Screen care  
Disposal of your old product and  
batteries  
Avoid stationary images as much as  
possible. Stationary images are images  
that remain on-screen for extended  
periods of time. Examples include:  
on-screen menus, black bars and time  
displays. If you must use stationary  
images, reduce screen contrast and  
brightness to avoid screen damage.  
Unplug the TV before cleaning.  
Clean the TV and frame with a soft,  
damp cloth. Never use substances such as  
alcohol, chemicals or household cleaners  
on the TV.  
Risk of damage to the TV screen! Never  
touch, push, rub or strike the screen with  
any object.  
To avoid deformations and color fading,  
wipe off water drops as soon as possible.  
Your product is designed and manufactured  
with high quality materials and components,  
which can be recycled and reused.

7 Troubleshooting  
TheTV is on, but there is no picture:  
Check that the antenna is properly  
connected to the TV.  
Check that the correct device is selected  
as the TV source.  
This section describes commonly encountered  
issues and accompanying solutions.  
There is sound but no picture:  
GeneralTV issues  
Check that the picture settings are  
correctly set.  
TheTV does not switch on:  
There is poorTV reception from an antenna  
connection:  
Disconnect the power cable from the  
power outlet. Wait for one minute then  
reconnect it.  
Check that the antenna is properly  
connected to the TV.  
Check that the power cable is securely  
connected.  
Loud speakers, unearthed audio devices,  
neon lights, high buildings and other large  
objects can influence reception quality.  
If possible, try to improve the reception  
quality by changing the antenna direction  
or moving devices away from the TV.  
If reception on only one channel is poor,  
fine tune this channel.  
The remote control is not working properly:  
Check that the remote control batteries  
are correctly inserted according to the  
+/- orientation.  
Replace the remote control batteries if  
they are flat or weak.  
Clean the remote control and TV sensor  
lens.

devices:  
The standby light on theTV blinks red:  
Check that the devices are connected  
properly.

power outlet. Wait until the TV cools  
down before reconnecting the power  
cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact  
Philips Consumer Care.  
Check that the picture settings are  
correctly set.  
TheTV menu is in the wrong language.  
Change the TV menu to your preferred  
language.  
When turning theTV on/off/to standby, you  
hear a creaking sound from theTV chassis:  
No action is required. The creaking sound  
is normal expansion and contraction of  
the TV as it cools and warms up. This  
does not impact performance.
