Why So Many Types of Inputs?

As better-quality signals have become available, new inputs have been designed into accessory devices (VCRs, DVD players, cable boxes, etc.) and TVs to carry them. The other inputs have been left in place to work with the installed base of older equipment. Here is a summary of the quality of signal offered by the different types of inputs:

Basic: ANTENNA IN 75Ω. May provide the only way to connect an antenna and some older cable boxes and VCRs.

Good: VIDEO (Composite) Input. A small step up in quality from the ANTENNAIN 75Ω input. Most cable boxes, VCRs, and DVD players have this type of connection.

Better: S-VIDEO (Super Video) Input. Separates the signal into color and brightness, improving image quality. Used with DVD players, digital cable boxes, satellite receivers, and some camcorders.

Best: Y Pb Pr (Component Video) Input. Carry potentially the best-quality signals. The video signal is split into three signals, two color and one brightness. Used primarily with DVD players.

Preconnection Recommendations

Allow 4 to 6 inches behind the TV for ventilation.

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

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

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

Positioning the TV

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

• 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.

Providing Protection Against Power Surges

• Connect all accessory devices before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet or power strip. NEVER plug your TV into an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.

• Turn off the TV and/or accessory devices before you connect or disconnect any cables.

• Ensure that all antennas and cables are properly grounded. See page 3, “Important Safety Instructions.”

Protecting Accessory Devices from Overheating

• Arrange accessory devices so that air can circulate freely around them.

• Don’t stack the accessory devices. Arrange them to allow for good ventilation.

• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it will not flow around other components.

Connecting Cables

Be sure to insert each cable firmly into the correct jack.

Using the Connection Examples in This Manual

The accessory device jack panels shown are for example purpose only. The jack panels on your accessory devices may look different. Also, note that connections can be made in various ways. The examples are presented only as guides.

Antenna

Signal

Back of VCR

(example only)

Connect the incoming antenna or cable TV signal to the ANT IN jack on the back of the VCR.

Using a coaxial cable, connect the ANT OUT jack on the back of the VCR to the ANTENNAIN 75Ω jack on the back of the TV.

Using A/V cables, connect the AUDIO and VIDEO OUT jacks on the back of the VCR to the corresponding INPUTAV 2 audio (L and R) and video (V) jacks on the back of the TV.

Press the Source button on the remote control to access the Source list.

Press the Cursor Up or Down button to select the AV2 input source.

Press the OK button to confirm your choice. The set is now switched to the AV2 input source for the viewing of programs from the VCR.

NOTE: Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal directly to the TV’s tuner (step 2 above), you can watch the unscrambled programs by simply tuning to the desired channel. To store channels in the TV’s memory, you must use Autoprogram, which you can access through “Install” in the TV’s on-screen menu. See the Autoprogram section in the Quick Use and Setup Guide that came with the TV. If you use Autoprogram, you can select channels by pressing the CH + or – buttons on the TV remote control (in TV mode). Otherwise, you must press the digit (number) buttons to tune directly to the channel you desire.

Connecting a VCR and Cable Box

NOTE: A cable box with AUDIO OUT jacks such as the one used in the example on this page might pass stereo sound to the TV. Check with your cable TV company. The RF jack output jack on a cable box (commonly labeled “OUT TO TV,” “OUTPUT,” or “OUT”) will not pass stereo sound to your TV.

Connect the incoming cable TV signal to a two-way signal splitter. The signal splitter enables you to route the cable signal to the TV without using the OUT TO TV jack on the cable box, which will not pass stereo sound to the TV.

Programming the Remote Control

The remote control supplied with your television will also operate a variety of infraredcontrolled accessory devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVD players, satellite receivers, and amplifiers.

The TV remote’s default mode at power up and after replacing the batteries is TV. You must press the Select button to switch the remote to one of the accessory modes—CBL, VCR, DVD, SAT, or AMP.

Depending on the accessory device you have, programming may not be necessary, because default codes for certain accessory devices have already been programmed into the remote. So before attempting to program, try this test:

• Press the Select button to cycle through the accessory modes—CBL, VCR, DVD, SAT, or AMP. The green light indicates the selected mode. Two seconds after selection, the accessory-mode light will begin to blink. The blinking light means the remote is in the selected accessory mode.

• Point the remote toward the accessory device, then press the Standby–On button to see if the accessory device responds. If not, follow the steps below to program the remote. Suggestion: The programming process is easy, but you may want to read the following steps first to familiarize yourself with what you’ll be doing, then go back through the steps again, reading and performing them.

