or into the TV, disconnect the TV from
the power outlet immediately. Contact
Philips Consumer Care to have the TV
checked before use.
Never place the TV, remote control or

times.
Never insert objects into the ventilation
slots or other openings on the TV.
Never expose the remote control or
batteries to rain, water or excessive
heat.

Two people are required to lift and
carry a TV that weighs more than 25kg
or 55lbs.
When stand mounting the TV, use only
the supplied stand. Secure the stand to
the TV tightly. Place the TV on a flat,
level surface that can support the
combined weight of the TV and the
stand.
When wall mounting the TV, use only a
wall mount that can support the weight
of the TV. Secure the wall mount to a
wall that can support the combined
weight of the TV and wall mount. TP
Vision Netherlands B.V. bears no
responsibility for improper wall
mounting that result in accident, injury
or damage.
If you need to store the TV,
disassemble the stand from the TV.
Never lay the TV on its back with the
stand installed.
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.

both the furniture and TV to the wall
or a suitable support.
Educate children about the dangers of
climbing on furniture to reach the TV.
Risk of swallowing batteries!

6 Troubleshooting
General issues
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.
The TV does not respond to remote
control or front controls when switched
on:
The TV requires some time to start up.
During this time, the TV does not respond
to the remote control or front controls. This
is normal behaviour.
When you are turning the TV on, off or to
standby, you hear a creaking sound from
the TV chassis:
No action is required. 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.
When the TV is in standby, a startup splash
screen is displayed, then returns to standby
mode:
This is normal behaviour. When the TV is
disconnected and reconnected to the power
supply, the startup screen is displayed at the
next startup.
To switch on the TV from standby, press
on the remote control or press any key on
the TV.
The standby light on the TV blinks red:
Disconnect the power cable from the power
outlet. Wait until the TV cools down before
you reconnect the power cable. If the
blinking reoccurs, contact Philips Consumer
Care.
You forgot the 4-digit code to unlock the
channel blocking feature (child lock):
Enter ‘8888’.
The TV or Smart TV* menu is in the wrong
language:
Change the menu to your preferred
language.

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 speaker setting
is selected. Press ADJUST, select
[Speakers], and then select TV.
Make sure that the TV audio output is
connected to the audio input on the
HDMI-CEC enabled or EasyLink
compliant home theatre device. Sound
should be heard from the home theatre
speakers.
Some devices may require you to
manually enable HDMI audio output. If
HDMI audio is already enabled but you
still cannot 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.
There is a picture but the sound quality is
poor:
Make sure that the sound settings are
correctly set.
There is a picture but sound comes from
one speaker only:
Make sure that sound balance is set to the
centre.
Connection issues
There are problems with HDMI devices:
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 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 L/R or AUDIO IN (mini-jack
only).
You cannot use EasyLink features:
Make sure that your HDMI devices are
HDMI-CEC compatible. EasyLink features
only work with devices that are HDMI-CEC
compatible.
If an HDMI-CEC compliant audio device is
connected to the TV and the TV does not
display any mute or volume icon when the
volume is muted, increased or decreased:
When a HDMI-CEC audio device is
connected this behaviour is normal.
USB device content is not displayed:
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.
Audio and picture files on your USB
storage device do not play or display
smoothly:
The transfer performance of the USB
storage device may limit the data transfer
rate to the TV which causes poor playback.
