Audio/Video Jack Panel allows direct connections with VCRs, DVDs, or
other devices, providing quality TV picture and sound playback.
Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) Control keeps the TV sound at an even
level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or commercial
breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, comfortable sound.
AutoChron™ automatically sets the right time of day and maintains it
with digital precision through brownouts, power failures, and even
Daylight Savings Time adjustments.
AutoLock™ allows you to block the viewing of certain channels or pro-
grams with certain ratings if you do not want your children to view inap-
propriate materials.
Auto Programming scans (when activated) for all available channels
from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast sta-
tions in the TV’s memory.
AutoPicture™ allows you to change the picture settings (color, tint, con-
trast, etc.) for various types of programming, such as sports, movies, multi-
media (games), or weak signals with the push of one button. |
AutoSound™ allows you to select from three factory-set controls and a
personal control that you set according to your own preferences through
the onscreen Sound menu. The three factory-set controls (Voice, Music,
and Theatre) enable you to tailor the TV sound so as to enhance the partic-
ular programming you are Watching.
Channel Edit allows you to add or delete channels from the list stored in
the TV’s memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to limit or expand the num-
ber of channels that are available to you when you press the Channel (+) or
(=) buttons on your remote control. |
Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dialogue or
voice conversations as onscreen text.
ImageMax™ helps you sharpen the picture quality by making dark por-
tions of the picture darker and light portions brighter.
Infrared Remote Control works your TV and other remote-controlled
devices, such as VCRs, DVD players, cable converters, and satellite
receivers.
Infrared Remote (IR) Blaster works with the M-Link feature to enable
your TV to “learn” the remote-control commands of new Philips devices
or multibrand devices that you have connected to your TV. After the com-
mands are learned, you can use your TV remote control to operate and
control all of the devices.
M-Link™ allows you to convert your TV into a home-cinema control
center composed of up to six devices (including an audio amplifier). You
activate the devices by pressing macro buttons and control the devices by
pressing “hot” buttons on your remote control. Choose from cable box,
digital set top box, DVD (digital video disc), laser disc (LD), satellite digi-
tal TV, VCD (video compact disc), and VCR (video cassette recorder)
devices. |
Onscreen Menu shows helpful messages and instructions for setting TV
feature controls (can be viewed in English, French, or Spanish).
Sleep Timer automatically tums the TV OFF after a set amount of time
that you choose.
Standard Broadcast (VHF/UHF) or Cable TV (CATY) channel capabil-
ity allows for viewing by antenna or cable.
Stereo capability, including a built-in audio amplifier and twin-speaker
system, allows for the reception of TV programs broadcast in stereo sound.
Surf Button allows you to easily switch among only the channels that are
of interest to you (the ones that you have programmed into the TV’s Surf
control through the onscreen menu).
Timer allows you to set your TV to tum itself ON and OFF once or daily
like an alarm clock.

UNDERSTANDING AUTOLOCKTM
he AutoLock™ feature receives
and processes data sent by
broadcasters or other program
providers that contain program con-
tent advisories. When programmed
by the viewer, a TV with AutoLock™
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 fea-
ture to censor the type of program-
ming children may watch.
In the AutoLock™ section, you'll
learn how to block channels and pro-
gramming that is not rated, is unrat-
ed, or has no rating. You will also
find out how to turn these blocking
features ON or OFF. Following are
brief explanations of some terms and
ratings related to the AutoLock™
feature.
AutoLock™ offers various
Blocking Options from which to
choose:
BLOCKING: The BLOCKING con-
trol is what can be thought of as the
“master switch” for AutoLock™,
This control affects the settings you
have chosen for blocking programs
according to movie ratings or TV
ratings, or for blocking programs
that have no rating or are unrated.
When the BLOCKING control is
OFF, the blocking or censoring of
programs is disabled. When the
LOCKING control is ON, blocking
will occur according to the settings
you have chosen.
BLOCK UNRATED: ALL unrated
programs will be blocked if this fea-
ture is set to ON,
UNRATED programming is encoded
with information from the MPAA
(Motion Picture Association of
America) 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
Programming that has No Rating is
not encoded with any rating infor-
mation from the MPAA or he
Parental Guidelines. Any program-
ming could fall into this category.
You also can block individual
channels or block programming
based on ratings of the MPAA and
TV broadcasters. (See a description
of the ratings on this page.)

Cleaning and Care
CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, compact disc interactive [CDI], or
TV information channel) that shows a constant nonmoving pattern on the TV screen can
cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source, the
pattern of the nonmoving portion of the game (or other source) can leave a permanent
image on the picture tube. When you're not using the video source, tum it OFF. Also,
regularly alternate the use of such video sources With normal TV viewing.

the outlet and push the POWER button again. |
