This section shows you how to make a basic TV connectionusing a cable TV or antenna signal.

If you have cable TV service, you’ll simply connect the coaxialcable lead-in from the cable TV company to your TV. If you intendto connect a VHF/UHF antenna, you may need a 300- to 75-ohmadapter, which is not supplied with your TV.

NOTE: You should be able to buy optional accessories such as aVHF/UHF antenna or a 300- to 75-ohm adapter at most storesthat sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Centerat 1-800-531-0039.

1 Connect the Cable TV or antenna signal to the ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the rear of the TV.

NOTE: If you are using an antenna with a round coaxialcable (75Ω), then you are ready to connect to the back ofthe TV. If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300Ω),you must first attach the antenna wires on a 300- to 75-ohm adapter. Then push the round end of the adapter ontothe ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the rear of the TV.

2 Insert the TV’s power plug into the wall power outlet.

ANTENNA OR CABLE TV

BEST VIEWING

The major benefit of this projection television is its large view-ing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various

locations in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing.

NOTE: Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the per-forated back cover of the set.

To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes,and increased chance of set failure, do not placethe TV where temperatures can become excessivelyhot—for example, in direct sunlight or near aheating appliance.

Magnetic fields, such as those of external speak-ers, may cause the picture to distort if the speak-ers are placed too close to the television. Movethe magnetic field source away from the TV untilthere is no picture distortion.

CABLES AND CONNECTORS

If you are new to making TV hookups, you may want to readthis section. (The cables and connectors discussed are not sup-

plied with your set. You can buy them at most stores that sellaudio or video products. Or call our Customer Care Center at1-800-531-0039.)

This publication provides you with examples of basic connections.See pages 6–15 in the Directions for Use manual for more infor-mation and connection examples.A 75-ohm coaxial cable connects signalsfrom an antenna or a cable TV companyto the antenna jack on the back of the TV.Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

A two-way signal splitter enables you totake a single antenna or cable TV signaland supply it to two different inputs.

A 300- to 75-ohm twin-leadadapter accepts the antennacables (called twin-lead wires)from an antenna, allowing youto connect the antenna signal tothe TV.

Video and audio cableswith standard RCA(phono) connectors con-nect the video and audiojacks of accessorydevices such as VCRsand DVD players to thejacks on the TV.

To simplify making connections, the connectorsare usually color coded. The jacks on your TV arelikewise color coded to match the colors of theconnectors. The coding is as follows: yellow for

video (composite) and red and white for the rightand left audio channels, respectively. Use an audiocable with a white connector when making mono,or nonstereo, connections. The connectors ofvideo cables used to connect component video orRGB (high-resolution) jacks are often color codedred, green, and blue. Component video connec-tions provide you with the highest possible colorand picture resolution.

An S-Video cable connectsdevices such as DVD players,VCRs, or camcorders to yourTV. S-Video provides better picture performancethan regular (composite) video connections. S-Video cables can be used only with S-Video-com-patible accessory devices.

Your TV remote is capable of working notonly your TV but also other infrared

remote (IR) controlled devices such as VCRs,cable TV converter boxes, satellite receivers,DVD players, and laser-disc players.

If you want to use your TV remote to oper-ate a VCR or other accessory device, youwill need to perform this initial checkexplained in this section. You may also needto go to the sections on the “Code-entryMethod” and the “Search Method” in thepages that follow.

1 Press the VCR or ACC(essory)mode button on the TV remote forthe desired accessory device category.

NOTE: Pressing the VCR mode but-ton allows access to product codes forVCRs. Pressing the ACC(essory)mode button allows access to theproduct codes for cable TV convert-ers, satellite receivers, DVD players,and laser-disc players.

2 Point the TV remote toward thedesired accessory device and pressthe POWER button.

Does the remote turn the accessorydevice on?

If yes, and try other function but-tons on the TV remote. With a VCR,for example, try the Play, Stop, andRewind buttons, for example. (Seepage 21 for information on how theremote buttons correspond with acces-sory device functions.) If they alsowork the accessory device, then theremote is ready and no further stepsare needed.

If not, do the following:

Look up a four-digit remote codenumber on pages 19 or 20 for yourbrand of accessory device. Then gothrough the simple steps for entering afour-digit code as explained onpage 17.

USING THE SEARCH METHOD TO PROGRAM YOUR TV REMOTE

Your TV remote can be set to work variousaccessory devices (VCRs, cable convert-

ers, and satellite receivers, for example) bywhat is called the Search Method.

NOTE: The Search Method works only withdevices equipped with channel-display indi-cators on the devices themselves or the abili-ty to show channel numbers on the TVscreen. If the Code-entry Method (shown inthe previous section) did not enable your TVremote to work your accessory device, thenfollow the easy steps listed below. Pleaseread the steps once before performing them.

1 Turn on the desired device. Pressand hold down the VCR or ACC(for an accessory device other thana VCR) mode button on the TVremote. Then press and hold down theSURF button as you hold down thedesired mode (VCR or ACC) button.

NOTE: For correct operation, youmust press and hold down the desiredmode (VCR or ACC) button first andthen press and hold down the SURFbutton second.

While holding down the SURF andthe desired mode (VCR or ACC)buttons simultaneously, point theremote toward the accessory deviceand continue holding the buttonsdown.

2 Watch the Channel Indicator onyour accessory device. Channel num-bers will scan up when the TV remotehas identified the correct code foryour accessory device. This may takeseveral minutes.

3 Release the mode (VCR or ACC)and SURF buttons as soon as chan-nel numbers start to scan up. Thescanning means that your TV remotehas found the code for your accessorydevice.

NOTE: If no channel change happensafter several minutes, repeat steps 1 and2. Then if a channel change still does notoccur, the remote will not work with thedesired accessory device.

