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.

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

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 built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

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 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.

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

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

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.

14. 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.

Safety Instructions (continued)

This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions that may appear in your owner’s manual. When using your telephone equipment, always follow these basic safety precautions in order to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons.

15. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners; use a damp cloth for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquid, unplug the phone line and the power adapter and let the unit dry thoroughly before plugging it back in.

16. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label or in the owner’s manual. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

17. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.

18. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts, resulting in the risk of fire or electric shock.

Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

19. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair work is required. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when this product is subsequently used.

20. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: a) when the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed; b) if liquid has spilled into the product; c) if the product has been exposed to rain or water; d) if the product does not operate normally when you follow the operating instructions (adjust only those controls that are discussed in the owner’s manual, as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage, often requiring extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal performance); e) if the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged; f) if the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.

21. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

22. Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from the area where gas is leaking. With a cordless phone, also make sure that the phone base is away from the gas leak.

23. Grounding or Polarization - This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.

Federal Communications Commission Information

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the back panel of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer

Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone company. The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five. To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.

If your telephone equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But, if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service.

If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact Philips Consumer

Electronics repair facility at Philips Service Solutions Group, P.O. Box 555, Old Andrew

Johnson Highway, Jefferson City, TN 37760, for more information on obtaining service or repairs. The telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.

Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.

This device is equipped with an RJ11 connector.

CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Philips

Consumer Electronics could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

Canadian Ringer Equivalence Number Notice

The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements. The department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above condition may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to some certified equipment should be made by an authorized maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or any equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system are connected together. This precaution may be important particularly in rural areas.

CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or electrician as appropriate.

The RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the REN of all devices does not exceed five.

The REN for the MAT972 is .2A.

Before You Begin

You probably already have your TV connected to other devices, such as a

VCR or a Cable Box. You may need to disconnect some cables before you connect the TV to your Internet Terminal. The Internet Terminal must be the device that is connected directly to your TV.

You may use the cables that came with your VCR, Cable Box, or Satellite Box when connecting the Internet Terminal to these devices. Some connections may require additional cables or adapters.

If you connect other equipment to the Internet Terminal, make sure all equipment is set to the same channel. For example, if the Cable Box is on channel

3, all equipment should be set to channel 3.

Before you can connect to the WebTV Network, you must connect your

Internet Terminal to each of the following:

❐ a Cable TV or antenna signal,

❐ your television,

❐ a telephone line,

❐ and an AC power outlet.

The type of connection you choose depends on whether your TV:

❐ has an S-Video jack, Audio/Video jacks, or an RF coaxial (combined

UHF/VHF) Antenna In jack,

❐ is connected to a VCR,

❐ or is connected to a Cable Box/Satellite Box.

Remember: Objects placed on top of the Internet Terminal could hinder the flow of air through the ventilation openings. Do not place anything on top of the Internet Terminal.

WebTV Network Subscription

After you complete these connections, you will subscribe to the WebTV

Network, which has a monthly subscription fee. WebTV Network service is not available as a local call everywhere. Toll charges may apply. To see if you have local access, please call 1-800-GO-WEBTV (469-3288). (Service and support fees may apply for accessing WebTV Network customer support.)

Usage Requirements

The Philips Magnavox Internet Terminal is to be used solely with the WebTV

Network, a subscription-based Internet service operated by WebTV

Networks, Inc. (WNI). Access to and use of the WebTV Network is subject to your agreement to WNI’s terms of service.

This product contains software licensed from WNI. By opening this package, you agree that you will not modify it.

The IR Blaster enables your Internet Terminal to program your VCR and to select channels on your Cable Box or Satellite Box.

Connect the IR Blaster cable to the IR Blaster jack on the back of the Internet

Terminal.

Find the infrared sensor on your VCR, Cable Box, or Satellite Box. (The sensor usually is located behind the display panel on the front of the VCR, Cable

Box, or Satellite Box. If the sensor is not labelled on your equipment, refer to the equipment’s manual for details.)

Place the IR Blaster directly in front of the sensor on the VCR, Cable Box, or Satellite

Box. The light on the IR Blaster must directly face the sensor on the equipment.

For the Internet Terminal to communicate with your VCR, Cable Box, or

Satellite Box, you must position the IR Blaster correctly. Position the light on the IR Blaster so that it faces the sensor on your VCR, Cable Box or Satellite

Box.

If you only use one IR Blaster, (for example, if you only have a VCR connected to the Internet Terminal), place the unused IR Blaster behind the equipment.

NOTE: If you use the IR Blaster in an enclosed setting, such as an entertainment center with glass doors, keep the doors open. This will reduce interference and allow the infrared signals to travel freely.

Go to step 4 - Connecting the Telephone Cord.

You will complete the second half of step 3 (setting up the IR Blaster) after you sign up with the WebTV

Network.

Step 3 Connecting the IR Blaster, continued

After you have connected the Internet Terminal and signed up with the WebTV Network, you must set up your IR Blaster to work with

your equipment. Simple instructions are available after you sign up with the

WebTV Network. Follow these steps to access the instructions.

Once you are connected to the WebTV Network, press the VIEW button until the TV Home page appears on the screen.

Use the Arrow buttons to select Settings. Press the GO button.

Use the Arrow buttons to select Hooking up. Press the GO button. You’ll be guided through a few screens to complete the setup of your VCR, Cable Box, or Satellite Box.
