Today, most broadcasters in Europe, are offering teletext pages containing
their programmes schedule of today.These pages can be requested by
switching the TV to Teletext Guide.
An increasing number of broadcasters are offering an extended programme
guide service called
NEXTVIEW. NEXTVIEW is a new way of presenting
programme schedules and offers more features than common teletext.
With
NEXTVIEW it is possible to show for instance all the movies coming
tonight.
Both facilities are integrated in this TV:
NEXTVIEW and Teletext Guide. If a TV
channel supports
NEXTVIEW then the TV will automatically present the
NEXTVIEW programme schedule. If the TV channel supports just teletext, then
the TV will switch automatically to Teletext Guide. Both facilities are offering
the same functions: record, remind and info. However in case of Teletext
Guide the broadcaster is responsible for the availability of these functions.
You can search for the programmes you want to watch 24 hours per day
(max. 7 days). It is also possible to search for a programme by theme, e.g.
sport, movie, etc. Once a programme has been selected it can be tagged, to
remind you, or to record on the video recorder automatically (provided the
video recorder is equipped with
NEXTVIEWLink), once, daily, weekly or series.
Teletext Guide/
NEXTVIEW also allows direct access to detailed information
about programmes if provided by the broadcaster.
The broadcaster is responsible for the content of the information.The TV is
responsible for the capture of that information and for the presentation to the user.
Use of the Teletext guide/nexTView menus
& Press the GUIDE key on the remote control to display/cancel the Teletext
guide/
NEXTVIEW menu.

Care of the screen
Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive solvent as it
can damage the TV screen.
Poor Picture (in analogue mode)
Have you selected the correct TV
system?
Is your TV 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.
Is the picture or teletext
unrecognisable? Check if you have
entered the correct frequency. See
Installation, p. 11.
Are brightness and contrast out of
adjustment? Select Factory settings in
the Setup menu, p. 13.
Sometimes poor picture quality is
possible when having activated an S-VHS
camera or camcorder connected to the
right side of your TV and another
peripheral is connected to
EXT1 or
EXT2 at the same time. In this case
switch off one of the other peripherals.
Bad Picture (in digital mode)
If the picture freezes a lot, or if there is a
frequent block effect on screen, there is a
problem with your reception or a high
level of impulse interference.
If you are an ONdigital subscriber, please
contact ONdigital customer services on
0870 600 9696.
If your are not an ONdigital subscriber,
but have difficulties please contact the
Philips digital help line on 0870 606 0117.
No picture
Is the aerial connected properly?
Are the plugs tightly connected in the
aerial socket?
Is the aerial cable in good condition and
does it have suitable plugs?
Are the connection facilities to a possible
second TV in good condition? If in doubt,
consult your dealer.
No sound
No sound on any channel? Check the
volume isnt at minimum.
Is the sound interrupted with the mute
key
¬?
Check if your speaker configuration
corresponds with the selections made in
the Surround Settings menu, p. 20. E.g. is
your amplifier switched on when you
have 2 extra front speakers connected?
No sound from the rear speakers or
the centre speakers? Select an
appropriate surround mode, according
to the broadcasted sound signal or
adjust the volume. See Surround Modes,
p. 20.

remote control, the batteries may be
dead.You can still use the
M key and the
-/+ keys at the top of your TV.
Menu
Have you selected the wrong menu? Press
the same key again to exit from the menu.
No solution
Switch your TV off and then on again
once.
Never attempt to repair a defective
TV yourself.
Check with your dealer or call a TV
technician.

Tips
41Glossary
100 Hz
100 Hertz provides a superior solution to
the problem of picture flicker which is
particularly noticeable with larger screen
sizes. In a conventional TV, the picture area is
scanned 50 times a second (50 Hertz) a
frequency which is still detectable by the
human eye in the form of a flickering picture.
In 100 Hertz sets, the picture area is
scanned at a rate of 100 times per second
(100 Hertz).At this frequency, the eye
cannot detect flicker, resulting in a clearer
picture which is more relaxing to the eye.
Automatic Channel Installation (ACI)

same order as offered by your cable
company, provided of course that the data is

programme number and programme name.
With ACI, channel installation is fully
automatic, simple and fast.
Child Lock

TV.
Digital Scan
If you look at a television screen you will see

stable image.
