Tips
Poor Picture
• Have you selected the correct TV
system?
Control of peripheral equipment
The infrared signals of the screen may
influence the reception sensibility of other
peripherals.
Solution: replace the batteries of the remote
control or change position of other
equipment. E.g. keep away a wireless
headphone from within a radius of 1.5 m.
How to dispose of exhausted batteries?
The batteries supplied do not contain the
heavy metals mercury and cadmium.
Nevertheless in many countries exhausted
batteries may not be disposed of with your
household waste. Please ensure you dispose of
exhausted batteries according to local
regulations.
• Is your monitor 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.
• Check if you have entered the correct
frequency. See Installation, p. 6.
• Are brightness and contrast out of
adjustment? Select Factory settings in the
Setup, General menu, p. 8 or press the
SMART a key repeatedly.
TV-Guide - Displayed time is wrong
The broadcaster on programme number one
does not transmit the correct local date and
time. Use Reshuffle in the
INSTALLATION menu to place another
broadcaster on programme number one.
TV receiver box with speakerless
monitor
In case you connect your TV receiver box
with a speakerless monitor, and without
having connected an audio receiver, all
references made in this instruction book to
sound reproduction, volume control, and
audio connections, are not applicable (except
for a headphone connection).
No stable or not synchronisedVGA
picture
Check if you have selected the correctVGA
mode in your PC. See the separate
instruction manual with the monitor.
No picture or no sound
The keys on the remote control referring to
sound have no function either.
• Are the supplied cables connected
properly? (The aerial cable to the TV
receiver box, the other aerial to your
VCR, theVGA cables to the display, the
power cables.)
• Has the childlock (p. 16) been switched
off?
• Is your PC switched on?
• Has the Centre mode been switched off?
• Do you see a black screen and the
indicator in front of the monitor lights up
green, this means that the display mode is
not supported. Switch yourVGA-source to
a correct mode.
If your problem is not solved:
Miscellaneous
Switch both your monitor and your receiver
off and then on again.
Never attempt to repair a defective
monitor or receiver yourself.

Cinema Link is a new Philips feature in which the TV, the audio
receiver and other video peripherals communicate with each other
(on condition they all are equipped with the Cinema Link
functionality and are connected via a eurocable).They automatically
offer the highest quality combination of picture and multi channel
surround sound to create your own Home Cinema.
Note:The Cinema Link
functionality is only available
with devices of the Cinema Link
(P50.3) generation !
With one key on the remote control, with which you can control all
Cinema Link products, your total Cinema Link system will be started
and the DVD or video recorder will start to play and the audio
receiver will provide the sound (on the condition Cinema link is
enabled) on behalf of the TV.
Recommended:
The TV or monitor can function as the centre speaker of your
system, making a separate centre speaker unnecessary (only in case
your TV or receiver box is equipped with a Centre IN connector).
By pressing the standby key B on the remote control for at
least 3 seconds, the complete Cinema Link system will be
switched to standby.
Do not use the AC outlet at
the back of the audio receiver
to power the DVD or the
video recorder in a Home
Cinema configuration.
Configuration of the Cinema Link peripherals
The connection diagram in the inside cover shows you how to connect the Cinema Link peripherals
with each other.
Notes:
- Besides the TV or receiver box at least one peripheral should be provided with the Cinema Link functionality to
benefit from this feature.
- To take advantage of the highest quality of multi channel Surround sound it is advisable that you have a
Cinema Link audio receiver connected.
- The peripherals connected don’t need to see the TV remote control in the Cinema Link system.The commands
given to the TV are automatically passed to the other peripherals.This allows you to put the peripherals behind
the doors of a cabinet or to place them in another room.
