With subtitles switched on in the Subtitle menu, subtitles will be shown if available. Each analogue channel must be set up separately.

There is no need to activate subtitles in Text for digital channels. You can set a preferred primary and secondary subtitle language. If these subtitle languages are not available for a channel, you can select another available subtitle language.

Child locks

To prevent children from watching a channel or a programme, you can lock channels or lock age-rated programmes.

Parental rating

Some digital broadcasters have rated their programmes. When the rating is equal or higher than the rating you have set for your child's age, the programme will be locked.

To watch a locked programme you must enter the child lock code. The parental age rating is set for all channels.

Set an age rating

Press h and select Setup > Channel settings and select Child lock > Parental rating.

To select an age rating, you must first enter your 4-digit child lock code. If no child lock code is set, you can set the code now.

When the code is entered, you can select the age rating. When the rating of a programme is equal or higher than the rating you have set for your child's age, the programme will be locked. The TV will ask for the code to unlock the programme. For some operators, the TV only locks programmes with a higher rating.

Lock a channel

To lock a channel, press h and select Setup > Channel settings and select Child lock > Channel lock. In the list of channel numbers, select a channel and press OK to lock a channel.

In the list, a locked channel is marked with an X. Now, you can select another channel to lock or unlock. The lock is activated as soon as you close the menu.

You cannot lock programmes from connected devices.

Change code

To change the current lock code, press h and select Setup > Channel settings and select Child lock > Change code.

Enter the current code and then enter the new code twice. The new code is set.

Forgotten your code?

If you have forgotten your code to unlock, call Consumer Care in your country. Find the telephone number on the documentation that came with the TV or go to www.philips.com/support.

Sleep timer

With the sleep timer, you can set the TV to switch to standby automatically after a specified time.

To set the sleep timer, press h > Setup > TV settings > Preferences > Sleep timer. With the slider bar you can set the time up to 180 minutes in increments of 5 minutes. If set to 0 minutes, the sleep timer is switched off.

You can always switch off your TV earlier or reset the time during the countdown.
