9 Troubleshooting
This section describes commonly encountered
issues and accompanying solutions.
General TV issues
The TV does not switch on:
Disconnect the power cable from the
power outlet. Wait for one minute then
reconnect it.
Check that the power cable is securely
connected.
The remote control is not working properly:
Check that the remote control batteries
are correctly inserted according to the
+/- orientation.
Replace the remote control batteries if
they are  at or weak.
Clean the remote control and TV sensor
lens.
The standby light on the TV blinks red:
Disconnect the power cable from the
power outlet. Wait until the TV cools
down before reconnecting the power
cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact
Philips Consumer Care.
You forgot the code to unlock the child lock
feature
Enter ‘8888’.
The TV menu is in the wrong language
Change the TV menu to your preferred
language.
When turning the TV on/off/to standby, you
hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis:
No action is required. The creaking sound
is normal expansion and contraction of
the TV as it cools and warms up. This
does not impact performance.
EN
25
If a HDMI-to-DVI adaptor or HDMI to
DVI cable is used, check that an additional
audio cable is connected to AUDIO L/R
or AUDIO IN (mini-jack only).
Computer connection issues
The computer display on the TV is not stable:
Check that a supported resolution and
refresh rate is selected on the computer.
Set the TV picture format to unscaled.
Contact us

the FAQs for this TV at www.philips.com/
support.
If the problem remains unresolved, contact
Philips Consumer Care in your country as
listed in this User Manual.
Warning
Do not attempt to repair the TV yourself. This
may cause severe injury, irreparable damage to
your TV or void your warranty.
Note
Make a note of your TV model and serial
number before you contact Philips. These
numbers are printed on the back of the TV
and on the packaging.
The picture does not  t the screen; it is too
big or too small:
Try using a different picture format.
The picture position is incorrect:
Picture signals from some devices may
not t the screen correctly. Check the
signal output of the device.
Sound issues
There is a picture but no sound from the TV:
Note
If no audio signal is detected, the TV

Check that all cables are properly
connected.
Check that the volume is not set to 0.
Check that the sound is not muted.
There is a picture but the sound quality is
poor:
Check that the sound settings are
correctly set.

centre.
HDMI connection issues

Note that HDCP support can delay the
time taken for a TV to display content
from a HDMI device.
If the TV does not recognise the HDMI
device and no picture is displayed, try
switching the source from one device to
another and back again.
If there are intermittent sound
disruptions, check that output settings
from the HDMI device are correct.
