Unicable Setup

The Unicable System

You can use a Single Cable system or Unicable

system to connect the antenna dish to the TV. A

Single Cable system uses one cable to connect the

satellite dish to all satellite tuners in its system. A

Single Cable system is typically used in apartment

buildings. If you use a Unicable system, the TV will ask

you to assign a user band number and corresponding

frequency during the installation.

If you notice some missing channels after a Unicable

installation, another installation might have been

done at the same moment on the Unicable system.

Do the installation again to install the missing

channels.

User Band Number

In a Unicable system, each connected satellite tuner

must be numbered (e.g. 0, 1, 2 or 3 etc.).

You can find the available user bands and their

number on the Unicable switchbox. User band is

sometimes shortened as UB. If you select Unicable in

the settings, the TV will ask you to assign the unique

user band number for each built-in satellite tuners. A

satellite tuner cannot have the same user band

number as another satellite tuner in the Unicable

system.

User Band Frequency

Next to the unique user band number, the built-in

satellite receiver needs the frequency of the selected

user band number. These frequencies are mostly

shown next to the user band number on a Unicable

switchbox.

Satellite CAM

If you use a CAM (CI+) – a Conditional Access Module

with a smart card – to watch satellite channels, we

recommend to do the satellite installation with the

CAM inserted in the TV.

Most CAMs are used to descramble channels.

Newest generation CAMs can install all the satellite

channels by themselves on your TV. The CAM will

invite you to install its satellite(s) and channels. These

CAMs not only install and descramble the channels

but also handle regular channel updates.

To open the CAM (CI+) menu...

About Connections

Connectivity Guide

Always connect a device to the TV with the highest

quality connection available. Also, use good quality

cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and

sound.

When you connect a device, the TV recognizes its

type and gives each device a correct type name. You

can change the type name if you wish. If a correct

type name for a device is set, the TV automatically

switches to the ideal TV settings when you switch to

this device in the Sources menu.

Antenna port

If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or

Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the

antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or

Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the

antenna and the Set-top box can send possible

additional channels to the Recorder to record.

HDMI ports

HDMI Quality

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound

quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio

signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD)

TV signals.

For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed

HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer

than 5 m.

Copy protection

HDMI ports support HDCP 2.2 (High-bandwidth

ARC (Audio Return Channel).

If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS),

also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to

HDMI 1 on this TV. With the HDMI ARC connection,

you do not need to connect the extra audio cable

that sends the sound of the TV picture to the HTS.

The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.

Troubleshooting

Switch On and Remote Control

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.

Creaking sound at startup or switch off

When you are switching the TV on, off or to standby,

you hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis. 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.

TV does not respond to the remote control

The TV requires some time to start up. During this

time, the TV does not respond to the remote control

or TV controls. This is normal behaviour.

If the TV continues to be unresponsive to the remote

control, you can check if the remote control is working

by means of a mobile phone camera. Put the phone

in camera mode and point the remote control to the

camera lens. If you press any key on the remote

control and you notice the infra red LED flicker

through the camera, the remote control is working.

The TV needs to be checked.

If you do not notice the flickering, the remote control

might be broken or its batteries are low.

This method of checking the remote control is not

possible with remote controls which are wirelessly

paired with the TV.

The TV goes back to standby after showing the

Philips startup screen

When the TV is in standby, a Philips startup screen is

displayed, then the TV 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 power key on the remote

control or on the TV.

The standby light keeps on blinking

Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet.

Wait 5 minutes before you reconnect the power

cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact Philips TV

Consumer Care.

Channels

No digital channels found during the installation

See the technical specifications to make sure that

your TV supports digital channels in your country.

Make sure that all cables are properly connected and

that the correct network is selected.

Previously installed channels are not in the channel

list

Make sure that the correct channel list is selected.

PIN Code

The PIN code can be set to lock the channels or

protect from unauthorized operations, e.g. reinstalling

the TV and resetting the PIN code. If you forgot your

PIN code, you can override the current one by using

the code 8888 and entering a new one.

Picture

No picture / distorted picture

• Make sure that the antenna is properly connected to

the TV.

• Make sure that the correct device is selected as the

display source.

