DEFINITION  
High-definition television offers a picture with unprecedented crispness and clarity. The TV broadcast industry is moving toward high definition as  
the signal standard. Currently, the number of programs being broadcast in high definition is limited, but this is changing. To view high-definition programs on  
your TV, you will need to connect a satellite receiver, cable box, or set-top box that can decode HD signals.  
Resolution information  
Image resolutions are commonly referred to by a num-  
ber followed by a letter: 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i.  
Interlaced Scan  
Odd lines  
Progressive Scan  
The number in each format refers to the number of lines  
of resolution, so for example both 480i and 480p offer  
480 lines of resolution. The "i" or "p" refers to whether  
the signal is displayed using respectively interlaced or  
progressive scan. Interlaced scan breaks each frame of  
video into 2 fields, one made up of even lines and one  
made up of odd lines. The image is reproduced by draw-  
ing all odd lines first (1,3,5,…479) than all the even  
ones (2,4,6,….,480). Progressive scan, on the other hand  
reproduces an image by drawing all lines in succession  
1,2,3,4,….480).

Pre-connection Recommendations  
Positioning theTV  
Before connecting accessory devices—VCR,  
DVD player, or HD satellite receiver, for exam-  
ple—please keep the following in mind:  
• Place the TV on a flat surface. An unlevel sur-  
face may adversely affect picture performance.  
• Do not place the TV on shag carpet or any sur-  
face that will block the ventilation openings at  
the bottom of the set. Blockage will cause the  
TV to overheat and shut down.  
Situate the TV where  
it will not be exposed  
to heat or moisture.  
For safety, do not  
set objects on top  
of the TV.  
• Allow 4 to 6 inches of space behind the TV  
for ventilation.  
• An optional swivel and an optional stand are  
available for use with your TV. See your elec-  
tronics dealer.  
Allow 4 to 6 inches  
behind the TV for  
ventilation.  
• Test various locations in the room to find the  
optimal spot to locate the set for best viewing.  
• Do not place the TV in direct sunlight or near  
a heating appliance.  
Place the TV on  
a flat surface.  
• Do not expose the TV to rain or moisture.  
• To prevent any unsafe situations, do not place  
objects on top of the TV.  
Providing Protection Against Power  
Surges  
• Connect all accessory devices before you plug  
any of their power cords into the wall outlet or  
power strip. NEVER plug your TV into an  
outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.  
• Turn off the TV and/or accessory devices  
before you connect or disconnect any cables.  
• Ensure that all antennas and cables are proper-  
ly grounded. See page 3, “Important Safety  
Instructions.”  
Do not place the TV on a surface that will block  
the air filters located underneath the set.  
Protecting Accessory Devices from  
Overheating  
• Arrange accessory devices so that air can cir-  
culate freely around them.  
• Don’t stack the accessory devices. Arrange  
them to allow for good ventilation. The  
optional Philips stand provides enough room  
for two accessory devices, side by side.  
• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier,  
place it on the top shelf so the heated air from  
it will not flow around other components.  
Optional Swivel  
Optional Stand  
Connecting Cables  
Be sure to insert each cable firmly into the cor-  
rect jack.

Selecting a Picture Format Option  
Your TV’s wide screen (16:9 aspect ratio)  
Conventional 4:3 Screen Size  
delivers a home-cinema experience that isn’t  
possible with a conventional (4:3 aspect ratio)  
set. The 16:9 format of high-definition (HD)  
programs and other widescreen-format video  
sources appear more lifelike, dramatic, and  
theatrical. Black or gray bars are diminished  
or eliminated. As the television industry  
moves toward the high-definition format stan-  
dard and more HD broadcasts become avail-  
able, you will be able to see the broadcasts as  
they were intended—in 16:9 format.  
Your TVs 16:9 Screen Size  
For flexibility in viewing conventional 4:3-  
format video sources on your TV’s wide  
screen, you have the options Automatic,”  
“Super zoom,” “Panoramic,” “4:3,” “Movie  
expand 14:9,” “Movie expand 16:9,” “16:9  
subtitle,” or “Wide screen.”  
YourTVs Picture Format Options  
Automatic (not depicted)

as much as possible when the  
presence of black or gray bars is  
detected.  
NOTE: The Automatic option is disabled for

