• an Over-the-air HD broadcaster (DVB-T MPEG4)

• an HD channel on your DVB-C network

• an HD Game console (Xbox 360 / PlayStation 3), connected with an HDMI cable, with an HD game.

1.1.2 Safety

Read and understand all instructions before you use your

TV. If damage is caused by failure to follow instructions, the warranty does not apply.

Risk of electric shock or fire!

• When stand mounting the TV, use only the supplied stand. Secure the stand to the TV tightly. Place the TV on a flat, level surface that can support the combined weight of the TV and the stand.

• When wall mounting the TV, use only a wall mount that can support the weight of the TV. Secure the wall mount to a wall that can support the combined weight of the TV and wall mount. Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. bears no responsibility for improper wall mounting that results in accident, injury or damage.

• When wall mounting the TV, use only a wall mount that can support the weight of the TV. Secure the wall mount to a wall that can support the combined weight of the TV and wall mount. Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. bears no responsibility for improper wall mounting that results in accident, injury or damage.