Press the Select and Standby–On buttons at the same time, then release.

NOTE: When inputting the digits as described below, you must not allow more than 20 seconds to pass between the input of each digit or you will need to return to step 1 and begin the programming process again.

Input the appropriate digit provided below for the type of accessory device you want to operate: 1 Cable (CBL) 2 VCR 3 DVD 4 Satellite (SAT) 5 Amplifier (AMP).

Input the 4-digit code for the type and brand of accessory device. The codes are listed on pages 22-23.

Programming the Remote Control

Continued from page 20.

The green light behind the Standby–On button will blink for 3 seconds to show that a valid code was input. If a valid code was not entered, the light will stay on continuously for 3 seconds. If that occurs, go back to step 1 and begin the programming process again.

Now you will try to use the TV remote with the accessory device.

Press the Select button on the remote to cycle across the accessory mode dial. Stop pressing the button when the mode you desire is lighted. The light will stay on for 2 seconds and then begin blinking. The blinking means that the remote is in the accessory mode you have selected.

Within 60 seconds from the time the blinking starts, point the remote toward the accessory device and press the Standby–On button.

If the device does not respond to the Standby–On command, follow the steps for programming the remote again using a different setup code for the type and brand of accessory device you wish to operate. Refer again to the code list on pages 22-23. If no more codes are listed for the type and brand of accessory device, the remote likely will not operate your particular model of accessory device. NOTE: Your TV remote is not necessarily capable of being programmed to operate all mod- els of the brands of accessory devices listed on pages 22-23. You may want to try the programming process again. Try using the number(s) that are listed for your type and brand of device to be sure you did not make a mistake in inputting the digits during your first attempt at programming.

You can change the duration of the time-out mode by simultaneously pressing the Select button and a digit button, 1–4. Using digit 1 will set the time-out to 15 seconds; digit 2, 30 seconds; digit 3, 60 seconds; and digit 4, 120 seconds. The default time-out setting after you replace the batteries in the remote is 60 seconds. All modes will have the same timeout setting.

HECK IT OUT

If the remote control is in one of the accessory modes (a mode light is flashing)— CBL, VCR, DVD, SAT, AMP—and you don’t press any of the remote buttons for sixty seconds, a “time-out” occurs, returning the remote to TV mode.

Operating Accessory Devices with the TV Remote

After having programmed your TV remote, use the illustrations on pages 25-26 as a reference to the functions of the remote buttons with accessory devices.

Before the remote will operate an accessory device, you must select the correct mode: CBL (cable box), VCR, DVD, SAT (satellite), or AMP (amplifier). Here’s how:

Press the Select button to cycle across the accessory mode dial. Stop pressing the button when the mode you desire is lighted. The light will stay on for two seconds and then begin blinking. The blinking means that the remote is in the accessory mode you have selected.

NOTE: If you do not use the remote for 60 seconds from the time the accessory mode light begins blinking, the light will switch off, and the TV will go back to TV mode. Each time you press any of the remote buttons when an accessory mode light is blinking, a timer is reset to keep the remote in the accessory mode you have selected.

Point the front of the remote toward the front of the accessory device, then press the button to perform the desired function.

Point the front of the remote toward the front of the accessory device, then press the necessary buttons to perform the functions you desire. Refer to pages 25-26 to see the functions of the buttons in the respective accessory modes.

To backlight the remote control buttons, press and hold the Select button for two seconds. If you do not press any remote buttons for five seconds, the backlight switches off. Each time you press a remote button while the backlight is on, the five-second time-out function is reset. After the backlight switches off, you must press and hold the Select button for two seconds to turn it back on.

HECK IT OUT

If the remote control is in one of the accessory modes (mode light flashing)—CBL, VCR, DVD, SAT, AMP—and you don’t press any of the remote buttons for sixty seconds, a “time-out” occurs, returning the remote to TV mode.

The Digital Processing control gives you a choice of different picture scanning modes.

Progressive Scan doubles the number of picture lines, eliminating line flicker and providing a jitter-free picture.

Movies Plus provides motion compensation to prevent bands of light (a halo effect) that may occur around moving images in the picture.

Pixel Plus improves the picture quality and appearance of on-screen images. The number of picture lines is increased along with the number of pixels per line, giving normal broadcast signals, DVD reproduction or Digital TV signals, unparalleled sharpness and depth. This gives the viewer near highdefinition and natural-looking detail without the high-definition signal.

