Satellite Installation
About Installing Satellites
Up to 4 Satellites
You can install up to 4 satellites (4 LNBs) on this TV.
Select the exact number of satellites you wish to
install at the start of the installation. This will speed up
the installation.
Unicable
You can use a Unicable system to connect the
antenna dish to the TV. You can select Unicable for 1
or for 2 satellites at the start of the installation.
Start the Installation
Make sure your satellite dish is connected correctly
and is perfectly aligned before you start the
installation.
To start the satellite installation…
1 - Press , select All Settings and press OK.
2 - Select Channels > Satellite Installation. Enter
your PIN code if necessary.
3 - Select Search for Satellite.
4 - Select Search. TV will search for satellites.
5 - Select Configure. The TV shows the current
satellite installation setup.
If you want to change this setup, select Settings.
If you don't want to change the setup, select Search.
Go to step 7.
6 - In Installation System, select the number of
satellites you want to install or select one of the
Unicable systems. When you select Unicable, you
can choose the User Band Numbers and enter the
User Band Frequencies for each tuner. You can find
user band in unicable router. In some countries, you
can adjust some expert settings for each LNB
in More Settings.
7 - The TV will search for the satellites available on
the alignment of your antenna dish. This may take a
few minutes. If a satellite is found, its name and
reception strength are shown on screen.
8 - When the TV found the satellites you need,
select Install.
9 - If a satellite offers Channel Packages, the TV will
show the available packages for that satellite. Select
the package you need.
10 - To store the satellite setup and installed
channels and radio stations, select Done.
Satellite Installation Settings
The satellite installation settings are preset according
your country. These settings determine how the TV
searches and installs satellites and its channels. You
can always change these settings.
To change the satellite installation settings…
1 - Start the satellite installation.
2 - On the screen where you can start searching for
satellites, select Settings and press OK.
3 - Select the number of satellites you want to install
or select one of the Unicable systems. When you
select Unicable, you can choose the User Band
Numbers and enter the User Band Frequencies for
each tuner.
4 - When you're done, select Next and press OK.
5 - On the Settings menu, press OK to return to the
screen to start searching for satellites.
Homing Transponder and LNB
In some countries, you can adjust the expert settings
for homing transponder and each LNB. Only use or
change these settings when a normal installation fails.
If you have non-standard satellite equipment, you
can use these settings to overrule the standard
settings. Some providers might give you some
transponder or LNB valeus which you can enter here.
Satellite CAMs
If you use a CAM – a Conditional Access Module with
a smart card – to watch satellite channels, we
recommend to do the satellite installation with the
CAM inserted in the TV.
Most CAMs are used to descramble channels.
Newest generation CAMs (CI+ 1.3 with Operator
Profile), can install all the satellite channels by
themselves on your TV. The CAM will invite you to
install its satellite(s) and channels. These CAMs not
only install and descramble the channels but also
handle regular channel updates.
Channel Packages
Satellite operators can offer channel packages that
bundle free channels (free-to-air) and offer a sorting
that suits a country. Some satellites offer subscription
packages - a collection of channels you pay for.
12
Unicable Setup
The Unicable System
You can use a Single Cable system, MDU or Unicable
system to connect the antenna dish to the TV. A
Single Cable system uses one cable to connect the
satellite dish to all satellite tuners in its system. A
Single Cable system is typically used in apartment
buildings. If you use a Unicable system, the TV will ask
you to assign a user band number and corresponding
frequency during the installation. You can install 1 or 2
satellites with Unicable on this TV.
If you notice some missing channels after a Unicable
installation, another installation might have been
done at the same moment on the Unicable system.
Do the installation again to install the missing
channels.
User Band Number
In a Unicable system, each connected satellite tuner
must be numbered (e.g. 0, 1, 2 or 3 etc.).
You can find the available user bands and their
number on the Unicable switchbox. User band is
sometimes shortened as UB. There are Unicable
switchboxes that offer 4 or 8 user bands. If you select
Unicable in the settings, the TV will ask you to assign
the unique user band number for each built-in
satellite tuners. A satellite tuner cannot have the same
user band number as another satellite tuner in the
Unicable system.
