DEFINITION  
High-definition television offers a picture with unprecedented crispness and clarity. The TV broadcast industry is moving toward high definition as  
the signal standard. Currently, the number of programs being broadcast in high definition is limited, but this is changing. To view high-definition programs on  
your TV, you will need to connect a satellite receiver, cable box, or set-top box that can decode HD signals.  
Resolution information  
Image resolutions are commonly referred to by a num-  
ber followed by a letter: 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i.  
Interlaced Scan  
Odd lines  
Progressive Scan  
The number in each format refers to the number of lines  
of resolution, so for example both 480i and 480p offer  
480 lines of resolution. The "i" or "p" refers to whether  
the signal is displayed using respectively interlaced or  
progressive scan. Interlaced scan breaks each frame of  
video into 2 fields, one made up of even lines and one  
made up of odd lines. The image is reproduced by draw-  
ing all odd lines first (1,3,5,…479) than all the even  
ones (2,4,6,….,480). Progressive scan, on the other hand  
reproduces an image by drawing all lines in succession  
1,2,3,4,….480).

Pre-connection Recommendations  
Positioning theTV  
Situate the TV where  
it will not be exposed  
to heat or moisture.  
Before connecting accessory devices—VCR,  
DVD player, or HD satellite receiver, for exam-  
ple—please keep the following in mind:  
• Place the TV on a flat surface. An unlevel sur-  
face may adversely affect picture perform-  
ance.  
For safety, do not  
set objects on top  
of the TV.  
• Do not place the TV on shag carpet or any  
surface that will block the ventilation open-  
ings at the bottom of the set. Blockage will  
cause the TV to overheat and shut down.  
• Allow 4 to 6 inches of space behind the TV  
for ventilation.  
• An optional swivel and an optional stand are  
available for use with your TV. See your elec-  
tronics dealer.  
Allow 4 to 6 inch-  
es behind the TV  
for ventilation.  
Place the TV on  
a flat surface.  
• 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.  
Do not place the TV on a surface that will block  
the air filters located underneath the set.  
• 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. The  
optional Philips stand provides enough room  
for two accessory devices, side by side.  
• 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.  
Optional Swivel  
Optional Stand  
Connecting Cables  
Be sure to insert each cable firmly into the cor-  
rect jack.

light sensor (located on the front of the TV)  
to adjust the picture settings according to  
viewing conditions in the room. When you

Selecting a Picture Format Option  
Your TV’s wide screen (16:9 aspect ratio)  
Conventional 4:3 Screen Size  
delivers a home-cinema experience that isn’t  
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.  
Your TVs 16:9 Screen Size  
YourTVs Picture Format Options  
For flexibility in viewing conventional 4:3-  
format video sources on your TV’s wide  
screen, you have the options Automatic,”  
“Super zoom,” “Panoramic,” “4:3,” “Movie  
expand 14:9,” “Movie expand 16:9,” “16:9  
subtitle,” or “Wide screen.”  
Automatic (not depicted)  
Makes the picture fill the screen  
as much as possible when the  
presence of black or gray bars is  
detected.  
NOTE: The Automatic picture format is  
disabled for AV3–AV6.  
Panoramic  
Evenly stretches the edges of the  
picture to fill the TV’s wide  
screen.  
Page 36 explains how to select a picture  
format option.  
c
CHECK IT OUT  
Inputs AV3–AV4 allow horizontal and vertical  
picture panning using the Cursor Left, Right,  
Up, and Down buttons. The Side input allows  
vertical picture panning; left and right panning  
with the Side input is possible when the input  
has been labeled “Game.” See pages 18 and 19  
for details on side panel connections and  
source labeling.  
Super zoom  
Removes the black or gray bars  
on the sides of a 4:3-format pic-  
ture with minimal distortion. Part  
of the top and bottom portions of  
the picture are excluded from the  
screen.  
Movie expand 14:9  
Expands the picture to 14:9 movie  
aspect ratio. Part of the top and bot-  
tom portions of the picture are  
excluded from the screen. Black or  
gray bars are shown at the left and  
right sides.  
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  
movies are filmed and presented in theaters.  
However, many widescreen DVDs will still  
display black bars to preserve the true the-  
atrical format.  
4:3  
Displays a conventional 4:3 pic-  
ture without change. Black or  
gray bars will show at the left and  
right sides.  
16:9 subtitle  
Zooms the picture for a full view  
of subtitles or other information
