6 Troubleshooting

General issues

The TV does not switch on:

Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait for one minute then reconnect it.

Make sure that the power cable is securely connected.

The TV does not respond to remote control or front controls when switched on:

The TV requires some time to start up. During this time, the TV does not respond to the remote control or front controls. This is normal behaviour.

When you are turning the TV on, off or to standby, you hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis:

No action is required. The creaking sound is due to the normal expansion and contraction of the TV as it cools and warms up. This does not affect performance.

When the TV is in standby, a startup splash screen is displayed, then returns to standby mode:

This is normal behaviour. When the TV is disconnected and reconnected to the power supply, the startup screen is displayed at the next startup.

To switch on the TV from standby, press on the remote control or press any key on the TV.

The standby light on the TV blinks red:

Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait until the TV cools down before you reconnect the power cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact Philips Consumer Care.

You forgot the 4-digit code to unlock the channel blocking feature (child lock):

Enter ‘8888’.
