SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Read before operating equipment

This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of.

1.

Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2.

Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3.

Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4.

Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5.

Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water

- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.

6.

Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

6A.

An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design.

• Do not compromise these design standards by applying excessive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could ultimately overturn the product.

• Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing electronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product damage and/or personal injury.

7.

Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

8.

Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a builtin installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

9.

Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.

11. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

12. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer.

13. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antennadischarge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Fig. below.

15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.

16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

17. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:

A.

The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or

B.

Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or

C.

The appliance has been exposed to rain; or

D.

The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance; or

E.

The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the

CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

(VHF 2-13 and UHF 14-69).

Your connection is easy since there is only one 75

(ohm) antenna plug on the back of your

TV - and that’s where the antenna goes.

BEGIN

If your antenna has a round

cable (75 ohm) on the end, then you're ready to connect it to the TV.

If your antenna has flat twin-lead

wire (300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 to 75 ohm adapter.

Note: For homes with separate UHF and VHF antennas you will need an optional combiner to connect to the TV.

T he SmartLock feature is an integrated circuit that receives and processes data sent by broadcasters, or other program providers, that contain program content advisories. When programmed by the viewer, a TV with SmartLock can respond to the content advisories and block program content that may be found objectionable (such as offensive language, violence, sexual situations, etc.). This is a great feature to censor the type of viewing children may watch.

Over the next few pages you’ll

learn how to block channels and certain rated programming. Below is a brief explanation of some terms and ratings you will find in the

SmartLock feature.

SmartLock offers various

BLOCKING OPTION controls from which to choose:

MASTER DISABLE: This is what might be called the "master switch" for SmartLock. When in the ON position, ALL blocking/censoring is turned off (or disabled). When in the

OFF position, ALL blocking based on specifically blocked settings will take place.

BLOCK UNRATED: ALL unrated programs based on the Movie

Ratings or Parental (TV) Guidelines can be blocked if this feature is set to ON and the MASTER DISABLE feature is set to OFF.

BLOCK NO RATINGS: ALL programming with NO content advisory data can be blocked if this feature is set to ON and the MASTER DIS-

ABLE feature is set to OFF.

After an access code has been pro-

grammed, you can block up to 5 individual channels. But more than just blocking channels, certain blocking options exist which will block programming based on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures

Association of America and TV broadcasters. (See description of ratings on this page.)

ORKING

CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or

TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF.

Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into outlet and push POWER button again.

• Check that outlet is not on a wall switch. Be sure fuse is not blown on AC Power strip.

• Check antenna connections. Are they properly secured to the TV's 75

Ω plug?

• Check the TUNER control for CABLE or ANTENNA setting.

• Check Audio/Video Input jack connections if using a VCR or other external device.

• Check to be sure the TUNER control is set to the CABLE option.

Cleaning and Care

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

• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive). 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. Use a clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

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

ERMS

Coaxial Cable • A single solid antenna wire normally matched with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.

Closed Caption • Broadcast standard which allows you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV screen.

Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses onscreen

"text boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV program is in progress.

Direct Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the rear of the TV these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connection options.

Identify • Method by which a remote control searches and finds an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable

Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.

On Screen Displays (OSD) • Refers to the wording or messages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Menu • An onscreen listing of feature controls shown on the

Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) • The broadcast standard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.

Programming • The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the

Television “remembers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.

Remote Sensor Window • A window or opening found on the

Television control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are received.

Setup Mode • Automatic feature control settings made by the

TV. Designed for first time setup and use. Settings for signal connections (antenna or cable TV), plus channel program memory are held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged and moved to a new location.)

Status • Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the Television of on screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the screen).

Twin Lead Wire • The more commonly used name for the two strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more recent

Televisions and VCRs.

LIMITED WARRANTY

COLOR TELEVISION

90 Days Free Labor

One Year Free Replacement of Parts (Two Years Free Replacement on Color Picture Tube)

This product can be repaired in-home.

WHO IS COVERED?

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.

MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...

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 90 days

thereafter, all parts will be repaired or replaced free, and labor is free.

From 90 days to one year from the day of purchase, all parts will be repaired or replaced free, but you pay for all labor charges. From one to two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts except the picture tube, and for all labor charges.

After two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts, and for all labor charges.

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.

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 IN U.S.A.,

PUERTO RICO OR U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS...

Contact a Philips factory service center (see enclosed list) or authorized service center to arrange repair.

(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.)

WHAT IS EXCLUDED?

Your warranty does not cover:

• 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, accident, 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.

• incidental or consequential damages resulting from the product.

(Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This includes, but is not limited to, prerecorded material, whether copyrighted or not copyrighted.)

• a product used for commercial or institutional purposes.
