ed for!  
End-of-Life Disposal  
Your new television and its packing contain materials that can  
be recycled and reused. Specialized companies can recycle  
your product to increase the amount of reusable materials and  
minimize the amounts that need to be properly disposed of.  
Your product also uses batteries that should not be thrown  
away when depleted, but should be handed in and disposed of  
as small chemical waste.  
When you replace your existing equipment, please find out  
about the local regulations regarding disposal of your old tel-  
evision, batteries, and packing materials.  
APAC—Automatic Phosphor Aging Compensation  
Stationary images, particularly black bars that outline 4:3 pro-  
gramming on a widescreen TV, could eventually leave an after-  
image on the screen. APAC automatically shifts the image, just  
enough to blur after-image retention, which reduces the effect of  
stationary images.  
Auto IntelliSense™ Focus  
Automatically adjust picture convergence at the push of a button.  
Auto IntelliSense™ Focus responds to the natural and man-made  
magnetic field conditions where the projection TV is located, so  
you can easily enjoy a well-converged picture.  
As an Energy Star® Partner, Philips Consumer  
Electronics has determined this product meets the  
Energy Star® guidelines for energy efficiency.

Dolby processing circuitry for enhanced surround sound effect  
creates the sensation of Dolby Pro Logic without the hassle of  
additional rear speakers.  
Energy Star® is a U.S. registered mark. Using products with the  
Energy Star® label can save energy. Saving energy reduces air pol-  
lution and lowers utility bills.

Why So ManyTypes of Inputs?  
HD INPUT-AV 4 Jacks  
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:  
Signals accepted: Digital only (TMDS  
[Transition Minimized Differential Signaling]  
encoded, uncompressed); DVI 480p and 1080i,  
plus audio left and right.  
Inputs available: DVI TMDS, plus audio.  
For sound, connections must be made to the  
HD INPUT-AV 4 audio inputs.  
Basic: ANTENNA IN 75. 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 ANTENNA IN  
75input. Most cable boxes, VCRs, and DVD players have this type of connection.  
OUTPUT Jacks  
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.  
Provide video and left/right audio output signals  
from the input source currently being viewed on  
screen, except for HD INPUT-AV 3 or AV 4.  
When HD INPUT-AV 3 or AV 4 is used, only  
the audio is available through the OUTPUT  
audio L/R jacks. The OUTPUT audio is at a  
fixed volume level; changing the TV volume  
does not affect them. Adjust the volume at your  
external home cinema system.

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.  
SUBWOOFER  
Provides a signal to an external powered sub-  
woofer.

the center speakers for the home-cinema sur-  
round-sound system.  
NOTE: If no audio is heard from the set, check  
to make sure the Center Channel Amp switch is  
in the INT position. This switch should be in the  
EXT position only when an external center  
channel input is connected to the Click-fit  
Terminals.

Preconnection Recommendations  
Before connecting accessory devices—VCR,  
DVD player, or HD satellite receiver, for exam-  
ple—please keep the following in mind.  
Situate the TV where  
it will not be exposed  
to heat or moisture.  
For safety, do not  
set objects on top  
of the TV.  
Positioning theTV  
• 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.  
Allow 4 to 6 inch-  
es behind the TV  
for ventilation.

• Turn off the TV and/or accessory devices  
before you connect or disconnect any cables.  
• Ensure that all antennas and cables are prop-  
erly grounded. See page 3, “Important Safety  
Instructions.”  
Protecting Accessory Devices from  
Overheating  
• Arrange accessory devices so that air can cir-  
culate 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 cor-  
rect jack.

Programming the Remote Control  
The remote control supplied with your televi-  
sion will also operate a variety of infrared-  
controlled 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

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.

