PRECAUTIONS

Additional Safety Precautions:

• Do not shift or move the LCD TV around when it is powered on.

• Do not connect any AC/DC adapter to your LCD TV that does not originally come with the television. Only use

the recommended part or parts that are approved by Philips Consumer Electronics.

• Caution: Do not use any cover or enclose the AC/DC adapter with any objects like a cloth or box which might

shorten the life of the equipment.

• Do not touch, push or rub the surface of the LCD screen with any sharp or hard objects.

• When the surface of the LCD screen becomes dusty, wipe it gently with an absorbent cotton cloth or other soft

material like chamois. DO NOT use acetone, toluene or alcohol to clean the surface of the screen. These chemi-

cals will cause damage.

• Wipe off water, or saliva as soon as possible. Long exposer time to liquids can cause deformation and color fad-

ing of the LCD screen.

• Be careful of condensation when temperature changes occur. Condensation can cause damage to the LCD

screen and electrically parts. After condensation fades, spots or blemishes will be present on the LCD screen.

Positioning the LCD Television:

• Place the LCD TV on a solid, sturdy base or stand. Be sure the stand is strong enough to handle the weight of

the LCD TV.

•Try to leave at least 6” of space around each side of the LCD TV cabinet to allow for proper ventilation.

• Do not place the LCD TV near a radiator or other sources of heat.

• Do not place the LCD TV where it can be exposed to rain or excessive moisture.

Recycling Procedure/End of Life Disposal:

•To minimize harm to the environment, the batteries supplied with the LCD TV do not contain mercury or nickel

cadmium. If possible, when disposing of batteries, use recycling means available in your area.

• The LCD TV uses materials that can be recycled. To minimize the amount of waste in the environment, check

your area for companies that will recover used televisions for dismantling and collection of reusable materials, or

contact your dealer for TV recycling tips.

• Please dispose of the carton and packing material through the proper waste disposal management in your area.

NOTE: It is possible that this owner's manual may be used with several different television mod-

els. Not all features (and drawings) discussed in this manual will necessarily match those found

with your television system. While every effort is made to give the consumer the most accurate

information possible regarding this product, normal changes in production could occur effect-

ing the images and onscreen menu procedures outlined in this manual. This is normal and does

not require you contacting your dealer or requesting service

Here are a few of the features built into your new Television:

Audio/Video Jack Panels allows direct connections with VCRs,

DVDs, PCs 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, com-

fortable sound.

AutoChron™ automatically sets the right time of day and main-

tains 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

programs with certain ratings if you do not want your children to

view inappropriate materials.

Auto Programming scans (when activated) for all available chan-

nels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active

broadcast stations in the TV’s memory.

AutoPicture™ allows you to change the picture settings (color,

tint, contrast, etc.) for various types of programming, such as

sports, movies, multimedia (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 prefer-

ences through the onscreen Sound menu. The three factory-set con-

trols (Voice, Music, and Theatre) enable you to tailor the TV sound

so as to enhance the particular programming you are watching.

Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dialogue

or voice conversations as onscreen text.

Infrared Remote Control works your TV and other remote-con-

trolled devices, such as VCRs, DVD players, cable converters, and

satellite receivers.

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 turn itself ON and OFF once or

daily like an alarm clock.

he AutoLock™ feature receives and

processes data sent by broadcasters or

other program providers that contain pro-

gram 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 objection-

able (such as offensive language, violence,

sexual situations, etc.). This is a great feature

to censor the type of programming children

may watch.

In the AutoLock™ section, you’ll learn how

to block channels and programming that is

not rated, is unrated, 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 relat-

ed to the AutoLock™ feature.

AutoLock™ offers various Blocking

Options from which to choose:

BLOCKING: The BLOCKING control is

what can be thought of as the “master switch”

for AutoLock™. This control affects the set-

tings 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 BLOCKING control is

ON, blocking will occur according to the set-

tings you have chosen.

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 pro-

gramming 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 descrip-

tion of the ratings on this page.)

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

display 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.

LACEMENT OF THE

•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.

LEANING

•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.

Do not use acetone, toluene, or alcohol to clean the screen.

• 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.
