisory data can take a few seconds, you may want to use the “CHANNEL CHANGE” option to be sure no viewing is allowed during blocked program channel changes. This can eliminate the display of a few seconds of undesirable video on the TV, or receiving scenes from a Ratings blocked channel source.

Second Audio Program (SAP) is part of the stereo broadcast sys­tem. Sent as a third audio chan­nel SAP can be heard apart from the current TV program sound. TV stations are free to use SAP for any number of purposes, but many experts believe it will be used for foreign language transla­tions of TV shows (or for weath­er and news bulletins.)
NOTE: If a SAP signal is not pre­sent with a selected program, the SAP option can not be selected. "This program does not contain SAP information" will show on the TV screen.

This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate power surges. Should this occur turn the TV back on by pressing the POWER button once or twice, or unplug and then replug the power cord at the AC outlet. This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such as those caused by lightning, which is not covered by your warranty.
CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image per­manently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF. Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.
47
• Check antenna connections on the rear of the TV. Are they properly secured to the antenna plug on the TV?
• Check the CABLE TUNING control for correct position.
• Check PICTURE SOURCE control for correct position ANTENNA; AUX 1/AUX2 VIDEO; or AUX Y PB PR position without a signal source connection will result in a blank screen.
• Check the CLOSED CAPTIONS control. Some TEXT modes could block the screen.
• Check VCR-ACC-TV “System” buttons on the remote. Press the remote’s TV System
button to send commands to the TV; VCR System to send to VCR; etc.
• Check batteries. Replace with AA Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries
if necessary.
• Clean the remote and the remote sensor window on the TV.
Cleaning and Care
• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• When cleaning the TV screen 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 which contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to get into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about an optional Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-851-8885.
• 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 cabinet back.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of the cabinet finish.
GLOSSARY TO TELEVISION TERMS
48
Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV these connec­tors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connec­tion options.
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna 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.
Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user operate and adjust TV feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).
Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.
LED * Light Emitting Diode or indicator. Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the TV
screen that are made available for user adjustments. Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard
that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture. On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages
generated by the TV to help the user with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).
Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are shown on the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP picture is supplied by a VCR (or other tuner/video playback source). The PIP picture can also be moved and swapped with the TV's main screen picture.
Pre-Amplifier * The control center of a hi-fi system. Not only amplifies source inputs, but also allows for source selection, vol­ume, tone, balance and all other controls that affect the sound.
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel num­bers into the TV’s memory circuits. In this way the TV “remem­bers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
PTV * Projection Television (Rear and/or Front projection design systems are available.)
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the TV control panel through which infrared remote control command sig­nals are received.
RF * Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the car­rier for television broadcasts.
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio channel provided 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 * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the TV of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the screen).
S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolution video sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder, Laser Disc player, etc. Provides improved picture resolution, sharpness, and clarity.
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 Televisions and VCRs.
Variable Audio Output * An adjustable audio output which allows for volume variations at the source.

LIMITED WARRANTY
WHO IS COVERED?
You must have proof of purchase to receive warranty service. A sales receipt or other document showing that you purchased the product is considered proof of purchase.
WHAT IS COVERED?
Warranty coverage begins the day you buy your product. for one year thereafter (30 days for the projection TV screen), all parts will be repaired or replaced, and labor and transportation are free. From one to two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts except the cathode ray tube and the “Clear-Vu” lens, and for all labor and transportation charges. After two years from the day of pur­chase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts except the “Clear-Vu” lens (which is guaranteed against manufacturer’s defects for the life of the product), and for all labor and transportation charges.
All parts, including repaired and replaced parts, are covered only for the original warranty period. When the warranty on the product expires, the warranty on all replaced and repaired parts also expires.
WHAT IS EXCLUDED?
Your warranty does not cover:
• labor charges for installation or setup of the product, adjustment of customer controls on the product, and installation or repair of antenna systems outside of the product.
• product repair and/or part replacement because of misuse, acci­dent, unauthorized repair or other cause not within the control of Philips Consumer Electronics Company.
• reception problems caused by signal conditions or cable or antenna systems outside the unit.
• a product that requires modification or adaptation to enable it to operate in any country other than the country for which it was designed, manufactured, approved and/or authorized, or repair of products damaged by these modifications.
• incidental or consequential damages resulting from the product. (Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequen­tial damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This includes, but is not limited to, prerecorded material, whether copy­righted or not copyrighted.)
• a product used for commercial or institutional purposes.
WHERE IS SERVICE AVAILABLE?
Warranty service is available in all countries where the product is offi­cially distributed by Philips Consumer Electronics Company.

MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...
Please keep your sales receipt or other document showing proof of purchase. Attach it to this owner’s manual and keep both nearby. Also keep the original box and packing material in case you need to return your product.
BEFORE REQUESTING SERVICE...
Please check your owner’s manual before requesting service. Adjustments of the controls discussed there may save you a service call.
TO GET WARRANTY SERVICE...
Repair must be performed by an authorized service center or a factory service center. If you do not live near a factory service center, contact your dealer. If your dealer is an authorized service center, he will arrange repair. If your dealer is not an authorized service center, he will direct you to the authorized service center engaged by him to service the products he sells.
