PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

Philips HD Pix Optics System answers the demand for extreme resolution HD with cutting-edge processing and display tech-

nology, including microphosphor CRTs, hybrid projection lenses, first-surface mirrors, fine-pitched lenticular screens, and Philips

wideband amplifier.

Auto IntelliSense Focus Automatically adjusts the picture convergence at the push of a key. After reviewing a special test pat-

tern, optical sensors send position information to the controller, which then corrects the picture. Auto IntelliSense^®Focus responds to

the natural and man-made magnetic field conditions where the projection TV is located, so you always enjoy the best possible pic-

ture.

100Hz Digital Scan eliminates picture flickering and line jitter, offering a stable picture for relaxed viewing (no eye strain). The

100Hz digital scan option can be selected in the onscreen menu.

Progressive Scan doubles the number of visible picture lines per field by displaying all picture frame lines at once. This mini-

mizes the visibility of the scan lines. The progressive scan option can be selected in the onscreen menu.

High-definition Inputs allow you to connect digital equipment with 1080i and 480p signals for 60Hz and 576p signals for 50Hz. The

AV4 sockets are for YPbPr or RGB+HV sync connections, plus audio. The AV5 sockets are for RGB (or YPbPr with adaptor) DB15 con-

nections, plus audio.

ComponentVideo Inputs support advanced video input—such as DVD video—for superb colour performance.

Active Control™continuously measures and corrects all incoming signals with automatic digital noise reduction and auto sharp-

ness to provide the best possible picture.

Automatic Phosphor Aging Compensation (APAC™) functions like a screen saver for your TV. Nonmoving images

can be bad for a television screen. If a video image remains stationary, it can eventually leave a permanent after-image. Video games

and the stationary black bars around some movies are examples of sources of concern. Philips APAC technology addresses this prob-

lem. Periodically, APAC automatically shifts your television picture in increments that are very small and yet large enough to blur

image retention that can lead to screen burn. Coupled with the Philips Auto Screen Format feature, APAC helps provide you protec-

tion from the dreaded screen burn.

Protective Screen Filter (if provided; availability varies) gives the best possible picture while still protecting your investment.

Specifically formulated by Philips for HD displays, this protective screen filter helps prevent accidental damage to the delicate front lenticu-

lar screen.

Dolby*Virtual Surround uses two speakers to simulate the surround effect produced by a multichannel system.

Digital Comb Filter makes the finest colour details purer and sharper. It eliminates disturbing cross-colour (Moiré) effects

between different colours that you normally see with striped clothing worn on camera. The digital comb filter works by electronical-

ly separating the chroma (colour) and luminance (black and white) components of the TV signal, preventing cross-colour interfer-

ence.

INSTALLING THE TV

The major benefit of this projection tel-

evision is its large viewing screen. To

see the large screen at its best, test vari-

ous locations in the room to find the

optimal spot for viewing.

15 cm

Be sure to allow a minimum of 15 cm

of space around the TV.

Do not place

the TV in

direct

sunlight or

near a heat-

ing appliance.

To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color

changes, and increased chance of set

failure, do not place the TV where tem-

peratures can become excessively

hot—for example, in direct sunlight or

near a heating appliance.

15 cm

Magnetic fields, such as those of exter-

nal speakers, may cause the picture to

distort if the speakers are placed too

close to the television. Move the mag-

netic field source away from the TV

until there is no picture distortion.

ANTENNA IN 75Ω

Socket on the rear of

the TV

Insert the aerial plug firmly into the

ANTENNA IN 75Ω socket at the rear

of the set.

et. Refer to the back of the TV set for

the correct operation voltage. Consult

your local dealer if your main supply is

different. To prevent damaging the

mains (AC) cord, which could cause

hazard, do not place the TV on the

cord.

Remove the cover of the battery com-

partment on the remote control. Insert

the two batteries supplied

(Type R6-1.5V).

The batteries supplied do not contain

the heavy metals mercury and cadmi-

um. Nevertheless, in many countries

exhausted batteries may not be dis-

posed of with your household waste.

USING THE MENUS : PICTURE

Using Auto IntelliSense

Your projection TV has three color projection tubes : one for red, one for

green, and one for blue. When mixed in proper proportion, the beams of

light coming from the tubes can produce any color. To create a clear pic-

ture, however, these color beams must be precisely aligned. This align-

ment is called convergence. Bumps and vibrations, moving the set, or the

presence of magnetic fields can cause the color beams to become improp-

erly aligned, or misconverged, resulting in a fuzzy picture. Using the

Auto IntelliSense^®feature, you can automatically adjust convergence in

20 seconds or less.