User Band Frequency
Next to the unique user band number, the built-in
satellite receiver needs the frequency of the selected
user band number. These frequencies are mostly
shown next to the user band number on a Unicable
switchbox.
Manual Channel Update
You can always start an channel update yourself.
To start a channel update manually…
1 - Press , select All Settings and press OK.
2 - Select Channels > Satellite Installation.
3 - Select Search for Channels.
4 - Select Update Channels. The TV will start
updating. The update may take a few minutes.
5 - Follow the instructions on screen. The update
may take a few minutes.
6 - Select Finish and press OK.
Add a Satellite
You can add an additional satellite to your current
satellite installation. The installed satellites and their
channels remain untouched. Some satellite operators
do not allow adding a satellite.
The additional satellite should be seen as an extra, it
is not your main satellite subscription or not the main
satellite of which you use its channel package.
Typically, you would add a 4th satellite when you
have 3 satellites already installed. If you have 4
satellites installed, you might consider removing one

Problems
The TV cannot find the satellites I want or the TV
installs the same satellite twice
• Make sure that the correct number of satellites is set
in Settings at the start of the installation. You can set
the TV to search for One, Two or 3/4 satellites.
A dual head LNB cannot find a second satellite
• If the TV finds one satellite but cannot find a second
one, turn the dish a few degrees. Align the dish to get
the strongest signal on the first satellite. Check the
signal strength indicator of the first satellite on screen.
With the first satellite set at the strongest signal, select
Search again to find the second satellite.
• Make sure the settings are set to Two Satellites.
Changing the installation settings did not solve my
problem
• All settings, satellites and channels are only stored
at the end of the installation when you finish.
All satellite channels are gone
• If you use a Unicable system, make sure you
assigned two unique user band numbers for both
built-in tuners in the Unicable settings. It might be
that another satellite receiver in your Unicable system
is using the same user band number.
Some satellite channels seem to have disappeared
from the channel list
• If some channels seem to be gone or displaced, the
broadcaster might have changed the transponder
location of these channels. To restore the channel
positions in the channel list, you can try an update of
the channel package.
I cannot remove a satellite
• Subscription packages do not allow removing a
satellite. To remove the satellite, you have to do a
complete installation again and select another
package.
Sometimes the reception is poor
• Check if the satellite dish is solidly mounted. Strong
winds can move the dish.
• Snow and rain can degrade the reception.

Connect Devices
6.1
About Connections
Connectivity Guide
Always connect a device to the TV with the highest
quality connection available. Also, use good quality
cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and
sound.
When you connect a device, the TV recognizes its
type and gives each device a correct type name. You
can change the type name if you wish. If a correct
type name for a device is set, the TV automatically
switches to the ideal TV settings when you switch to
this device in the Sources menu.
If you need help to connect several devices to the TV,
you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The
guide offers information on how to connect and
which cables to use.
Go to www.connectivityguide.philips.com
Antenna Port
If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or
Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the
antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or
Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the
antenna and the Set-top box can send possible
additional channels to the Recorder to record.
6.2
HDMI Ports
HDMI Quality
An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound
quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio
signals. Use an HDMI cable for TV signal.
For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed
HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer
than 5 m.
If a device connected with HDMI is not working
correctly, check if a different HDMI Ultra HD setting
can solve this problem. For more information,
in Help, select Keywords and look up HDMI Ultra
HD.
Copy protection
HDMI cables support HDCP 2.2 (High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection
signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc
or Blu-ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital
Rights Management).
HDMI ARC
All of the HDMI connections on the TV have HDMI
ARC (Audio Return Channel).
If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS),
also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to any
of the HDMI connections on this TV. With the HDMI
ARC connection, you do not need to connect the
extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV
picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection
combines both signals.
You can use any HDMI connection on this TV to
connect the HTS but ARC is only available for 1
device/connection at a time.
24
HDMI MHL
With HDMI MHL, you can send what you see on your
Android smartphone or tablet to a TV screen.