The Color Enhancement control can dramatically improve the picture quality of pictures with a high saturation of color. This control works in four ways: Dynamic Blue Stretch corrects the white colors toward a more bluish-colored white without changing the other colors. Improves the sharpness of the picture. Green Enhancement offers a more saturated green color in case of low green broadcasts, giving landscapes a fresher and brighter look. Color-dependent Sharpness improves the sharpness of the picture through the color information. Gives the picture more details, especially in red colors. Skin-tone Correction adjusts for over saturation of red that often appears in skin tones.

Your TV’s wide screen (16:9 aspect ratio) delivers a home-cinema experience that isn’t possible with a conventional (4:3 aspect ratio) set. The 16:9 format of high-definition (HD) programs and other widescreen-format video sources appear more lifelike, dramatic, and theatrical. Black or gray bars are diminished or eliminated. As the television industry moves toward the high-definition format standard and more HD broadcasts become available, you will be able to see the broadcasts as they were intended—in 16:9 format.

For flexibility in viewing conventional 4:3format video sources on your TV’s wide screen, you have the options Automatic,” “Super zoom,” “Panoramic,” “4:3,” “Movie expand 14:9,” “Movie expand 16:9,” “16:9 subtitle,” or “Wide screen.”

Page 36 explains how to select a picture format option.

Selecting a Picture Format Option

The term aspect ratio refers to the relationship 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.

CARE AND CLEANING OF THE TV

WARNING

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

Cleaning the Cabinet

• Regularly dust the TV cabinet with a dry, nonscratching duster.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, clean cloth. Even if the surfaces are very dirty, do not apply cleaner to them directly. Soak the cloth in a solution of cool, clean water and mild soap or detergent. Wring out the cloth and wipe the cabinet surfaces clean. Then use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation slots on the back cover of the set. See the next section on “Cleaning or Replacing the Filters.”

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

• The television contains plastic parts. DO NOT use benzine, thinners, or other chemicals to clean. DO NOT use insecticide or other volatile substances nearby. DO NOT allow the TV to come into contact for extended periods of time with rubber or vinyl products.

Be sure the TV is unplugged before cleaning it.

Use a nonscratching duster.

Wipe with even, easy, vertical strokes.

Avoid wearing jewelry that may scratch the TV.

Soak the wiping cloth in cool, clean water and mild detergent. Then ring the cloth out before using.

Don’t use chemicals on or near the TV.

Cleaning the Screen

• Wipe the screen with a clean cloth damp-

ened with water. Screen-cleaning kits with antistatic cleaners and cloths are available. Contact our Customer Care Center at 1800-531-0039 to purchase the kit.

When cleaning the screen, take care not to

scratch or damage the screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive.

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 stationary images (this is not an all-inclu-

sive 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 like- ly 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.

The picture appears doubled or tripled.

• If you are using an antenna, be sure it is facing in the correct direction for proper reception. Also, check to see if it may be receiving signals that are being reflected off of mountains or buildings.

The picture shakes or is not clear.

• If you are using an antenna, make sure it is not broken or shorted, and make sure the antenna cable is connected properly and securely.

• If you are using a VCR and selecting channels on the TV, make sure the TV/VCR mode on the VCR is set to TV.

The picture has no colors or colors are not correct.

• Make sure you have installed the batteries correctly.

• The batteries could be dead. When the batteries in the remote run low, the remote will send a “Battery Low” command to the TV. The TV will then display a message on the screen reminding you to replace the batteries as soon as possible.

• You may want to try taking the remote batteries out and then putting them back in. NOTE: After taking the batteries out, you may need to reprogram the remote for use with accessory devices.

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 TV screen), all parts will be repaired or replaced, and labor and transportation are free. After one year from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts 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. In countries where Philips Consumer Electronics Company does not distribute the product, the local Philips service organization will attempt to provide service (although there may be a delay if the appropriate spare parts and technical manual(s) are not readily available).

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.

(In U.S.A., Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands, all implied warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited in duration to the duration of this express warranty. But, because some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty may last, this limitation may not apply to you.)

(In Canada, this warranty is given in lieu of all other warranties. No other warranties are expressed or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Philips is not liable under any circumstances for any direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, howsoever incurred, even if notified of the possibility of such damages.)