• Make sure that the external device or source is

properly connected.

Sound but no picture

• Change to other video sources and then change

back to current source, then do picture style restore in

Picture settings or do Factory reset in General settings

option.

Poor antenna reception

• Make sure that the antenna is properly connected to

the TV.

• Loud speakers, unearthed audio devices, neon

lights, high buildings and other large objects can

influence reception quality. If possible, try to improve

the reception quality by changing the antenna

direction or moving devices away from the TV.

• If reception on only one channel is poor, fine-tune

this channel with Manual Installation.

Poor picture from a device

• Make sure that the device is connected properly.

Make sure the device's output video setting is the

highest possible resolution if applicable.

• Restore picture style or change to other picture

styles.

Picture settings change after a while

Make sure that Retail mode is set to Off . You can

change and save settings in this mode.

A commercial banner appears

Make sure that Retail mode is set to Off . Press

Home > Settings > Device Preferences > Retail

mode and press OK

Picture does not fit the screen

• Change to a different picture format.

• Change Display mode to Automatic.

Picture position is incorrect

• Picture signals from some devices may not fit the

screen correctly. Check the signal output of the

connected device.

• Change Display mode to Automatic.

Computer picture is not stable

• Make sure that your PC uses the supported

resolution and refresh rate.

• Make sure HDMI video source is not supported HDR

content.

Sound

No sound or poor sound quality

If no audio signal is detected, the TV automatically

switches the audio output off — this does not indicate

malfunction.

• Make sure that the sound settings are correctly set.

• Make sure that all cables are properly connected.

• Make sure that the volume is not muted or set to

zero.

• Make sure that the TV audio output is connected to

the audio input on the Home Theatre System.

Sound should be heard from the HTS speakers.

• Some devices may require you to manually enable

HDMI audio output. If HDMI audio is already enabled,

but you still do not hear audio, try changing the digital

audio format of the device to PCM (Pulse Code

Modulation). Refer to the documentation

accompanying your device for instructions.

HDMI and USB

HDMI

• Note that HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content

Protection) support can delay the time taken for a TV

to display content from an HDMI device.

• If the TV does not recognise the HDMI device and

no picture is displayed, switch the source from one

device to another and back again.

• If the picture and sound of a device connected to

HDMI is distorted, connect the device to another

HDMI port on TV and power reboot your source

device.

• If there are intermittent sound disruptions, make

sure that output settings from the HDMI device are

correct.

• If you use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or HDMI-to-DVI

cable, make sure that an additional audio cable is

connected to AUDIO IN (mini-jack only), if available.

HDMI EasyLink does not work

• Make sure that your HDMI devices are HDMI-CEC

compatible. EasyLink features only work with devices

that are HDMI-CEC compatible.

No volume icon shown

• When an HDMI-CEC audio device is connected and

you use the TV Remote Control to adjust the volume

level from the device, this behaviour is normal.

Photos, videos and music from a USB device do not

show

• Make sure that the USB storage device is set to Mass

Storage Class compliant, as described in the storage

device's documentation.

• Make sure that the USB storage device is compatible

with the TV.

• Make sure that the audio and picture file formats are

supported by the TV.

Choppy playback of USB files

• The transfer performance of the USB storage device

may limit the data transfer rate to the TV which

causes poor playback.

Network

Wi-Fi network not found or distorted

• Microwave ovens, DECT phones or other Wi-Fi

802.11b/g/n devices in your proximity might disturb

the wireless network.

• Make sure that the firewalls in your network allow

access to the TV's wireless connection.

• If the wireless network does not work properly in

your home, try the wired network installation.

Internet does not work

• If the connection to the router is OK, check the

router connection to the Internet.

The PC and Internet connection are slow

• Look in your wireless router's user manual for

information on indoor range, transfer rate and other

factors of signal quality.

• Use a high-speed (broadband) Internet connection

for your router.

DHCP

• If the connection fails, you can check the DHCP

(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) setting of the

router. DHCP should be switched on.

Bluetooth®

Unable to pair

• Make sure the device is in pairing mode. Read the

user manual of the device.

• Keep the wireless speaker as close to the TV as

possible.