The HDMI 4 connection on this TV
incorporates MHL 2.0 (Mobile High-Definition Link).
This wired connection offers great stability and
bandwidth, low latency, no wireless interference and
good quality sound reproduction. On top of that, the
MHL connection will charge the battery of your
smartphone or tablet. Although connected, your
mobile device will not be charging when the TV is on
standby.
Inform yourself about what passive MHL cable is
suited for your mobile device. In particular, with the
HDMI connector for the TV on one side, the type of
connector you need to connect to your smartphone
or tablet.

Troubleshooting
Switch On and Remote Control
The TV does not switch on
• Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet.
Wait for one minute then reconnect it.
• Make sure that the power cable is securely
connected.
Creaking sound at startup or switch off
When you are switching the TV on, off or to standby,
you hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis. The
creaking sound is due to the normal expansion and
contraction of the TV as it cools and warms up. This
does not affect performance.
TV does not respond to the remote control
The TV requires some time to start up. During this
time, the TV does not respond to the remote control
or TV controls. This is normal behaviour.
If the TV continues to be unresponsive to the remote
control, you can check if the remote control is working
by means of a mobile phone camera. Put the phone
in camera mode and point the remote control to the
camera lens. If you press any key on the remote
control and you notice the infra red LED flicker
through the camera, the remote control is working.
The TV needs to be checked.
If you do not notice the flickering, the remote control
might be broken or its batteries are low.
This method of checking the remote control is not
possible with remote controls which are wirelessly
paired with the TV.
The TV goes back to standby after showing the
Philips startup screen
When the TV is disconnected and reconnected to the
power supply in standby mode, the startup screen is
displayed and then the TV returns to standby mode.
This is normal behaviour. To switch on the TV from
standby mode again, press on the remote control
or on the TV.
The standby light keeps on blinking
Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet.
Wait 5 minutes before you reconnect the power
cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact Philips TV
Consumer Care.

connected device.
Computer picture is not stable
Make sure that your PC uses the supported resolution
and refresh rate.
Sound
No sound or poor sound quality
If no audio signal is detected, the TV automatically
switches the audio output off — this does not indicate
malfunction.
• Make sure that the sound settings are correctly set.
• Make sure that all cables are properly connected.
• Make sure that the volume is not muted or set to
zero.
• Make sure that the TV audio output is connected to
the audio input on the Home Theatre System.
Sound should be heard from the HTS speakers.
• Some devices may require you to manually enable
HDMI audio output. If HDMI audio is already enabled,
but you still do not hear audio, try changing the digital
audio format of the device to PCM (Pulse Code
Modulation). Refer to the documentation
accompanying your device for instructions.
HDMI and USB
HDMI
• Note that HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) support can delay the time taken for a TV
to display content from an HDMI device.
• If the TV does not recognise the HDMI device and
no picture is displayed, switch the source from one
device to another and back again.
• If the picture and sound of a device connected
to HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 is distorted, connect the
device to HDMI 3 or HDMI 4 on this TV.
• If the picture and sound of a device connected with
HDMI is distorted, check if a different HDMI Ultra
HD setting can solve this problem. For more
information, in Help, select Keywords and
look up HDMI Ultra HD.
• If there are intermittent sound disruptions, make
sure that output settings from the HDMI device are
correct.
• If you use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or HDMI-to-DVI
cable, make sure that an additional audio cable is
connected to AUDIO IN (mini-jack only), if available.
HDMI EasyLink does not work
• Make sure that your HDMI devices are HDMI-CEC
compatible. EasyLink features only work with devices
that are HDMI-CEC compatible.
No volume icon shown
• When an HDMI-CEC audio device is connected and
you use the TV Remote Control to adjust the volume
level from the device, this behaviour is normal.
Photos, videos and music from a USB device do not
show
• Make sure that the USB storage device is set to Mass
Storage Class compliant, as described in the storage
device's documentation.
• Make sure that the USB storage device is compatible
with the TV.
• Make sure that the audio and picture file formats are
supported by the TV.
Choppy playback of USB files
• The transfer performance of the USB storage device
may limit the data transfer rate to the TV which
causes poor playback.