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.  
c
CHECK IT OUT  
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 time-  
out setting.  
HELPFUL HINT  
If the remote control is in one of the acces-  
sory 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 theTV Remote  
After having programmed your TV remote,  
GUIDE  
INFO  
use the illustrations on pages 25-26 as a refer-  
ence to the functions of the remote buttons  
with accessory devices.  
POWER  
SELECT  
POWER  
HIGH DEFINITION  
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:  
Point the front of the remote  
toward the front of the  
accessory device, then press  
the necessary buttons to per-  
form the functions you  
desire. Refer to pages 25-26  
to see the functions of the  
buttons in the respective  
accessory modes.  
2
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 acces-  
sory 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.  
®
To backlight the  
remote control but-  
tons, press and hold  
the Select button for  
two seconds. If you do not press  
any remote buttons for five sec-  
onds, the backlight switches off.  
Each time you press a remote but-  
ton 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.  
Point the front of the remote toward  
the front of the accessory device, then  
press the button to perform the desired  
function.

HELPFUL HINT  
If the remote control is in one of the accesso-  
ry 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.  
c
CHECK IT OUT  
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 time-  
out setting.

Using Active ControlPlus+  
Active Control™ Plus+ monitors incoming  
video signals from the Tuner, AV1, AV2, and  
Side inputs and adjusts key picture settings  
for best picture quality. In addition to measur-  
ing picture noise, this feature uses an ambient  
light sensor (located on the front of the TV)  
to adjust the picture settings according to  
viewing conditions in the room. When you  
choose to turn Active Control™ Plus+ on,  
you have the options Minimum, Medium, or  
Maximum. Maximum is the recommended  
option.

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 stan-  
dard and more HD broadcasts become avail-  
able, you will be able to see the broadcasts as  
they were intended—in 16:9 format.

HELPFUL HINT  
The term aspect ratio refers to the relation-  
ship 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 propor-  
tionally truer to the formats in which  
Movie expand 16:9

Adjusting the DeltaVolume  
The volume level coming from channel to

channel and broadcast to broadcast can vary  
widely. The Delta Volume control will allow  
the volume to be increased for channels with  
weaker audio signals while allowing other

changed, it will affect only the currently  
tuned channel. The TV will store the setting  
for that channel in its memory and remember  
it when the channel is tuned again.

CARE AND CLEANING OF THE TV  
WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on theTV 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 score-  
boards; 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.  
Be sure the TV is  
unplugged before  
WARNING  
To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the  
TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet  
before cleaning.  
cleaning it.  
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 deter-  
gent. Wring out the cloth and wipe the cab-  
inet surfaces clean. Then use a clean, dry  
cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.  
Use a nonscratching duster.  
Soak the wiping cloth in  
cool, clean water and mild  
detergent. Then ring the  
cloth out before using.  
PHILIPS  
• 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.  
Don’t use chemicals  
on or near the TV.  
PHILIPS  
• The television contains plastic parts. DO  
NOT use benzine, thinners, or other chemi-  
cals 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.  
Avoid wearing  
jewelry that may  
scratch 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.

• Make sure you have made connections correctly.  
You see scrolling images.  
• Make sure you have made connections correctly.  
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 receiv-  
ing 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.

• Make sure you point the remote directly at the TV or accessory device you want to operate.  
• If you want to operate the TV, make sure the remote is in TV mode. If you want to operate an accessory device, program the  
remote to operate the device if necessary and make sure the remote is in the appropriate mode for the device.  
• 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  
PHILIPS TELEVISION

One Year Free Service on Parts  
30 days Free Service on Television Screen  
This product can be repaired in-home.  
WHO IS COVERED?  
MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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:  
(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.)  
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, acci-  
dent, 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.  
(In Canada, this warranty is given in lieu of all other warranties. No  
other warranties are expressed or implied, including any implied war-  
ranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Philips is  
not liable under any circumstances for any direct, indirect, special, inci-  
dental or consequential damages, howsoever incurred, even if notified  
of the possibility of such damages.)  
incidental or consequential damages resulting from the product.  
(Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequen-  
tial damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This  
includes, but is not limited to, prerecorded material, whether copy-  
righted or not copyrighted.)