Inputs AV3–AV4 allow horizontal and vertical  
picture panning using the Cursor Left, Right,  
Up, and Down buttons. The Side input allows  
vertical picture panning; left and right panning  
with the Side input is possible when the input  
has been labeled “Game.” See pages 20 and 21  
for details on side panel connections and  
source labeling.  
Super zoom  
Removes the black or gray bars  
on the sides of a 4:3-format pic-  
ture with minimal distortion. Part  
of the top and bottom portions of  
the picture are excluded from the  
screen.  
Movie expand 14:9  
Expands the picture to 14:9 movie  
aspect ratio. Part of the top and bot-  
tom portions of the picture are  
excluded from the screen. Black or  
gray bars are shown at the left and  
right sides.  
HELPFUL HINT  
The term aspect ratio refers to the relation-  
ship between the width and height of a TV  
screen. Historically, TV screen width has  
been 33 percent greater than its height,  
amounting to a 4:3 aspect ratio. The width  
of your widescreen TV, however, is nearly  
80 percent greater than its height, which  
means its aspect ratio is 16:9. This screen  
corresponds well with the tendency of the  
eyes to feel more comfortable with fields of  
view and action planes that are horizontally  
oriented. The wide screen is also propor-  
tionally truer to the formats in which  
movies are filmed and presented in theaters.  
However, many widescreen DVDs will still  
display black bars to preserve the true the-  
atrical format.  
4:3  
Displays a conventional 4:3 pic-  
ture without change. Black or  
gray bars will show at the left and  
right sides.  
16:9 subtitle  
Zooms the picture for a full view  
of subtitles or other information  
displayed at the bottom of the  
picture. Part of the top portion of  
the picture is excluded from the  
screen.  
Movie expand 16:9  
Alters the image both horizontal-  
ly (stretched) and vertically  
(cropped) to fill the TV’s wide  
screen. Part of the top and bottom  
portions of the picture will be  
excluded from the screen.  
Wide screen  
Evenly stretches the width of the

widely. The Delta Volume control will allow  
the volume to be increased for channels with

HELPFUL HINT  
Your Cineos TV has a Double Window (DW) and a Picture-in-Picture  
Large PIP  
(PIP) mode in which it is possible to see a signal from another source with-  
out interrupting the program/video that you are looking at.  
When switching on DW or PIP mode we want you to be aware that the  
color and picture settings of the left window (for DW) respectively of the  
main screen (for PIP) are applicable to the full screen. This may result in  
the fact that colors on the right window (for DW) or the small window (for  
PIP) look different than when that signal is displayed on the main screen.  
So for instance if a disc from a DVD player is playing in the right window  
while you watch TV in the left window it may be that the colors of the  
DVD player look different from when the DVD is playing full screen.

CLEANING THE TV  
Be sure the TV is  
unplugged before  
cleaning it.  
WARNING  
To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the  
TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet  
before cleaning.  
Cleaning the Cabinet  
• Regularly dust the TV cabinet with a dry,  
nonscratching duster.  
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a  
soft, clean cloth. Even if the surfaces are  
very dirty, do not apply cleaner to them  
directly. Soak the cloth in a solution of  
cool, clean water and mild soap or deter-  
gent. Wring out the cloth and wipe the cab-  
inet surfaces clean. Then use a clean, dry  
cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.  
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation slots  
on the back cover of the set. See the next  
section on “Cleaning or Replacing the  
Filters.”  
Use a nonscratching duster.  
Soak the wiping cloth in  
cool, clean water and mild  
detergent. Then ring the  
cloth out before using.  
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or  
other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as  
they might cause permanent marring of the  
cabinet finish.  
• The television contains plastic parts. DO  
NOT use benzine, thinners, or other chemi-  
cals to clean. DO NOT use insecticide or  
other volatile substances nearby. DO NOT  
allow the TV to come into contact for  
extended periods of time with rubber or  
vinyl products.  
Don’t use chemicals on or  
near the TV.  
Cleaning the Screen  
• Use a dry soft cloth to wipe the screen. Use  
even, easy, vertical strokes. Take care not  
to scratch or damage the screen surface.  
Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything  
abrasive.

Cleaning or Replacing the Filters  
The Cineos TV has two filters that cover air  
inlets on the bottom of the set. Maintaining a  
free flow of air through the inlets is very impor-  
tant. If the air filters become dirty, clogged, or  
blocked, the temperature in the set will rise.  
Should the heat level become too high due to  
blockage, a sensor detects this, and a warning  
message appears on screen alerting you to  
check the air inlets for blockage. The message  
will be displayed for 6 seconds. It reappears  
every 15 minutes as long as the temperature  
remains too high.

Replacing the Lamp  
The Cineos TV uses a lamp with a limited  
lifetime to illuminate the picture. A Lifetime  
counter in the TV records the operating time  
of the lamp. One hundred hours before the  
lamp reaches the end of its life, a warning  
message will appear on screen. This will  
allow you to prepare to replace the lamp or  
take action right away. The message will dis-  
appear within 6 seconds. It will reappear each  
time the TV is turned on until the lamp is  
replaced.  
A blinking orange light  
in the Active Standby  
Window means that the  
lamp needs to be  
replaced.  
To order a replacement lamp, call the  
Philips Customer Care Center at  
1-800-531-0039. A Philips associate will  
be happy to assist you. The part number  
for the Philips TV replacement lamp is

