better picture quality.
3.2 Common Interface Slot
Warning
Switch off your TV before any module is
inserted in the Common Interface slot.
Note
This functionality is only available in certain
countries.
To receive scrambled DTV signals you will need
a CA (Conditional Access) module and a Smart
card provided by the service provider.
• A CA module can enable additional services,
for example Pay TV.
Contact your Common Interface service
provider to get more information about these
modules.
• Although CA module types may vary
dependent on the manufacturer, each one of
the CA modules supports a certain kind of
encryption system.
Your TV supports CA modules to work with
the DVB-T standard.
Note that a smart card may only be valid for a
single broadcast channel.
• CA modules and smart cards are neither
supplied nor optional accessories from Philips.
The CA module is responsible for the
messages and texts on screen. In case of
failure or strange behaviour, you must call
your CI service broadcaster.
3 Before you start
Warning
Do not insert the mains cord into the mains at
the bottom of the TV and in a wall socket or
hang the TV on the wall before all connections
are made.
Before you switch on your TV, connect all your
peripheral equipment. See 'To make video and
audio connections', p. 43.
