control? Are you tired of tearing
the house apart trying to find if
someone has stuffed the remote
under the couch, put it on the

shelves, or hid it in the desk? Well,
your TV remote can save you all
that looking by automatically
signaling its location to you.

Here's how it works:

LBEQINJ

Press the POWER button on

the set to turn the TV ON.

Note: Normally you can press any
button on the front of the TV to

turn the set ON. But for the remote

locator to work you need to be sure

to use the Power button at the TV.
A "locating remote" message

shows on die TV screen.

Your TV is attempting
to locate a lost remote

Within a few seconds a

<l>

chirping or beeping sound will
begin to come from the remote

control hand unit.
The remote will continue to signal

its location for around 30 seconds.

Normal TV program sound will not

be heard while the remote locator is

working.

Once you find the remote just
press any button on the remote and
the beeping sound will stop.

The remote is now ready for
normal TV feature use.

Smari III 1.1’

Remember, the remote

locator may not properly

receive its "homing" signal from

the TV if it has been placed on a

metal shelf or counter material.

Also, since there’s a special type
of radio frequency "homing"
signal receiver inside the remote
we are required to notify you that
any changes or modifications not

expressly approved by Philips

Consumer Electronics Company
could void the user's authority to

operate the remote equipment

26

Rkmo i K Com ROL Opkration (com im kd)

Vl)l )kl SS ( ( )l)l l’k( )( , R \ \ l \ l l\( , <>|

For most homes this step would
not be needed but for your
information:

Up to 9 different remote locator
address codes can be set on which the
TV can send out its "homing” signal.

TMs is done in case there is more than
one TV (with a remote locator)

present, and you want only one

specific remote to be signaled when the
TV is turned ON.*

To set a Locator Address Code:

<i>

LOCATOR CODE button on the
remote. (Also be sure the TV
SYSTEM button on the remote has
been pressed.)

You will need a pencil or pen to press
the recessed button.

The TV shows the present Remote
Locator Code.

Ri Mill I

With TV turned ON, press the

See the above infonnation on
how to use the Locator Code
Button for Programming.

Press any number button (0-9) on

the remote to set or change the

Locator Code.

Smart IIi i,

Remember, if batteries are

replaced the Locator Code

will need to be reentered.
When setting the Locator Code if any

button, other than the number buttons,
are pressed the remote will return to
its noimal operation mode.

♦For owners who live in an apartment

(townhouse or condominium)
complex, this task may be necessary
since the remote locator's signal can
be sent and detected directly through
adjoming walls.

GL()SSAR^ TO TkLKV ISION TkRMS

A/V Inputs * Connector plugs which allow the introduction of distinct
audio and video signals into the TV from accessory VCRs, camcorders,
etc. These plugs bypass the normal tuner or RF/Antetma signal circuitry.

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 Us Television feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).

Direct AudiofVideo 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.

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 "identifred" then the TV remote can operate and
send commands to the other product

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 television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature
controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the Television
screen that are made available for user adjustments.

sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder. Laser Disc
player, etc. Provides optimum picture resolution, sharpness, and
clarity.

Twin Lead Wire ♦ The more commonly used name for the two

strand 3(X) Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor
anteima systems. In many cases this type of anterma wire requires an
