USER MANUAL 26HF9472 PHILIPS

Information for users in the UK (not applicable outside the UK) Positioning the TV For the best results, choose a position where light does not fall directly on the screen, and at some distance away from radiators or other sources of heat. Leave a space of at least 5 cm all around the TV for ventilation, making sure that curtains, cupboards etc. cannot obstruct the air flow through the ventilation apertures. The TV is intended for use in a domestic environment only and should never be operated or stored in excessively hot or humid atmospheres. Interference The Department of Trade and Industry operates a Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV license holders improve reception of BBS and IBA programmes where they are being spoilt by interference. If your dealer cannot help, ask at a main Post Office for the booklet “How to Improve Television and Radio Reception”. Mains Connection Before connecting the TV to the mains, check that the mains supply voltage corresponds to the voltage printed on the type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If the mains voltage is different, consult your dealer. Important Should it become necessary to replace the mains fuse, this must be replaced with a fuse of the same value as indicated on the plug. 1. Remove fuse cover and fuse. 2. The replacement fuse must comply with BS 1362 and have the ASTA approval mark. If the fuse is lost, make contact with your retailer in order to verify the correct type. 3. Refit the fuse cover In order to maintain conformity to the EMC directive, the mains plug on this product must not be removed. Connecting the aerial at the back of the set. An inferior aerial is The aerial should be connected to the socket marked likely to result in a poor, perhaps unstable picture with ghost images and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft or set-top aerials are often inadequate. Your dealer will know from experience the most suitable type for your locality. Should you wish to use the set in conjunction with other equipment, which connects to the aerial socket such as TV games, or a video camera it is recommended that these be connected via a combiner unit to avoid repeated connection and disconnection of the aerial plug. Fitting the stand (if provided) Use only the stand provided with the set, making sure that the fixings are properly tightened. A diagram showing how to assemble the stand is packed with the stand. Never use a make-shift stand, or legs fixed with woodscrews.

When the set is in the Standard Security Mode, the Set-up Menu may be accessed either with an Institutional Set-up Remote Control, or with a guest remote control (like the RC2886) by pressing the following Remote Control keys in sequence: (consult Philips iTV)

Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch, mar or damage the screen permanently. 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. Warning concerning stationary images on the TV screen (42” Plasma) A characteristic of Plasma Display 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. Warning concerning VGA/DVI display mode As this product processes in VGA/DVI mode, some diagonal lines may be seen under circumstances of environmental interference. This will not affect the computer signal performance that displays in VGA/DVI mode. Environmental • Your television contains material that can be recycled and reused by specialized companies. Please find out about local regulations on the disposal of your old television set. Pay particular attention to the disposal of exhausted batteries. • Your television consumes energy in the stand-by mode. Energy consumption contributes to air and water pollution. We advise you to switch off your television overnight instead of leaving it in stand-by mode.

To mount the supplied stand and/or wall mount bracket, refer to separate instructions. Make sure that the wall mount is fixed securely so that it meets safety standards.

Make sure that air can circulate freely through the ventilation slots

To prevent any unsafe situations, no naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on or in the vicinity. Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water. The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on it. Insert the aerial plug firmly into the aerial socket at the bottom of the TV.
