UNDERSTANDING THE AUTOLOCK™ CONTROLS
T
he AutoLock™ 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 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 feature to censor the type of viewing children

CARE
AND
WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on the TV
Screen:
Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on screen
for extended periods of time. This can cause uneven
picture-tube aging.
Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures
that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the
screen. Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen for
extended periods of time, or to display the same images on
screen too frequently, because subtle ghost images can be left
on the picture tubes. Sources of stationary images may be DVD
disks, laser disks, video games, CD-i disks, videotapes, digital
television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite
channels, and others. Here are some examples of stationary
images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter
others in your viewing):
• DVD menus—listings of DVD disk content
• Letterbox black bars—shown at the top and bottom of the
TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a
TV with standard (4:3) aspect ratio.
• Video-game images and scoreboards
• Television station logos—present a problem if they are
bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are
less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube
• Stock-market tickers—presented at the bottom of the TV
screen
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays—bright
and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on
the TV screen.
CLEANING
PLACEMENT OF THE TV
• To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and
increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot; for example, in
direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.
• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated
back cover of the set.
CLEANING
• To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV is unplugged
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster to
keep the TV clean.
• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the
screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything
abrasive. Do not use household cleaners. 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 and a mild soap
or detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back
cover of the set.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on
or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.
34
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Auto 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.
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.
Side Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the side of the TV
these connectors (phono type plug) are used for the input of
audio and video signals. Designed for easy use with VCRs or
cameras.
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 on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.
Quadra Surf • The feature that allows the programming of
four separate Surf lists holding up to 10 channels each.
Remote Sensor Window • A window or opening found on
the Television control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are received.
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).
Surf • The action of scanning specific channel in a limited
channel list.
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.
Tuner Mode • Feature control settings made by the TV.
Designed for first time set up 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.)

This product can be repaired in home.
WHO IS COVERED?
MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...
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.
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.
WHERE IS SERVICE AVAILABLE?
Warranty service is available in all countries where the product is officially distributed by Philips Consumer Electronics Company. In countries where Philips Consumer Electronics Company does not distribute
the product, the local Philips service organization will attempt to provide service (although there may be a delay if the appropriate spare
parts and technical manual(s) are not readily available).
BEFORE REQUESTING SERVICE...
Please check your owner’s manual before requesting service.
Adjustments of the controls discussed there may save you a service
call.