Reset your CineosTV  
• Modern TVs are complicated systems which consist of multiple hardware and software subsystems which operate in conjunction  
with each other. One consequence of the increasing complexity of televisions is that they often require some additional time to  
fully power on or off as all of the subsystems must power up or down as well. Occasionally one of these subsystems may not  
fully engage or disengage before an additional function is begun- for example pressing numerous buttons on the remote before the  
set is fully powered up. In such cases, the set may appear to be frozen or non-responsive.  
If you are experiencing unexpected behavior from your Cineos TV the first possible fix is to unplug the set from the outlet for a  
minute or so. This will ensure that all subsystems are fully powered down. Then plug it back in after which the Cineos will restart  
and perform internal diagnostics which should result in normal operation.  
TV-related Checks  
TheTV wont switch on.  
• Make sure the power plug is plugged in.  
• If you’re using the TV remote control to turn the TV on, be sure the remote is in TV mode. (page *Q6)  
• Plug something else in to be sure the wall outlet (or extension cord) is receiving power.  
• The remote control could have a problem. See the troubleshooting section “Remote-related Checks” on page 74.  
• Make sure the lamp door is not ajar. The TV is designed not to operate with the lamp door open. (pages *Q1, 71)  
• If a red light is blinking on the front of the TV, the set has entered protection mode. If this happens it usually means you simply  
need to reset the TV. Unplug the TV for 60 seconds. Then plug the TV in and try to switch it on. If the light is still blinking red,  
call the Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.  
TheTV switches off unexpectedly.  
• If the lamp door is open, the TV will shut down. The TV is designed not to operate when the lamp door is ajar.  
• If a red light is blinking on the front of the TV, the set has entered protection mode. Unplug and plug the set back in a couple of  
times and try to switch it on. If the problem persists, contact the Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.  
• The Sleeptimer may have been set to turn the TV off. Turn the TV back on if desired. (page 48)  
TheTV switches on unexpectedly.  
• The On Timer may have been set. (page 49)  
An on-screen message tells you that it is time to replace the lamp.  
• The message appears on screen when the lamp has 100 hours of life left, and will reappear each time the TV is turned on until the  
lamp is replaced. Prepare to replace the lamp or take action right away. (pages 70–72)  
An on-screen message instructs you to check the air inlets for blockage.  
• Check the air inlets and filters for blockage and clean or replace the air filters as necessary. (pages 68–69)  
You have a picture but no sound.  
• Make sure Mute is not on. (page *Q6)  
• The TV speakers may be turned off. Make sure the Center Channel Amp Switch on the back of the TV is in the INT position.  
(page 7)  
*Q refers to the Quick Use and Setup Guide that came with your TV.

Troubleshooting  
TV-related Checks (continued)  
You have no picture.  
• If you have made a connection to the TV’s Tuner jack be sure to use Autoprogram. (page *Q8).  
• If you want to view materials from an accessory device (DVD player, VCR, or satellite receiver, for example) be sure you have  
selected the input source to which you have connected the device—AV1, AV2, AV3, AV4, AV5, AV6, or Side. (pages *Q4, *Q6,  
10–16, 18, 20)  
• Make sure you have made connections correctly. (pages *Q3–5, 10–16, 18, 20)  
You have no picture and no sound.  
• If you see a blinking orange light on the front of the set, this means that the lamp needs to be replaced. (pages 70–72)  
You see scrolling images.  
• Make sure you have made connections correctly. (pages *Q3–5, 10–16, 18, 20)  
TV-related Checks (continued)  
The picture appears doubled or tripled.  
• If you are using an antenna, be sure it is facing in the correct direction. Also, check to see if it may be receiving signals that are  
being reflected off of mountains or buildings.  
The picture shakes or is not clear.  
• If you are using an antenna, make sure it is not broken or shorted, and make sure the antenna cable is connected properly and  
securely.  
• If you are using a VCR and selecting channels on the TV, make sure the TV/VCR mode on the VCR is set to TV.  
The picture has no colors or colors are not correct.  
• Make sure you have made connections correctly. (pages *Q3–5, 10–16, 18, 20)  
• If you have connected accessory equipment, such as an HD satellite receiver, make sure the color setting on the accessory equip-  
ment is correct. See the user manual for the HD satellite receiver.  
TheTV sound has an unusual quality.  
• Check the TV’s Equalizer control to be sure it is set to the option you want. (page 39)  
Remote-related Checks  
The remote control does not work.  
• Make sure nothing is blocking the path between the remote control and the TV or accessory device you want to operate.  
• Make sure you point the remote directly at the TV or accessory device you want to operate.  
• If you want to operate the TV, make sure the remote is in TV mode. If you want to operate an accessory device, program the  
remote for the device if necessary and make sure the remote is in the appropriate mode for the device. (pages *Q6, 22–26)  
• Make sure you have installed the batteries correctly. (page *Q6)  
• The batteries could be dead. When the batteries in the remote run low, the remote will send a “Battery Low” command to the TV.  
The TV will then display a message on the screen reminding you to replace the batteries as soon as possible.  
You may want to try taking the remote batteries out and putting them back in. NOTE: After taking the batteries out, you may  
need to reprogram the remote for use with accessory devices.
