OLED Screen Care
OLED Display is state of the art technology and
combined with our Picture Quality Engine it has won
an outstanding number of awards. To ensure that
your TV always offers the best possible performance,
it will sometimes perform a display clean-up process
while in standby.
If you never put your TV in standby, you will regularly
be notified by on screen messages that the display
needs to execute this clean-up process. Please
always follow those instructions. Repeatedly
postponing this process may result in image retention,
which may void your warranty.
Your TV should be left in standby in order to execute
the cleaning process in the background.
We also recommend that you avoid continuously
displaying static images or static parts in moving
images (like news ticker bar, soccer scores, game
HUDs...).
TV Display refreshing
To protect the screen, OLED TV need refreshing
process over time.
There are 2 types of refreshing process:
• Normal refreshing: This will take place automatically
and it takes a few minutes with TV in standby mode.
• Deep refreshing: This will take a few minutes and
need to be triggered by consumer.
To allow OLED TV to perform refreshing properly,
please adhere to the following:
• For normal refreshing process to take place
automatically, always use remote control to switch off
TV and keep the TV power plugged.
• When normal refreshing message is shown on TV
screen, follow the onscreen recommended
instructions.
• For deep refreshing process, it can be activated
manually via Settings > Display & Sound >
Screen > OLED SCREEN SETTINGS > Clear residual
image. A reminder message can also be shown on TV
to request user to perform deep refreshing, please
follow instructions and keep TV power plugged to
allow the whole process complete. It will take a few
minutes. The deep refreshing process shall only be
done when residual image is seen on screen even
after 8 hours standby. Manually performing Clear
residual image too often may reduce OLED display
life time. However, it is important to allow the refresh
cycles, when requested by the TV.
• Do not touch or apply pressure on TV screen during
the refreshing process.
• Always use remote control to switch off TV and keep
the TV power plugged on when refreshing is triggered.
* Note: In order to enjoy the best picture quality this
process is essential. If the unit demonstrably did not
have the chance to complete a refreshing process on
a regular basis, we cannot accept any returns, repairs,
exchanges or warranty claims on behalf of image
residual phenomenon within and/or out of the
warranty period. This is also the case when the TV is
used predominantly for gaming with static content on
the screen, the TV is only used for watching news
channels (with static news ticker bars) or other similar
use cases that implication-wise bear an increased risk
for sustaining burn-in effects. This is not in scope of
the warranty.
Special Care for OLED TV
Organic LED (OLED) may experience on-screen
image retention (due to the characteristics of the
material), when an image is continuously displayed
for a long period of time or the same image is
repeatedly displayed. So it is strongly recommended
to follow the instructions to take care of OLED TV:
• Do not display any still image continuously or
display the same image for more than 10 minutes.
• Recommend to use ECO, HDR Home Cinema or
Dolby Vision Dark as picture style in normal home
viewing condition.
• Recommend to use OLED Contrast setting 50 or
below in picture settings when playing Game or
watching TV programs with logos or clocks on any
parts of the screen.
• Switch off On Screen Display (e.g. the home menus)
of TV application program when not used.
• Switch off On Screen Display from connected
external video devices (e.g. DVD player). For details,
refer to the instruction manuals for the connected
devices.
• Avoid displaying video with bright colors (including
white), text, clocks or logos on any parts of the screen
for a long time.
• Use Wide screen or Fill screen as picture format
option (see TV picture settings).
• Always watch video in full screen instead of a small
window on TV screen. (e.g. video in internet browser
page)
• Do not attach any sticker or label on the OLED panel
to reduce the chance of image residual phenomenon.
• Organic LED (OLED) displays are extremely sensitive
to hostile climate and external factors, like placing
these straight under the sunlight and/or ultraviolet
illumination as well as improper ambient temperature,
resulting in a decrease of luminosity, brightness and
lifetime of the OLED displays, pixel reduction and
irreparable harm and/or failure of the display. Please
note that the warranty does not apply to problems
that result, directly or indirectly, from the usage which
is not in conformity with these product instructions.
4
Displaying a still image for a prolonged period of time
may cause an image sticking. This phenomenon is
normal character for OLED panel and does not
represent a defect of the TV. Avoid displaying a fixed
image on the TV screen for an extended length of
time.
Screen saver
To reduce the chances of residual images on the TV
screen, the screen saver (moving PHILIPS logo) will
be triggered in such circumstances.
- when static setting menu elements are shown on
screen for more than 2 minutes.
- when static setting menu elements of Apps are
shown on screen for more than 2 minutes.
- when Teletext is being displayed for more than 2
minutes.
The screen saver may not be triggered in such
circumstances.
- pausing playback on an external source (e.g. HDMI),
as the TV is not displaying static setting menu
elements.
Once the screen saver is active, it can be closed by
pressing any remote control button. Other actions like
inserting a USB stick or casting content will execute in
the background, but these activities will not interrupt
the screen saver.
Philips TV is equipped with the following to take care
of OLED screen:
Automatic refreshing process
Perform screen refreshing process when necessary.
Automatic screen brightness control
Gradually reduce the screen brightness when still
image is displayed for a long time.
Screen Saver
Display screen saver when still image is displayed on
screen over a longer period of time.