Depending on the TV channel, teletext is transmitted in different sys-

tems. The colours used in the options line correspond with the colour

keys of your remote control.

mission and of the pages referred to in the options line at the bot-

tom of the teletext screen;

• a habit watcher list : frequently used pages are put automatically

CARE, CLEANING,AND TIPS

WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on theTV Screen :

Do not leave stationary or “letterbox” 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 the same stationary images more than

15 percent of your total viewing in any one week. Sources of stationary images may be DVD discs, laser discs, video games, CD-i

discs, videotapes, digital television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, and others. Here are some exam-

ples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter others in your viewing) :

• DVD menus—listings of DVD disc content

• “Letterbox” black borders—black bars shown along the edges of the picture when a widescreen (16:9) movie is played on TV

• Video-game images and scoreboards

• Television station logos—present a problem if they are bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely 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 for the tubes to age at an even rate. The result will be a TV picture that is evenly bright

over the entire screen.

PLACEMENT OF THE TV

• See page 4.

CLEANING

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

• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster to keep the TV clean.

• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive.

Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes

when cleaning.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool, clear water and a mild soap or

detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back cover of the set.

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

cabinet finish.

TIPS

• Do not leave your set on standby mode for a prolonged period of time. Switch the set off to allow it to be demagnetised. A

demagnetised set supports good picture quality.

• Do not shift or move the set around when it is switched on. Unevenness in colour in some parts of the screen may occur.

END-OF-LIFE DISPOSAL OF THE TV

Philips is paying much attention to making its products environmentally friendly. Your new TV contains materials that can be recy-

cled and reused. Specialised companies can dismantle your discarded TV at the end of its life, concentrating on the reusable materi-

als and minimising the amount of materials to be disposed. Please be sure to dispose of your old TV according to local regulations.

DISPOSAL OF EXHAUSTED BATTERIES

The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury and cadmium. Nevertheless, in many countries exhausted batteries

may not be disposed of with your household waste. Please ensure you dispose of exhausted batteries according to local regulations.

BEFORE CALLING SERVICE

What to do

Symptom

TV remote control does not

work

•

Check that the batteries are installed correctly.

Replace the batteries, if necessary.

Clean the remote control and the remote-sensor window on the TV.

Be no farther than 6 meters from the TV when using the remote control and aim the remote

toward the TV’s remote-sensor window.

•

If the remote still will not work, use the keys on the TV.

•

Check that the TV’s power cord is plugged into the mains socket. If there is still no power, discon-

nect the plug. Wait for 60 seconds and reinsert the plug and then switch on the TV again.

See if the outlet is controlled by a wall switch.

No power

No picture

•

If you are using an AC power strip, be sure the fuse on the power strip is not blown.

•

Check the antenna connection at the rear of the TV to see if it is properly connected to the TV

input terminal.

•

The broadcast station may be experiencing difficulty. Try another channel.

Adjust the contrast and brightness settings or select another picture setting with the Smart Picture

key on the remote control.

•

If using peripheral equipment through the A/V inputs, be sure it is properly connected.

Be sure you have selected the correct signal source for viewing.

If you are attempting to view a picture from a progressive-scan-capable DVD player connected to

the AV4 or AV5 sockets, be sure you have switched the DVD player to progressive-scan mode.

If you are using an HD receiver, be sure its output is set correctly (to HD or SD), based on the

connection to the TV you have made.

•

Increase the volume.

Good picture but no sound

Check that the TV is not muted; press the H key on the remote control.

When no signal is detected, the TV automatically switches off the sound. This is proper operation

and does not indicate a malfunction.

•

Check the transmission system’s sound settings on the set.

Adjust the contrast and brightness setting or select another picture setting with the Smart Picture

key on the remote control.

Check the transmission system’s colour settings on this set.

Good sound but poor colour or

no picture

•

Poor picture quality sometimes occurs when an S-VHS camera or camcorder has been connected

to the side panel (AV3) of the TV when another peripheral is connected to AV1 or AV2 simultane-

ously. In this case, switch off one of the other peripherals.

Poor picture

Snowish picture and noise

Colour patch (unevenness)

•

Check the antenna connection.

•

Switch off the TV by the mains power key. Wait for 20 minutes before switching on again.

Be sure you have made connections correctly.

If you have connected digital equipment to the AV4 or AV5 sockets, check the colour-space setting

on the equipment or TV and change the setting on either if necessary.

Check to be sure the TV is not placed too near speakers or magnetic objects.

Adjust the TV’s convergence.

•

This may be caused by electrical interference from appliances such as hair dryers or vacuum

cleaners or other sources such as neon lights. Turn off the appliance or move the TV.

Horizontal dotted lines

High-rise building or hills may be obstructing reception. Try using a highly directional antenna to

improve the picture.

Double images or “ghost” images

One white line across the screen

Switch the TV off immediately and consult a qualified service person.

•

This could be due to antenna siting or reflected signal.

Switch over to “MONO” by pressing the I-II key on the remote control.

NICAM sound distortion

(crackling noise)

If your problem is not solved, switch the TV off and then back on again once. Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself. Check with

your dealer or call a TV technician.
