FEATURES

Audio/Video Jack Panel allows direct connections with VCRs, DVDs, or other devices, providing quality TV picture and sound playback.

Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) Control keeps the TV sound at an even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, comfortable sound.

AutoLock™ allows you to block the viewing of certain channels or pro- grams with certain ratings if you do not want your children to view inap- propriate materials.

Auto Programming scans (when activated) for all available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast sta- tions in the TV’s memory.

AutoPicture™ allows you to change the picture settings (color, tint, con- trast, etc.) for various types of programming, such as sports, movies, multi- media (games), or weak signals with the push of one button.

AutoSound™ allows you to select from three factory-set controls and a personal control that you set according to your own preferences through the onscreen Sound menu. The three factory-set controls (Voice, Music, and Theatre) enable you to tailor the TV sound so as to enhance the partic- ular programming you are watching.

Channel Edit allows you to add or delete channels from the list stored in the TV’s memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to limit or expand the num- ber of channels that are available to you when you press the Channel (+) or

(–) buttons on your remote control.

Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dialogue or voice conversations as onscreen text.

Gemstar Guide Plus+® gives the user a listing of current programming right on the TV screen. Can be used to set recordings of certain programs, get up to date news bulletins, and much more.

ImageMax™ helps you sharpen the picture quality by making dark por- tions of the picture darker and light portions brighter.

Instructions for use

Infrared Remote (IR) Blaster works with the M-Link feature to enable your TV to “learn” the remote-control commands of new Philips devices or multibrand devices that you have connected to your TV. After the com- mands are learned, you can use your TV remote control to operate and control all of the devices.

M-Link™allows you to convert your TV into a home-cinema control center composed of up to six devices (including an audio amplifier). You activate the devices by pressing macro buttons and control the devices by pressing “hot” buttons on your remote control. Choose from cable box, digital set top box, DVD (digital video disc), laser disc (LD), satellite digi- tal TV, VCD (video compact disc), and VCR (video cassette recorder) devices. (IR Blaster must be plugged in before turning the TV ON.)

Onscreen Menu shows helpful messages and instructions for setting TV feature controls (can be viewed in English, French, or Spanish).

Sleep Timer automatically turns the TV OFF after a set amount of time that you choose.

Standard Broadcast (VHF/UHF) or Cable TV (CATV) channel capabil- ity allows for viewing by antenna or cable.

Stereo capability, including a built-in audio amplifier and twin-speaker system, allows for the reception of TV programs broadcast in stereo sound.

Surf Button allows you to easily switch among only the channels that are of interest to you (the ones that you have programmed into the TV’s Surf control through the onscreen menu).

Timer allows you to set your TV to turn itself ON and OFF once or daily like an alarm clock.
