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.

ANTENNA

A

OUTDOOR/INDOOR combination (outdoor or indoor) antenna receives normal broadcast channels 2-13 (VHF) and

14-69 (UHF). Your connection to such an antenna is easy since there is only one antenna plug (75 Ω ohm) on the back of your

TV - and that’s where the antenna goes.

BEGIN

1

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.

2

Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the

ANTENNA plug on the rear of the TV. If the round end of the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down tight.

U NDERSTANDING S MART L OCK he SmartLock feature receives T 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 programming children may watch.

Over the next few pages, you’ll

learn how to block channels and certain rated programming, as well as learn to turn these blocking features on or off. Below is a brief explanation of some terms and ratings you will find in the SmartLock feature.

SmartLock offers various

Blocking Options from which to choose:

BLOCKING: This is what might be called the "master switch" for

SmartLock. When BLOCKING is

OFF, ALL blocking/censoring is disabled. When BLOCKING is ON,

ALL blocking based on specific settings will take place.

BLOCK UNRATED: ALL unrated programs will be blocked if this feature is set to ON.

UNRATED programming is encoded with information from the MPAA or

TV broadcasters, but it does not have a specific rating. In other words, the MPAA or the TV broadcasters have chosen not to assign a rating to the programming.

NO RATING: ALL programming with no content advisory data can be blocked if NO RATING is set to

ON.

Programming that has No Rating is not encoded with any rating information from the MPAA or the

Parental Guidelines. Any programming could fall into this category.

You also can block individual channels or block programming based on ratings of the MPAA and

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

S martLock allows parents to block out or “censor” any channels they think children should not watch. A channel blocked by the

SmartLock access code:

BEGIN

“XXXX Code Correct” will appear.

If you enter the wrong code,

Parents - it isn’t possible for your child to unblock a channel without knowing your access code or changing it to a new one.

If your code changes, and you didn’t change it, then you know it’s been altered by someone else and blocked channels have been viewed.

If a sub-rating (such as V) is blocked but the main category (such as TV-PG) is not, the category will not appear as a blocked rating in the review. However, the sub-rating is still blocked.

S ECOND A UDIO P ROGRAM (SAP)

SAP is an additional part of the stereo broadcast system. Sent as a third audio channel, SAP can be heard apart from the current TV program sound. TV stations are free to use SAP for any number of purposes, but many experts believe it will be used for foreign language translations of TV shows (or for weather and news bulletins).

If a SAP signal is not present with a selected program, the SAP option cannot be selected. Also, if SAP is selected on a channel (with SAP) and you select another channel, when you return to the original channel SAP will be OFF. You will have to reselect the SAP feature.

P icture in Picture (PIP) is the showing of two pictures on the screen at the same time (one main screen picture and a smaller inset picture, or PIP).

Note: The PIP picture must be supplied by a VCR (or other accessory device equipped with a

VIDEO OUTPUT jack).

The following is a basic PIP hookup using a VCR to supply the secondary picture.

BEGIN

Connect the VIDEO OUT

jack on the VCR to the VIDEO

IN (yellow) jack on the rear of the TV.

Also connect the AUDIO OUT

(Right and Left) jacks from the

VCR to the AUDIO IN jacks (red and white) on the TV.

Also be sure that there is a normal Cable or Antenna signal connection between the VCR and the

TV.

This completes the basic PIP hookup. Refer to pages 46-47 for

“More PIP Connections.”

Move to the next page after the VCR to TV PIP connections have been completed.

Remember, although there are separate COLOR and TINT controls for PIP, the adjustment levels for these controls depend on the TV’s main picture.

For example: If the main picture screen is showing a black and white picture, PIP would also be seen in black and white (even though the PIP picture source is in color).

NOTE: If any SmartLock blocking options are set to ON, when this control is accessed the screen will turn white, blocking the PIP picture.

When the PIP button is pushed and SmartLock blocking options are turned ON, enter the access code you created in the SmartLock feature. This will allow the PIP COLOR and TINT to be changed while the PIP picture is present. Entering your access code will UNBLOCK ALL channels. To reset the blocking options, turn the TV off, then turn the TV back on. All previously blocked channels will be blocked again.

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 to be sure the system mode switch (TV/VCR/ACC) is in the correct position when using the remote control to power the set ON.

• Check antenna connections. Are they properly secured to the TV's ANT/CABLE plug?

• Check the TUNER control for CABLE or ANTENNA setting.

• Press the AV button on the remote to make sure the correct signal source is selected

(AV 1, AV 2, SVID-R or MM 1, MM 2, MM 3).

• Check the VOLUME buttons.

• Check the MUTE button on the remote control.

• Check the SPEAKER on-screen control. OFF position will eliminate sound at the set.

• If attempting auxiliary equipment hookups, check audio jack connections.

• (If Applicable) Check Audio Receiver for correct operating mode.

Remote Does Not

Work

• Check TV/VCR/ACC “System” switch on the remote. Move the switch to the TV position to operate the television.

• Check batteries. Replace with AA Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries if necessary.

• Clean the remote and the remote sensor window on the TV.

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into outlet and push POWER button again. Be sure fuse is not blown on AC power strip.

• Check to be sure TV outlet is not on a wall switch.

TV Displays Wrong

Channel or No

Channels Above 13

• Repeat channel selection.

• Add desired channel numbers (CHANNEL EDIT control) into TV memory.

• 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

Alternate Channel • Use the A/CH button on the remote control to toggle between the last two channels viewed.

Auto Programming • When activated, this feature automatically scans for all available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast stations into the TV’s memory.

Channel Edit • Add or delete channels from the sequential tuning cycle to develop a customized list of channels you want to watch. Editing makes it easy to limit the number of channels when using the Channel +/- buttons or to expand the number of channels available to suit your preference.

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

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.

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," the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.

Incredible Stereo (or Surround) • Pseudo-acoustic management of the audio signal produces a dramatic expansion of the wall of sound engulfing the listener and heightens overall viewing pleasure.

Menu • An on-screen listing of feature controls that are available for user adjustments.

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

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.).

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.

Second Audio Program (SAP) • Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV program material.

Status/Exit • 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.

SmartLock • Allows you to block or censor channels or programming that you may find objectionable. Program advisory content data (i.e., movie ratings, TV ratings) is supplied by broadcasters during the broadcasting of programs. The TV can detect the data and block the programs if desired.

SmartClock • An accurate digital clock. By monitoring the vertical blanking interval of PBS broadcasts, TVs equipped with SmartClock can automatically set the right time of day and maintain it through brownouts, power failures, and even Daylight Savings Time adjustments.

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.

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.

BEFORE REQUESTING SERVICE...

Please check your owner’s manual before requesting service.

Adjustments of the controls discussed there may save you a service call.
