 Important 
Safety 
Read and understand all instructions before 
you use your TV. If damage is caused by 
failure to follow instructions, the warranty 
does not apply. 
Risk of electric shock or fire! 
 Never expose the TV to rain or water. 
Never place liquid containers, such as 
vases, near the TV. If liquids are spilt on 
or into the TV, disconnect the TV from 
the power outlet immediately. Contact 
Philips Consumer Care to have the TV 
checked before use. 
 Never insert objects into the ventilation 
slots or other openings on the TV. 
 When the TV is swivelled, ensure that 
no strain is exerted on the power cord. 
Strain on the power cord can loosen 
connections and cause arcing. 
 Never place the TV, remote control or 
batteries near naked flames or other 
heat sources, including direct sunlight. 
To prevent the spread of fire, keep 
candles or other flames away from the 
TV, remote control and batteries at all 
times. 
 
Risk of short circuit or fire! 
 Never expose the remote control or 
batteries to rain, water or excessive 
heat. 
 Avoid force coming onto power plugs. 
Loose power plugs can cause arcing or 
fire. 
Risk of injury or damage to the TV! 
 Two people are required to lift and 
carry a TV that weighs more than 25kg 
or 55lbs. 
 When stand mounting the TV, use only 
the supplied stand. Secure the stand to 
the TV tightly. Place the TV on a flat, 
level surface that can support the 
combined weight of the TV and the 
stand. 
 When wall mounting the TV, use only a 
wall mount that can support the weight 
of the TV. Secure the wall mount to a 
wall that can support the combined 
weight of the TV and wall mount. 
Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. bears 
no responsibility for improper wall 
mounting that result in accident, injury 
or damage. 
 Before you connect the TV to the 
power outlet, ensure that the power 
voltage matches the value printed on 
the back of the TV. Never connect the 
TV to the power outlet if the voltage is 
different. 
Risk of injury to children! 
Follow these precautions to prevent the TV 
from toppling over and causing injury to 
children: 
 Never place the TV on a surface 
covered by a cloth or other material 
that can be pulled away. 
 Ensure that no part of the TV hangs 
over the edge of the surface. 
 Never place the TV on tall furniture, 
such as a bookcase, without anchoring 
both the furniture and TV to the wall 
or a suitable support. 
 Educate children about the dangers of 
climbing on furniture to reach the TV. 
Risk of swallowing batteries! 
 The product/remote control may 
contain a coin-type battery, which can 
be swallowed. Keep the battery out of 
reach of children at all times! 
  
						

							  
EN      8           
Risk of overheating! 
 Never install the TV in a confined 
space. Always leave a space of at least 4 
inches or 10 cm around the TV for 
ventilation. Ensure that curtains or 
other objects never cover the 
ventilation slots on the TV. 
Risk of injury, fire or power cord damage! 
 Never place the TV or any objects on 
the power cord. 
 To easily disconnect the TV power 
cord from the power outlet, ensure 
that you have full access to the power 
cord at all times. 
 When you disconnect the power cord, 
always pull the plug, never the cable. 
 Disconnect the TV from the socket and 
aerial before lightning storms. During 
lightning storms, never touch any part 
of the TV, power cord or aerial cable. 
Risk of hearing damage! 
 Avoid using earphones or headphones 
at high volumes or for prolonged 
periods of time. 
Low temperatures 
 If the TV is transported in temperatures 
below 5°C or 41°F, unpack the TV and 
wait until the TV temperature matches 
room temperature before connecting 
the TV to the power outlet. 
Screen care 
 Risk of damage to the TV screen! 
Never touch, push, rub or strike the 
screen with any object. 
 Unplug the TV before cleaning. 
 Clean the TV and frame with a soft 
damp cloth. Never use substances such 
as alcohol, chemicals or household 
cleaners on the TV. 
 To avoid deformations and colour 
fading, wipe off water drops as soon as 
possible. 
 Avoid stationary images as much as 
possible. Stationary images are images 
that remain onscreen for extended 
periods of time. Stationary images 
include onscreen menus, black bars, 
time displays, etc. If you must use 
stationary images, reduce screen 
contrast and brightness to avoid screen 
damage. 
Environmental efforts 
Energy efficiency

sensor lowers the brightness of the TV 
screen when the surrounding light 
darkens. 
 Low standby power: The advanced 
power circuitry brings down the power 
consumption of the TV to an extremely 
low level, without losing out on the 
constant standby functionality.
