HDMI - Highest quality
HDMI produces the best audio visual quality
possible. Both audio and video signals are
combined in one HDMI cable, providing an
uncompressed, digital interface between your
TV and HDMI devices. You must use HDMI to
experience full high-defi nition video. You must
also use HDMI cables to enable Philips EasyLink
(see ‘Use Philips EasyLink’ on page 47 ) .
Tip
If your PC only has a DVI connector, use a DVI-HDMI •
adaptor to connect your device to a HDMI connector
at the back of the TV. You must connect a separate
audio cable from the device to the AUDIO IN mini-jack
connector.
Note
Philips HDMI supports HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital •
Contents Protection). HDCP is a form of Digital Rights
Management that protects high defi nition content in
DVD or Blu-ray Discs.
Component (Y Pb Pr) - Higher quality
Component (Y Pb Pr) video provides better
picture quality than S-Video or composite
video connections. Though component video
supports high-defi nition signals, picture quality is
lower than HDMI and is analogue.
When connecting a component video
cable, match the cable colours to the EXT 3
connectors on the back of the TV. Also, connect
a Audio L/R cable to the red and white Audio
L/R input connectors at EXT 3.
Note
The number of HDMI connectors available may vary •
according to your TV model.

S-Video - Good quality
An analogue connection, S-Video provides
better picture quality than composite video.
When connecting your device with S-Video,
plug the S-Video cable to the S-Video
connector on the side of the TV. You must
connect a separate Audio L/R cable from
the device to the red and white Audio L/R
connectors on the side of the TV.
S-Video cable and Audio L/R cable (Red, White)
Composite - Basic quality
Composite video provides basic analogue
connectivity, usually combining a (yellow) video
cinch cable with (red and white) Audio L/R
cinch cable. Match the cable colours when
connecting to the composite Video and Audio
L/R input connectors on the side of the TV.
Composite audio/video cable - Yellow, red and

SCART - Good quality
SCART combines audio and video signals in
one cable. Audio signals are stereo, while video
signals can be composite or S-Video quality.
SCART does not support high-defi nition video
and is analogue. Two SCART connectors are
provided on the TV, EXT 1 and EXT 2.

by connecting the audio signal from your playback
device to the TV fi rst. Subsequently, channel the audio
signal to the home theatre system or audio device via
the audio connectors on the back of the TV.

This section describes commonly-encountered
issues and accompanying solutions.
General TV issues
The TV does not switch on:
Unplug the mains cable, wait for one •
minute and plug into the mains again.
Verify that the mains cable is properly •
connected and that the mains are
powered.
The remote control is not working properly:
Verify that the remote control batteries •
are correctly inserted according to the
+/- orientation.
Replace the remote control batteries if •
they are fl at or weak.
Clean the remote control and TV sensor •
lens.
The standby light on the TV blinks red:

reinserting the mains cord and turning on
the TV. If the blinking occurs again, contact
our Customer Support Centre.
You forgot your code to unlock Child lock
• Enter ‘8888’ (see ‘Lock TV channels or
connected devices (Child lock)’ on page
31 ) .
The TV menu is in the wrong language
• Change the TV menu to your preferred
language (see ‘Step 1 Select your menu
language’ on page 37 ) .
When turning the TV on/off/to standby, you
hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis:
No action is required. The creaking sound •
is normal expansion and contraction of the
TV as it cools down and warms up. This
does not impact performance.
EN

HDCP support can delay the time taken •
for a TV to display content from a device.
If the TV does not recognise the device •
and the screen does not display a picture,
try switching from one device to another
and back again to restart.
If you experience intermittent sound •
disruptions, check the user manual of the
HDMI device to verify that output settings •
are correct. Alternatively, try connecting
the audio signal from the HDMI device to
the TV via AUDIO IN at the back of the TV.
If a HDMI-to-DVI adaptor or HDMI to DVI •
cable is used, check that an additional audio
cable is connected to AUDIO IN. You must
also assign the audio connector.
USB connection issues
The TV does not display the USB device
content:
Set your device to ‘Mass Storage Class’ •
compliant, as described in your device
documentation.
Your USB device may not be compatible •
with the TV.
• Not all audio and picture fi les are
supported (see ‘Technical specifi cations’ on
page 49 ) .
Audio and picture fi les do not play or display
smoothly
The transfer performance of the USB •
device may limit the transfer rate.
PC connection issues
The PC display on my TV is not stable or is
not synchronised:
Check that a supported resolution and refresh
rate is selected on your PC. (see ‘Technical
specifi cations’ on page 49 )
• Verify that picture settings are correctly set
(see ‘Adjust picture settings’ on page 20 ) .
You receive poor TV reception from an
antenna connection:
Check that the antenna is properly •
connected to the TV.
Loudspeakers, unearthed audio devices, •
neon lights, high buildings or mountains can
infl uence the picture quality. Try to improve
the reception quality by changing the
antenna direction or moving devices away
from the TV.
• Verify if the correct TV system is selected
for your region (see ‘Step 1 Select your
system’ on page 38 ) .
• If reception on only one channel is poor,
try to fi ne tune this channel. (see ‘Fine tune
analogue channels’ on page 39 )
You receive poor picture quality from
connected devices:
Check that the devices are connected •
properly. Also, be sure to assign devices
to connectors (see ‘Assign devices to
connectors’ on page 46 ) . as described in
Section 7.4.1 Assign devices to connectors.
• Verify that picture settings are correctly set
(see ‘Adjust picture settings’ on page 20 ) .
The TV did not save my settings:
• Verify that the TV is set to Home mode,
which offers you complete fl exibility to
change settings (see ‘Change to Shop or
Home mode’ on page 26 ) .
The picture does not fi t the screen, it is too
big or too small:
Try using a different picture format . •
•
Assign your device to connectors (see
‘Assign devices to connectors’ on page 46 ) .
