for further information on connections.

To make the connections in this example, you will need:

one, two-way signal splitter

two coaxial cables (75)

one cable for a video connection (standard RCA-type phono plug)

two cables for audio connections (standard RCA-type phono plugs) (only one cable is needed for connection to a nonstereo VCR).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV. You should be able to buy them at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

HELPFUL HINT

The RF output on a cable box, usually labeled “OUTPUT,” “OUT,” or “TO TV,”

will not pass a stereo sound signal to the ANTENNA IN 75jack on the TV. If, how- ever, your cable box has separate Audio/Video outputs, using A/V cables to connect to those outputs and to the A/V inputs on the TV might pass a stereo sound signal to the TV. Contact your cable TV company for more information.

To simplify making connections, the plugs on audio and video cables are often color coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise color coded to match the plugs.

The coding is as follows: —Yellow for video (composite) —Red for the right audio channel —White for the left audio channel

NOTE: If your VCR is mono (nonstereo), you will connect only one audio cable. You must ensure that the TV is set to MONO for the signal source to which you’ve connected the VCR (INPUT-AV 2, INPUT-AV 1, or the side panel inputs [AV3]). Otherwise, you will receive sound from only one of the TV’s speakers. See page 36.

These models exemplify the advancements in display technology, providing a compelling viewing experience for film and television enthusiasts.

One of the primary characteristics of these televisions is their use of advanced DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology. This technology utilizes micro mirrors to project images, which leads to brighter and sharper images with greater color accuracy compared to traditional CRT televisions.

The screens on the Philips PW9363 series range from 51 to 60 inches, providing ample display size for an immersive viewing experience. The televisions boast a resolution of 1280x720 pixels, which is sufficient for high-definition content and contributes to a clear picture quality. Additionally, they incorporate a wide viewing angle feature, allowing users to enjoy consistent picture quality from various positions in the room.

Another defining feature of the Philips PW9363 series is its Ambilight technology. This unique feature enhances the viewing experience by extending the colors of the on-screen image into the surrounding environment. It creates an atmospheric effect that can make movies and video games more engaging. The Ambilight system is adjustable, allowing users to customize the intensity of the colors based on their preferences.

Connectivity options on these models include multiple HDMI inputs, component video inputs, and a digital audio output. This variety allows users to connect various devices such as Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and sound systems, ensuring a versatile home theater setup.

In addition to stellar picture quality and connectivity, the Philips PW9363 series is engineered with user-friendly features like an intuitive remote control and built-in preset TV settings that cater to different viewing scenarios. These televisions also include an integrated tuner for digital broadcasts, providing convenience for users to access regular television programming without the need for additional devices.