• Trying to pair several devices with the TV at the

same time, may not work.

Bluetooth® lost connection

• Always position the wireless speaker within a range

of 5 meters from the TV.

Bluetooth® Audio and Video synchronisation

• Before you purchase a wireless Bluetooth®

speaker, inform yourself about its quality of Audio to

Video synchronisation, commonly called 'lip sync'.

Not all Bluetooth® devices perform correctly. Ask

your dealer for advice.

Warning

Do not attempt to repair the TV yourself. This may

void your warranty.

Safety and Care

22.1

Safety

Important

Read and understand all safety instructions before

you use the TV. If damage is caused by failure to

follow instructions, the warranty does not apply.

Risk of Electric Shock or Fire

• Never expose the TV to rain or water. Never place

liquid containers, such as vases, near the TV.

If liquids are spilt on or into the TV, disconnect the TV

from the power outlet immediately.

Contact Philips TV Consumer Care to have the TV

checked before use.

• Never expose the TV, remote control or batteries to

excessive heat. Never place them near burning

candles, naked flames or other heat sources,

including direct sunlight.

• Never insert objects into the ventilation slots or other

openings on the TV.

• Never place heavy objects on the power cord.

• Avoid force coming onto power plugs. Loose power

plugs can cause arcing or fire. Ensure that no strain is

exerted on the power cord when you swivel the TV

screen.

• To disconnect the TV from the mains power, the

power plug of the TV must be disconnected. When

disconnecting the power, always pull the power plug,

never the cord. Ensure that you have full access to

the power plug, power cord and outlet socket at all

times.

Risk of Injury or Damage to the TV

• Two people are required to lift and carry a TV that

weighs more than 25 kg or 55 lbs.

• If you mount the TV on a stand, only use the

supplied stand. Secure the stand to the TV tightly.

Place the TV on a flat, level surface that can support

the weight of the TV and the stand.

• When wall mounted, ensure that the wall mount can

safely bear the weight of the TV set. TP Vision bears

no responsibility for improper wall mounting that

results in accident, injury or damage.

• Parts of this product are made of glass. Handle with

care to avoid injury or damage.

Risk of damage to the TV !

Before you connect the TV to the power outlet,

ensure that the power voltage matches the value

printed on the back of the TV. Never connect the TV

to the power outlet if the voltage is different.

Stability Hazards

A television set may fall, causing serious personal

injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children,

can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• ALWAYS ensure the television set is not overhanging

the edge of the supporting furniture.

• ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or mounting

methods recommended by the manufacturer of the

television set.

• ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the

television set.

• ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of

climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its

controls.

• ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your

television so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or

grabbed.

• NEVER place a television set in an unstable location.

• NEVER place the television set on tall furniture (for

example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring

both the furniture and the television set to a suitable

support.

• NEVER place the television set on cloth or other

materials that may be located between the television

set and supporting furniture.

• NEVER place items that might tempt children to

climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top of

the television or furniture on which the television is

placed.

If the existing television set is going to be retained

and relocated, the same considerations as above

should be applied.

Risk of Batteries

• Do not ingest the battery. Chemical burn hazard.

• The remote control may contains a coin/button cell

battery. If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it

can cause severe internal burns in just 2 hours and

can lead to death.

Risk of Overheating

Never install the TV in a confined space. Always leave

a space of at least 10 cm or 4 inches around the TV

for ventilation. Ensure curtains or other objects never

cover the ventilation slots on the TV.

Lightning Storms

Disconnect the TV from the power outlet and antenna

before lightning storms.

During lightning storms, never touch any part of the

TV, power cord or antenna cable.

Risk of Hearing Damage

Avoid using earphones or headphones at high

volumes or for prolonged periods of time.

Low Temperatures

If the TV is transported in temperatures below 5°C or

Humidity

In rare occasions, depending on temperature and

humidity, minor condensation can occur on the inside

of the TV glass front (on some models). To prevent

this, do not expose the TV to direct sunlight, heat or

extreme humidity. If condensation occurs, it will

disappear spontaneously while the TV is playing for a

few hours.

The condensation moisture will not harm the TV or

cause malfunction.