BEGIN


• The remote’s back light will blinkas the remote moves through itsproduct code list. After the remoteidentifies the product code foryour accessory device and yourelease the remote buttons, theback light will blink twice.

• Your TV remote may locate theaccessory device’s code quickly orwithin several minutes.

• Don’t let the accessory devicescan up more than five channelswhen the correct code is found—the remote may pass up the rightcode and have to repeat the searchcycle.

MOVIE RATINGS(MOTION PICTURE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA)

The AutoLock™ feature can help par-ents control what their children watch

on TV. AutoLock™ does this by using thecontent advisories sent by broadcastersor other program providers. After youprogram AutoLock™, it can respond tothe content advisories and block pro-grams that contain content that you mayconsider objectionable—offensive lan-guage, violence, or sexual situations. Youcan also use AutoLock™ to block chan-nels that you don’t want your children towatch.

In this section, you’ll learn how to blockchannels and programming that is notrated, is unrated, or has no rating. Youwill also find out how to turn these block-ing features on or off. Following on thispage are brief explanations ofAutoLock™ terms and program ratings.

Terms

BLOCKING control—can be thoughtof as the “master switch” forAutoLock™. This control affects the set-tings you have chosen for blocking pro-grams according to movie ratings or TVratings, or for blocking programs thathave no rating or are unrated. When theBLOCKING control is OFF, the blockingor censoring of programs is disabled.When the BLOCKING control is ON,blocking will occur according to the set-tings you have chosen.

BLOCK UNRATED control—if set toON, blocks all unrated programs.

Unrated programming consists of thekind of shows that the MPAA (MotionPicture Association of America) or theTV broadcasters have chosen not to rate.

COMPATIBILITY INFORMATION FOR THE TV’S HIGH-DEFINITION INPUTS

Appendix A

AAppendix

The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are designed toaccept high-definition signal standards 480p and1080i as specified by the Electronic IndustriesAssociation. They are compatible with some digi-tal equipment having RGB outputs with “sync ongreen” or RGB with “separate H and V sync.”As with HD component video signals, outputstandards may vary by manufacturer. Refer to thedirections-for-use manual for the receiver beforeconnecting.

When the Inputs Are Used with Component Video Signals

Y INPUT: 1.0 Vp-p (includes sync), 75 ohmsPr INPUT: 700m Vp-p, 75 ohmsPb INPUT: 700m Vp-p, 75 ohms

NOTES:The Pb INPUT jack can also receive signals from outputs labeled Cb or B-Y.The Pr INPUT jack can also receive signals from outputs labeled Cr or R-Y.

When the Inputs Are Used with RGB Video Signals

G/Y: 1.0 Vp-p, 75 ohms (compatible with sync on green)R/Pr: 700 mVp-p, 75 ohmsB/Pb: 700 mVp-p, 75 ohmsH: 3 Vp-p ± 1.0 V, 1 kohm (when using separate H and V sync)V: 3 Vp-p ± 1.0 V, 1 kohm (when using separate H and V sync).

• No industry standards have been estab-lished for HD television RGB signal sys-tems, timing, synchronization, and signalstrengths. The HD INPUT-AV 4 RGBinputs on your Philips TV will not becompatible with all digital equipment thatoffers RGB outputs. If the digital equip-ment you want to connect offers bothcomponent video and RGB, componentvideo is the suggested type of connectionto use.

• Your TV’s onscreen INSTALL submenuprovides the option of switching theHD INPUT-AV 4 signal source betweenYPbPr and RGB color space settings.The option is available only when haveselected the AV4 signal source (using theAV button on the remote or the SourceSelect button on the TV). YPbPr is thedefault setting. See page 56.

CARE AND CLEANING

General Information: Care and Cleaning

WARNING Concerning Stationary Images onthe TV Screen:

Do not leave stationary or “letterbox” imageson screen for extended periods of time.Thiscan cause uneven picture-tube aging.

Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of picturesthat contain constantly moving and changing images that fill thescreen. Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen forextended periods of time, or to display the same images onscreen too frequently, because subtle ghost images can be lefton the picture tubes. Avoid showing the same stationary imagesmore than 15 percent of your total viewing in any one week.Sources of stationary images may be DVD discs, laser discs,video games, CD-i discs, videotapes, digital television boxes,broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, and oth-ers. Here are some examples of stationary images (this is notan all-inclusive list; you may encounter others in your view-ing):

• DVD menus—listings of DVD disc content

• “Letterbox” black borders—black bars shown along theedges of the picture when a widescreen (16:9) movie isplayed on TV

• Video-game images and scoreboards

• Television station logos—present a problem if they arebright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics areless likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube

• Stock-market tickers—presented at the bottom of the TVscreen

• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays—bright andshown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on theTV screen.

All picture tubes age with use, with their light output diminish-ing over time. But by maintaining normal use—mixing televi-sion picture types—you will create conditions in the tubes ageat an even rate. The result will be a TV picture that is evenlybright over the entire screen.

PLACEMENT OF THE TV• To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and

increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV wheretemperatures can become excessively hot; for example, indirect sunlight or near a heating appliance.

• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforatedback cover of the set.

CLEANING

• To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV is unpluggedfrom the electrical outlet before cleaning.

• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster tokeep the TV clean.

• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage thescreen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anythingabrasive. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the frontscreen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even,easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.

Specially designed screen-cleaning kits are also available.These kits contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed toget into the ridges of the TV screen. Purchase the kits atstores that sell electronics. Or call our Customer Care Centerat 1-800-531-0039.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or spongedampened in a solution of cool, clear water and a mild soapor detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in theback cover of the set.

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals onor near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marringof the cabinet finish.
