Information for Users in the UK 
This information is specific to the UK. If 
you are using your TV in the UK, use this 
information in conjunction with the rest of 
this manual.
Positioning the TV
For the best results, choose a position 
where light does not fall directly on the 
screen, and at some distance away from 
radiators or other sources of heat. Leave 
a space of at least 5cm around the TV for 
ventilation. Ensure that curtains, cupboards 
and other items cannot obstruct the air flow 
through the ventilation apertures. The TV is 
intended for use in a domestic environment 
only and should never be operated or stored 
in excessively hot or humid atmospheres.
Interference
The Department of Trade and Industry 
operates a Radio Interference Investigation 
Service to help TV licence holders improve 
reception of BBC and IBA programmes 
where they are being spoilt by interference. 
If your dealer cannot help, ask at a main Post 
Office for the booklet “How to Improve Televi-
sion and Radio Reception ”.
Mains Connection
Before connecting the TV to the mains, 
check that the mains supply voltage cor-
responds to the voltage printed on the 
type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If 
the mains voltage is different, consult your 
dealer.
Important
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 
moulded 13 AMP plug. Should it become 
necessary to replace the mains fuse, this  must be replaced with a fuse of the same 
value as indicated on the plug.
Remove fuse cover and fuse.
Replace the fuse.
The replacement fuse must comply with 
BS 1362 and have the ASTA approval 
mark. If the fuse is lost, contact your re-
tailer in order to verify the correct type.
Refit the fuse cover.
If for any reason the fitted plug is not 
suitable for your socket outlet, consult 
your retailer or a qualified electrician 
before proceeding with the installation.
Connecting the Aerial
The aerial should be connected to the 
socket marked : at the back of the set. An 
inferior aerial is likely to result in a poor, 
perhaps unstable picture with ghost images 
and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft or set-
top aerials are often inadequate. Your dealer 
will know from experience the most suitable 
type for your locality. Should you wish to 
use the set in conjunction with other equip-
ment, which connects to the aerial socket 
such as TV games, or a video camera it is 
recommended that these be connected via a 
combiner unit to avoid repeated connection 
and disconnection of the aerial plug.
Fitting the Stand (If Provided)
Use only the stand provided with the set. 
Ensure that the fixings are properly tight-
ened. A diagram showing how to assemble 
the stand is packed with the stand. Never 
use a make-shift stand, or legs fixed with 
screws. 1.

Thank you for purchasing this TV. This 
manual contains information about how to 
install and operate your TV. 
  
If this instruction manual does not answer 
your problem or if the troubleshooting page 
does not solve your problem, call your local 
Philips customer or service centre. See the 
supplied worldwide guarantee booklet for 
details. Please have the model and product 
number ready, before calling the Philips 
customer support service. The model and 
product number can be found at the back or 
bottom of your TV, or on the packaging.
Stationary Images 
A characteristic of LCD and Plasma Panels 
is that displaying the same image for a long 
time can cause a permanent after-image to 
remain on the screen. This is called phos-
phor burn in. Normal use of the TV should 
involve the showing of pictures that contain 
constantly moving and changing images that 
fill the screen. The following list gives some 
examples of stationary images that  you may 
encounter others in your viewing:
TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD  
 disk content.
Black bars: when black bars appear at  
 the left and right side of the screen, it is  
 recommended to change to a picture 
format so that the picture fills the entire  
 screen.
TV channel logos: logos present a prob-
lem if  they are bright and stationary. 
Moving or low-contrast graphics are 
less likely to cause uneven aging of the 
screen.
Stock market stickers: presented at the  
 bottom of the TV screen.

1 Introduction
Shopping channel logos and pricing   
 displays: bright and shown constantly or  
 repeatedly in the same location on  the  
 TV screen.
Examples of still pictures also include  
 logos, computer images, time display,  
 teletext and images displayed in 4:3  
 mode, static images or characters, etc.
TIP:  Reduce contrast and brightness when 
viewing.
Electric, Magnetic and Electromag-
netic Fields (“EMF”)
Royal Philips Electronics manufactures  
 and sells many products targeted at 
consumers, which, like any electronic  
 apparatus, in general have the ability to  
 emit and receive electromagnetic signals.
One of Philips’ leading Business    
 Principles is to take all necessary health  
 and safety measures for our products, to 
comply with all applicable legal require-
ments and to stay well within the EMF 
standards applicable at the time of    
producing the products.
Philips is committed to develop, produce  
 and market products that cause no   
 adverse health effects.
Philips confirms that if its products are  
 handled properly for their intended use,  
 they are safe to use according to scien-
tific evidence available today.
Philips plays an active role in the    
 development of international EMF and 
safety standards, enabling Philips to   
 anticipate further developments in    
 standardization for early integration in its  
 products.

Do not leave the TV in standby mode for an 
extended period of time. Instead, disconnect 
the TV from the mains.
Pull the power lead by the plug. Do not pull 
on the power lead. Do not use a poor fitting 
mains socket. Insert the plug  fully into the 
mains. If it is loose, it may cause arcing and 
result in fire.
XXX

Do not connect too much equipment to the 
same mains socket. Excess equipment can 
cause overloading and result in fire or electric 
shock.
Caring for the screen
Do not remove the protective sheet until you 
have completed the stand or wall mounting 
and connections. Please handle with care. 
Use only a soft cloth to clean the front of the 
TV.
Do not use a cloth that is dripping with water. 
Do not use acetone, toluene or alcohol to 
clean  the TV. As a safety precaution, unplug  
the power cord from the mains when you 
clean the set.

Two people are required to lift and carry a 
TV that weighs more than 25kg. Improper 
handling of the TV can cause serious injury.
If you place the TV set on a surface, ensure 
the surface is level and that it can withstand 
the weight of the TV.
If you wish to hang your TV on a wall, do not 
hang the TV yourself. Your TV must be hung 
by qualified technician.  Improper hanging can 
cause the TV to be unsafe.
Before you hang your TV on a wall, ensure the 
wall is suitable to carry the weight of the TV.
The connections do not have to be made 
before you hang the TV, but the cables must 
be inserted into the TV.
Wherever you place or hang the TV, ensure 
that air can circulate freely through the 
ventilation slots. Do not position the TV in a 
confined space.
If the TV is mounted on a swivel base or 
swivel arm, ensure no strain is placed on the 
power cord when the TV is swivelled. Strain 
on the power cord can loosen connections 
and cause arcing or fire.
Do not place naked flame sources such as 
lighted candles close to the TV set.
Do not place a vase filled with water on top of 
or near the TV.  Spilling water into the TV can 
result in electric shock. Do not operate the 
TV if water is spilled into the set. Unplug the  
power cord from the mains immediately and 
have the set checked by a qualified technician. 
Do not expose the TV or the batteries of the 
remote control to heat, direct sunlight, rain 
or water.