88
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi network not found or distorted
• Microwave ovens, DECT phones or other Wi-Fi
802.11b/g/n devices in your proximity might disturb
the wireless network.
• We recommend using the 5 GHz frequency
(802.11ac) on your router when your TV is placed in
the neighborhood of many other wireless routers
(apartments, etc.).
• Make sure that the firewalls in your network allow
access to the TV's wireless connection.
• For easy installation of your wireless network, do not
hide the name of your router by switching off the
SSID broadcast.
• If the wireless network does not work properly in
your home, you can use the wired network
installation.
Wi-Fi network connection is slow
• Use a high-speed (broadband) Internet connection
for your router.
• Limit the amount of devices that use the same
router.
• Look in your wireless router's user manual for
information on indoor range, transfer rate and other
factors of signal quality.
DHCP
• If the connection fails, you can check the DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) setting of the
router. DHCP should be switched on.
Bluetooth
Unable to pair
• Make sure the device is in pairing mode. Read the
user manual of the device.
• Keep the router and wireless speaker as close to the
TV as possible.
• Places with a high amount of wireless activity -
apartments with lots of wireless routers - can hamper
the wireless connection.
• Trying to pair several devices with the TV at the
same time, may not work.
Bluetooth lost connection
• Always position the wireless speaker within a range
of 5 meters from the TV.
Bluetooth Audio and Video syncronisation
• Before you purchase a wireless Bluetooth speaker,
inform yourself about its quality of Audio to Video
syncronisation, commonly called 'lip sync'. Not all
Bluetooth devices perform correctly. Ask your dealer
for advice.

Before you connect the TV to the power outlet,
ensure that the power voltage matches the value
printed on the back of the TV. Never connect the TV
to the power outlet if the voltage is different.
Risk of Injury to Children
Follow these precautions to prevent the TV from
toppling over and causing injury to children:
• Never place the TV on a surface covered by a cloth
or other material that can be pulled away.
• Ensure that no part of the TV hangs over the edge of
the mounting surface.
• Never place the TV on tall furniture, such as a
bookcase, without anchoring both the furniture and
TV to the wall or a suitable support.
• Teach children about the dangers of climbing on
furniture to reach the TV.
Risk of swallowing batteries !
The remote control may contain coin-type batteries
which can easily be swallowed by small children.
Keep these batteries out of reach of children at all
times.
Risk of Overheating
Never install the TV in a confined space. Always leave
a space of at least 10 cm or 4 inches around the TV
for ventilation. Ensure curtains or other objects never
cover the ventilation slots on the TV.
Lightning Storms
Disconnect the TV from the power outlet and antenna
before lightning storms.
During lightning storms, never touch any part of the
TV, power cord or antenna cable.
Risk of Hearing Damage
Avoid using earphones or headphones at high
volumes or for prolonged periods of time.
Low Temperatures
If the TV is transported in temperatures below 5°C or
41°F, unpack the TV and wait until the TV temperature
reaches room temperature before connecting the TV
to the power outlet.
91
Humidity
In rare occasions, depending on temperature and
humidity, minor condensation can occur on the inside
of the TV glass front (on some models). To prevent
this, do not expose the TV to direct sunlight, heat or
extreme humidity. If condensation occurs, it will
disappear spontaneously while the TV is playing for a
few hours.
The condensation moisture will not harm the TV or
cause malfunction.
25.2
Screen Care
• Never touch, push, rub or strike the screen with any
object.
• Unplug the TV before cleaning.
• Clean the TV and frame with a soft damp cloth and
wipe gently. Avoid touching the Ambilight LEDs on
the backside of the TV. Never use substances such as
alcohol, chemicals or household cleaners on the TV.
• To avoid deformations and colour fading, wipe off
water drops as quickly as possible.
• Avoid stationary images as much as possible.
Stationary images are images that remain onscreen
for extended periods of time. Stationary images
include onscreen menus, black bars, time displays,
etc. If you must use stationary images, reduce screen
contrast and brightness to avoid screen damage.
