CHILD SAFETY:
PROPER TELEVISION PLACEMENT MATTERS
THE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY
CARES
• Manufacturers, retailers and the rest of the consumer
electronics industry are committed to making home
entertainment safe and enjoyable.
• As you enjoy your television, please note that all
televisions – new and old- must be supported on proper
stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Televisions that are inappropriately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers,
chests, carts, etc., may fall over, resulting in injury.
TUNE IN TO SAFETY
• ALWAYS follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
for the safe installation of your television.
• ALWAYS read and follow all instructions for proper use
of your television.
• NEVER allow children to climb on or play on the
television or the furniture on which the television is
placed.
• NEVER place the television on furniture that can easily
be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
• ALWAYS install the television where it cannot be
pushed, pulled over or knocked down.
• ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to the
television so that they cannot be tripped over, pulled or
grabbed.
WALL OR CEILING MOUNT YOUR
TELEVISION
• ALWAYS contact your retailer about professional
installation if you have any doubts about your ability to
safely mount your television.
• ALWAYS use a mount that has been recommended by
the television manufacturer and has a safety certification
by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).
• ALWAYS follow all instructions supplied by the
television and mount manufacturers.
• ALWAYS make sure that the wall or ceiling where you
are mounting the television is appropriate. Some mounts
are not designed to be mounted to walls and ceilings
with steel studs or cinder block construction. If you are
unsure, contact a professional installer.
• Televisions can be heavy. A minimum of two people is
required for a wall or ceiling mount installation.
MOVING AN OLDER TELEVISION TO A NEW
PLACE IN YOUR HOME
• Many new television buyers move their older CRT
televisions into a secondary room after the purchase of a
flat-panel television. Special care should be made in the
placement of older CRT televisions.
• ALWAYS place your older CRT television on furniture
that is sturdy and appropriate for its size and weight.
• NEVER place your older CRT television on a dresser
where children may be tempted to use the drawers to
climb.
• ALWAYS make sure your older CRT television does
not hang over the edge of your furniture.

Note(s)
●If you have any question about the DTV’s Antenna, visit www.antennaweb.org for further
information.
●Depending on your Antenna system, you may need different types of combiners (mixers)
or separators (splitters) for HDTV Signal. The minimum RF bandpass on these Devices is
2,000MHz or 2GHz.
●For your safety and to avoid damage to this Unit, please unplug the RF Coaxial Cable from
the Antenna Input jack before moving the Unit.
●If you did use an Antenna to receive Analog TV, it should also work for DTV reception.
Outdoor or attic Antennas will be more effective than a Set-top Box or inside Antenna.
●To Turn On your reception source easily between Antenna and Cable, Install an Antenna
selector.
●If you are not receiving a Signal from your Cable service, contact the Cable provider.

Plugging in the AC Power Cord
Make sure All the Necessary Connections are made before the AC Power
Cord is plugged into an AC outlet.
Caution(s)
●Do Not connect the AC Power Cord to an AC Power Supply outside the indicated voltage
of this Unit (120V AC).
●Connecting the AC Power Cord to a Power Supply outside of this range may result in
Unit failure, degradation or electrical shock.
Note(s)
●Each time you plug in the AC Power Cord, no operations will be performed for several
seconds. This is not a malfunction.
No supplied cables are used with these connections:
●Please purchase the Necessary Cables at your local store.
Before you connect the AC Power Cord:
Be sure other Devices are connected properly before plugging in the AC

Selecting your Connection quality
HDMI - Highest quality
Supports high-definition Digital signals and gives highest picture and sound
quality. Video and Audio signals are combined in one cable. You must use
HDMI for full high-definition Video and to enable EasyLink (HDMI CEC).
Note(s)
●Philips HDMI supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection).
HDCP is a form of Digital Rights Management that protects high definition content in Blu-
ray Discs or DVDs.
Component (Y Pb Pr) - High quality
Supports high-definition Analog signals but gives lower picture quality than
HDMI. Component (Y/Pb/Pr) Video cables combine red / green / blue
Video cables with red / white Audio (L/R) Cables. Match the cable colors
when you connect to the TV.
Composite - Basic quality
For Analog Connections. Composite Video / Audio Analog cable usually
combine a yellow Video Cable with red / white Audio (L/R) Cables. With
this Unit, yellow cable must be connected to Y (green) jack on the
Component Video Input jacks.

FAQ
Question Answer
My Remote Control does
not work.
What should I do?
●Check the Antenna or Cable Connection to the Main Unit.
●Check the Batteries on the Remote Control.
●Re-insert the Batteries with their Polarities (+/–) as indicated.
●Check if there is an obstacle between the infrared sensor window and the Remote Control.
●Test the IR Signal Output use IR Signal Check. L p. 37
If okay, then possible Infrared Sensor trouble.
●Aim the Remote Control directly at the infrared sensor window on the front of the Unit.
●Reduce the distance to the Unit.
●When there is an infrared-equipped device such as PC near this Unit, it may interrupt the Remote Control signal on this
Unit. Move the infrared-equipped device away from this Unit, change the angle of the Device's infrared sensor or Turn
Off the infrared communication function.
How come the Initial Setup
appears every time I Turn
On this Unit?
●Connect the RF Coaxial Cable directly to this Unit and run the Initial Setup.
●Make sure to complete the Initial Setup before the Unit goes into Standby mode.
Why can I not watch some
RF signal TV Programs?
●Autoprogram must be completed when you Set Up the Unit for the First time or Move it to a location where previously
unavailable channels are broadcast.
●Make sure Autoprogram has been completed. L p. 25
●The selected channel may not be broadcasting.
●When Autoprogram is interrupted and not completed, some channels will not be received. Make sure to complete the
Autoprogram. L p. 25
●The selected channel cannot be viewed by the Child and Ratings Lock setting. L p. 28
●The Unit requires some kind of Antenna Input. An indoor Antenna (Digital or VHF / UHF), an External Antenna (Digital
or VHF / UHF) or an RF Coaxial Cable from your wall Cable / Satellite Set-top Box needs to be plugged into the Unit.
How come there is no
image from the Connected
External Devices?
●Check if the correct Input mode is selected by pressing S SOURCE or using CH + / –. Refer to Watching Channels
from an External Device. L p. 19
●Check the Antenna, Cable or other Input Connection to the Unit.
●When using the Component Video Connection check that the Green (Y), Blue (Pb/Cb) and Red (Pr/Cr) connectors
are connected to their corresponding colored jacks on the Unit.
When I enter a channel
number, why does it change
Automatically?
●Many Digital channels have alternate channel numbers. The Unit changes the numbers Automatically to the ones signifying
the Broadcasting Station's channel number. These basic numbers used for the previous Analog Broadcasts. (e.g., Input
Digital ch# 30 Automatically changes to Digital ch# 8.1)
Why are captions not
displayed Entirely?
Or why are captions
delayed behind the dialog?
●Closed Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialog are common for Live broadcasts. Most captioning
production companies can display a dialog to maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialog exceeds that rate, selective
editing is used to insure that the Closed Captions remain up-to date with the current TV screen dialog.
How can I set the clock? ●There is No clock function on this Unit.
My PIN code no longer
works, how can I change the
Child Lock setting?
●If a Power failure occurs for longer than 10 seconds the child lock setting is retained, but the PIN code is reset to the
default code 0000. Refer to Child and Ratings Lock. L p. 28
