Care of the screen
Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive solvent as it
can damage the TV screen.
Poor Picture (in analogue mode)
• Have you selected the correct TV
system?
• Is your TV or house aerial located too
close to loudspeakers, non-earthed
audio equipment or neon lights, etc.?
• Mountains or high buildings can cause
double pictures or ghost images.
Sometimes you can improve the picture
quality by changing the direction of the
aerial.
• Is the picture or teletext
unrecognisable? Check if you have
entered the correct frequency. See
Installation, p. 11.
• Are brightness and contrast out of
adjustment? Select Factory settings in
the Setup menu, p. 13.
• Sometimes poor picture quality is
possible when having activated an S-VHS
camera or camcorder connected to the
right side of your TV and another
peripheral is connected to
EXT1 or
EXT2 at the same time. In this case
switch off one of the other peripherals.
Bad Picture (in digital mode)
If the picture freezes a lot, or if there is a
frequent block effect on screen, there is a
problem with your reception or a high
level of impulse interference.
If you are an ONdigital subscriber, please
contact ONdigital customer services on
0870 600 9696.
If your are not an ONdigital subscriber,
but have difficulties please contact the
Philips digital help line on 0870 606 0117.
No picture
• Is the aerial connected properly?
• Are the plugs tightly connected in the
aerial socket?
• Is the aerial cable in good condition and
does it have suitable plugs?
• Are the connection facilities to a possible
second TV in good condition? If in doubt,
consult your dealer.
No sound
• No sound on any channel? Check the
volume isn’t at minimum.
• Is the sound interrupted with the mute
key
¬?
• Check if your speaker configuration
corresponds with the selections made in
the Surround Settings menu, p. 20. E.g. is
your amplifier switched on when you
have 2 extra front speakers connected?
• No sound from the rear speakers or
the centre speakers? Select an
appropriate surround mode, according
to the broadcasted sound signal or
adjust the volume. See Surround Modes,
p. 20.
Remote control
If your TV no longer responds to the
remote control, the batteries may be
dead.You can still use the
M key and the
-/+ keys at the top of your TV.
Menu
Have you selected the wrong menu? Press
the same key again to exit from the menu.
No solution
Switch your TV off and then on again
once.
Never attempt to repair a defective
TV yourself.
Check with your dealer or call a TV
technician.
End of life directives

producing environmentally-friendly in
green focal areas.Your new TV contains
materials which can be recycled and
reused.At the end of its life specialised
companies can dismantle the discarded TV
to concentrate the reusable materials and
to minimise the amount of materials to be
disposed of.
Please ensure you dispose of your old TV
according to local regulations.
How to dispose of dead batteries?
The batteries supplied do not contain the
heavy metals mercury and cadmium.

batteries may not be disposed of with your
household waste. Please ensure you dispose
of dead batteries according to local
regulations.
