The TV does not switch on
Creaking sound at startup or switch off
When you are switching the TV on, off or to standby, you hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis. The creaking sound is due to the normal expansion and contraction of the TV as it cools and warms up. This does not affect performance.
TV does not respond to the remote control
The TV requires some time to start up. During this time, the TV does not respond to the remote control or TV controls. This is normal behaviour.
If the TV continues to be unresponsive to the remote control, you can check if the remote control is working by means of a mobile phone camera. Put the phone in camera mode and point the remote control to the camera lens. If you press any key on the remote control and you notice the infra red LED flicker through the camera, the remote control is working. The TV needs to be checked.
If you do not notice the flickering, the remote control might be broken or its batteries are low. This method of checking the remote control is not possible with remote controls which are wirelessly paired with the TV.
The TV goes back to standby after showing the Philips startup screen
When the TV is in standby, a Philips startup screen is displayed, then the TV returns to standby mode. This is normal behaviour. When the TV is disconnected and reconnected to the power supply, the startup screen is displayed at the next startup. To switch on the TV from standby, press
on the remote control or on the TV.
The standby light keeps on blinking
Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait 5 minutes before you reconnect the power cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact Philips TV Consumer Care.

Before you connect the TV to the power outlet, ensure that the power voltage matches the value printed on the back of the TV. Never connect the TV to the power outlet if the voltage is different.
Stability Hazards
A television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
If the existing television set is going to be retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
Risk of Batteries
Risk of Overheating
Never install the TV in a confined space. Always leave a space of at least 10 cm or 4 inches around the TV for ventilation. Ensure curtains or other objects never cover the ventilation slots on the TV.
Lightning Storms
Disconnect the TV from the power outlet and antenna before lightning storms. During lightning storms, never touch any part of the TV, power cord or antenna cable.
Risk of Hearing Damage
Avoid using earphones or headphones at high volumes or for prolonged periods of time.
Low Temperatures
If the TV is transported in temperatures below 5°C or 41°F, unpack the TV and wait until the TV temperature reaches room temperature before connecting the TV to the power outlet.
Humidity
In rare occasions, depending on temperature and humidity, minor condensation can occur on the inside of the TV glass front (on some models). To prevent this, do not expose the TV to direct sunlight, heat or extreme humidity. If condensation occurs, it will disappear spontaneously while the TV is playing for a few hours.
The condensation moisture will not harm the TV or cause malfunction.
