EasyLink Remote Control  
Use Philips EasyLink  
EasyLink Remote Control allows you to  
control HDMI-CEC compliant devices using  
your TV remote control.  
Enable or disable EasyLink  
NonPublish  
To enable EasyLink Remote Control, see  
Connect the TV > Use Philips EasyLink >  
Enable or disable EasyLink Remote Control  
Philips EasyLink provides several features that  
enable you to control devices that are  
connected via HDMI. Connected devices  
must support the HDMI-CEC standard, and  
must be properly configured for EasyLink to  
work.  
Pixel Plus Link  
Connected Philips EasyLink devices may  
apply their own picture quality processing to  
a video, before streaming it to the TV. This  
may interfere with the image processing of  
the TV. Enable Pixel Plus Link to discard  
picture quality processing from connected  
Philips EasyLink devices.  
Note: HDMI-CEC functionality is known by  
other names on other brands. Some  
examples are Anynet (Samsung), Aquos Link  
(Sharp) or BRAVIA Sync (Sony). Not all  
brands are fully compatible with Philips  
EasyLink.

EasyLink to output TV audio directly to a  
connected audio device, without the need  
for an additional digital audio cable.  
Be sure that the device is HDMI-CEC and  
ARC compliant, and that the TV is  
connected to the device using a HDMI cable  
attached to HDMI ARC connectors.

For more information, see Set up the TV >  
Change language settings > Menu language.  
If you cannot resolve your problem, refer to  
the FAQs for this TV at  
When turning the TV on/off/to standby,  
you hear a creaking sound from the TV  
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.  
If the problem remains unresolved, contact  
Philips Consumer Care in your country as  
listed in the leaflet accompanying your  
product.  
Make a note of your TV model and serial  
number before you contact Philips. These  
numbers are printed on the back of the TV  
and on the packaging.  
Warning: Do not attempt to repair the TV  
yourself. This may cause severe injury,  
irreparable damage to your TV or void  
your warranty.  
When the TV is in standby mode, a startup  
splash screen is displayed, then returns to  
standby mode:  
This is normal behavior. The startup screen  
is displayed when the TV is disconnected  
from the mains and reconnected.  
To switch on the TV from standby, press  
on the remote control or press any key on  
the side of the TV.  
General TV issues  
The TV does not switch on:  
Disconnect the power cable from the  
power outlet. Wait for one minute then  
reconnect it.  
Check that the power cable is securely  
connected.  
Check that the power switch at the  
bottom/back of the TV is switched on.  
TV channel issues  
Previously installed channels do not appear  
in the channel list:  
Check that the correct channel list is  
selected.  
No digital channels were found during the  
installation:  
Check that the TV supports SBTVD-T or  
SATVD-T in your country. See the listed  
countries on the back of the TV.  
The TV does not respond to remote  
control or side controls when switched on  
The TV requires some time to start up.  
During this time, the TV will not respond to  
the remote control or side controls. This is  
normal behavior.  
Picture issues  
The standby light on the TV blinks red:  
Disconnect the power cable from the power  
outlet. Wait until the TV cools down before  
reconnecting the power cable. If the blinking  
reoccurs, contact Philips Consumer Care.  
The TV is on, but there is no picture or the  
picture is distorted:  
Check that the antenna is properly  
connected to the TV.  
Check that the correct device is  
selected as the TV source.  
Check that the external device or  
source is properly connected.  
EN  
53  
There is sound but no picture:  
Check that the picture settings are correctly  
set.  
Check that your PC uses the supported  
resolution and refresh rate.  
Set the TV picture format to unscaled.  
There is poor TV reception from an  
antenna connection:  
Check that the antenna is properly  
connected to the TV.  
Sound issues  
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.  
There is picture but no sound from the TV:  
If no audio signal is detected, the TV  
automatically switches the audio output off  
this does not indicate malfunction.  
Check that all cables are properly  
connected.  
Check that the volume is not set to 0.  
Check that the sound is not muted.  
Check that the TV speakers setting is  
on in the sound menu.  
If reception on only one channel is  
poor, fine tune this channel.  
There is poor picture quality from  
connected devices:  
Check that the TV audio output is  
connected to the audio input on the  
HDMI CEC enabled/EasyLink-compliant  
HTS device. Sound should be heard  
from the HTS speakers.  
Check that the devices are connected  
properly.  
Check that the picture settings are  
correctly set.  
The TV did not save your picture settings:  
Check that the TV location is set to the  
home setting. This mode offers you the  
flexibility to change and save settings.  
There is picture but sound quality is poor:  
Check that the sound settings are correctly  
set.  
There is picture but sound comes from  
one speaker only:  
Verify that sound balance is set to the  
center.  
The picture does not fit the screen; it is  
too big or too small:  
Try using a different picture format.  
The picture position is incorrect:  
Picture signals from some devices may not fit  
the screen correctly. Check the signal output  
of the device.  
HDMI connection issues  
There are problems with HDMI devices:  
The picture from broadcasts is scrambled:  
You may need to use a Conditional Access  
Module to access content. Check with your  
operator.  
Note that HDCP (High-bandwidth  
Digital Content Protection) support can  
delay the time taken for a TV to display  
content from a HDMI device.  
If the TV does not recognize the HDMI  
device and no picture is displayed, try  
switching the source from one device to  
another and back again.  
An "e-sticker" banner displaying  
information appears on the TV display:  
The TV is in [Shop] mode. Remove the  
e-sticker by setting the TV to [Home] mode,  
then restarting the TV. See Setup the TV >  
Change other settings > TV location (Page  
35) for more information.  
If there are intermittent sound  
disruptions, check that output settings  
from the HDMI device are correct.  
The computer display on the TV is not  
stable:  
EN  
54  
Browse PC or Net TV access is slow.  
Refer to your router's user manual for  
information on transfer rate and other  
factors of signal quality.  
You need a high-speed Internet connection  
for your router.  
If you use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or  
HDMI to DVI cable, check that an  
additional audio cable is connected to  
AUDIO L/R or AUDIO IN (mini-jack  
only).  
You cannot use EasyLink features:  
Check that your HDMI devices are  
HDMI-CEC compatible. EasyLink features  
only work with devices that are HDMI-CEC  
compatible.  
If a 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.  
This behavior is normal when a HDMI-CEC  
audio device is connected.  
USB connection issues  
USB device content is not displayed:  
Check that the USB storage device is  
set to „Mass Storage Class‟ compliant, as  
described in the storage device's  
documentation.  
Check that the USB storage device is  
compatible with the TV.  
Check that the audio and picture file  
formats are supported by the TV.  
Audio and picture files do not play or  
display smoothly:  
The transfer performance of the USB  
storage device may limit the data transfer  
rate to the TV, causing poor playback.  
Network connection issues  
(Applicable to certain models only.)  
Net TV does not work  
If the connection to the router is properly  
set up, check the router connection to the  
Internet.
