37 Your TV is equipped with a Kensington Security Slot, to prevent it from getting stolen. An anti-theft Kensington lock has to be purchased separately. The Kensington lock is a plastic-coated steel cable with a lock. One end has to be fixed to the opening of the TV and locked with a special key. The other end is attached to a fixed point. ® Kensington and MicroSaver are registered US trademarks of ACCO World Corporation with issued registrations and pending applications in other countries throughout the world. All other registered and unregistered trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Kensington Security Slot (if present) Care of the screen Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch, mar or damage the screen permanently. And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment. Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental to the screen). Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen. When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or other soft materials like chamois soaks. Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible. Their long time contact with the screen causes deformations and colour fading. Stationary images on the TV screen 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 phosphor burn in. Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen. Examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list, 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 logo: present a problem 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; • 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. Carefully pay attention to these remarks. The guarantee does not apply to damage caused by not taking into account the above mentioned safety warnings on stationary images. Tip: reduce contrast and brightness when viewing.

Use the type number of your TV (42PF9830/10) to find this documentation and other related files. - Philips can’t be held responsible for any problems that may occur as a result of the content in this document.

Introduction This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio. Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users. To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV. &Press the =key on the remote control after having inserted a memory card or USB device and switched on the TV. éGo to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory. “Select the slideshow file and press the OKkey to start the slide show. ‘To stop a slide show, press the ‡key. General Rules • The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow files using simple tools. • All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content. • Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesnt have a global address; as a result content from a PM can never be referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself. • To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same PM. Referencing global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a non-networked CE device. The latter is however not forbidden, it is only a recommendation. • It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the directory where the slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM.
