the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Use only RF shielded cable that was supplied with the monitor when connecting this monitor to a computer device.
To prevent damage which may result in fire or shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or excessive

POLISH CENTER FOR TESTING AND CERTIFICATION NOTICE
The equipment should draw power from a socket with an attached protection circuit (a three-prong socket). All
equipment that works together (computer, monitor, printer, and so on) should have the same power supply source.
The phasing conductor of the room’s electrical installation should have a reserve short-circuit protection device in
the form of a fuse with a nominal value no larger than 16 amperes (A).
To completely switch off the equipment, the power supply cable must be removed from the power supply socket,
which should be located near the equipment and easily accessible.
A protection mark “B” confirms that the equipment is in compliance with the protection usage requirements of
standards PN-93/T-42107 and PN-89/E-06251.
ELECTRIC, MAGNETIC AND ELECTRONMAGNETIC FIELDS (“EMF”)
1. Philips Royal Electronics manufactures and sells many products targeted at consumers, which, like any electronic
apparatus, in general have the ability to emit and receive electromagnetic signals.
2. One of Philips’ leading Business Principles is to take all necessary health and safety measures for our products, to
comply with all applicable legal requirements and to stay well within the EMF standards applicable at the time of
producing the products.
3. Philips is committed to develop, produce and market products that cause no adverse health effects.
4. Philips confirms that if its products are handled properly for their intended use, they are safe to use according to

User Manual BDL3231/BDL4231
INFORMATION FOR UK ONLY
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Important:
This apparatus is supplied with an approved moulded 13A plug. To change a
fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362 5A,A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off
and an appropriate 3-pin plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug
without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be
greater than 5A.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard
should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following
code:
BLUE - “NEUTRAL” (“N”)
BROWN - “LIVE” (“L”)
GREEN & YELLOW - “EARTH” (“E”)
1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to the terminal in
the plug which is marked with the letter “E” or by the Earth symbol or
coloured GREEN or GREEN AND YELLOW.
2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter “N” or coloured BLACK.
3. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which marked with
the letter “L” or coloured RED.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped
over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the three wires.

SMARTPORT
Use cursor LEFT/RIGHT button to toggle between OFF, SP-SPI, and
SP-I2C. For normal stand-alone applications select OFF under the
SMARTPORT.
Important note:
The COMMUNICATION menu shows items that are relevant for system integrators that develop their own cards (also
called Smart Cards or Data Communication Modules, DCM’s) and for the use of Philips branded Smart Cards. These items can
be relevant in case a Philips or third party Smart Card is used that requires a certain setup. The card slot of the set has
several by the industry accepted serial interfaces (SP-SPI and SP-I2C) of which only one will be used at the same time.
Please consult the User Manual of the applicable card for the correct COMMUNICATION setup.
The RS232 function is independently available of SP-SPI and SP-I2C and is always switched "ON".
The communication SPEED (baud rate) can be adjusted to the required baud rate of the external control system.

• The PC text quality is optimum in WXGA mode (1360 x 768, 60Hz).
• When this LCD is used as a PC display, 24-bit color is supported (over 16.7 million colors).
• Your PC display screen might appear different depending on the manufacture (and your particular version of
Windows). Check your PC instruction book for information about connecting your PC to a display.
• If a vertical and horizontal frequency-select mode exists, select 60Hz (vertical) and 31.5KHz (horizontal). In some
cases, abnormal signals (such as stripes) might appear on the screen when the PC power is turned off (or if the PC
is disconnected). If so, press the INPUT button to enter the video mode. Also, make sure that the PC is connected.
• When horizontal synchronous signals seem irregular in RGB mode, check PC power saving mode or cable
connections.
• The display settings table complies to the IBM/VESA standards, and based on the analog input.
• The DVI support mode is regarded as same to the PC support mode.
• The best timing for the vertical frequency to each mode is 60Hz.

CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING
8.1
CLEANING
Cautions When Using the Display
• Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of
the display. Top of display is usually very hot due to the high temperature
of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or
personal injuries may occur if any body parts are brought too close. Placing
any object near the top of the display could also result in heat related
damages to the object as well as the display itself.
• Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the display. Moving the
display with its cables attached may damage the cables and thus case fire
or electric shock danger.
• Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution
before carrying out any type of cleaning or maintenance procedure.
Front Panel Cleaning Instructions
• The front of the display has been specially treated. Wipe the surface gently
using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
• If the surface is particular dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a mild
detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Wipe the
surface of the display to remove dirt. Then use a dry cloth of the same type
to dry.
• Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingers or hard objects
of any kind.
• Do not use volatile substances such as insert sprays, solvents and thinners.
Cabinet Cleaning Instructions
• If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the cabinet is extremely dirty, soak a lint-free cloth in a mild detergent
solution. Wring the cloth to remove as much moisture as possible. Wipe
the cabinet. Use another dry cloth to wipe over until the surface is dry.
• Do not allow any water or detergent to come into contact with the surface
of the display. If water or moisture gets inside the unit, operating problems,
electrical and shock hazards may result.
• Do not scratch or hit the cabinet with fingers or hard objects of any kind.
• Do not use volatile substances such as insert sprays, solvents and thinners
on the cabinet.
• Do not place anything made from rubber or PVC near the cabinet for any
extended periods of time.