Satellite Installation Settings
The satellite installation settings are preset according
to your country. These settings determine how the TV
searches and installs satellites and its channels. You
can always change these settings.
To change the satellite installation settings:
1 - Start the satellite installation.
2 - On the screen where you can start searching for
satellites, select Configure and press OK.

Homing Transponder and LNB
In some countries, you can adjust the expert settings
for homing transponder and each LNB. Only use or
change these settings when a normal installation fails.
If you have non-standard satellite equipment, you
can use these settings to overrule the standard
settings. Some providers might give you some
transponder or LNB values which you can enter here.
Satellite CAMs
If you use a CAM – 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.
14
Channel Packages
Satellite operators can offer channel packages that
bundle free channels (free-to-air) and offer a sorting
that suits a country. Some satellites offer subscription
packages - a collection of channels you pay for.
If you choose a subscription package, the TV might
ask you to select a Quick or Full installation.
Select Quick to install the channels of the package
only or select Full to install the package and all
other available channels too. We recommend a Quick
installation for subscription packages. If you have
additional satellites that are not part of your
subscription package, we recommend a Full
installation. All installed channels are put in the
channels list All.
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. You can install up to
4 satellites with Unicable on this TV.
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.
* Note: supports Unicable 1 (EN50494) and Unicable 2
(EN50607/JESS).
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. There are Unicable
switchboxes that offer 4 or 8 user bands. 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.

transponder. If the transponder was installed before,
all its channels - the former and the new ones - are
moved to the end of the channel list All.
You cannot use Manual installation if you need to
change the number of satellites. If this is needed, you
have to do a complete installation with Install
Satellites.

Homing Transponder and LNB
In some countries, you can adjust the expert settings
for homing transponder and each LNB. Only use or
change these settings when a normal installation fails.
If you have non-standard satellite equipment, you
can use these settings to overrule the standard
settings. Some providers might give you some
transponder or LNB values which you can enter here.
LNB Power
By default, LNB Power is set to Automatic.
22 kHz Tone
By default, the Tone is set to Automatic.
Low LO Frequency / High LO Frequency
The local oscillator frequencies are set to standard
values. Adjust the values only in case of exceptional
equipment that needs different values.
Problems
The TV cannot find the satellites I want or the TV
installs the same satellite twice
• Make sure that the correct number of satellites is set
in Settings at the start of the installation. You can set
the TV to search for One, Two or 3/4 satellites.
A dual head LNB cannot find a second satellite
• If the TV finds one satellite but cannot find a second
one, turn the dish a few degrees. Align the dish to get
the strongest signal on the first satellite. Check the
signal strength indicator of the first satellite on screen.
With the first satellite set at the strongest signal, select
Search again to find the second satellite.
• Make sure the settings are set to Two Satellites.
Changing the installation settings did not solve my
problem
• All settings, satellites and channels are only stored
at the end of the installation when you finish.
All satellite channels are gone
• If you use a Unicable system, make sure you
assigned two unique user band numbers for both
built-in tuners in the Unicable settings. It might be
that another satellite receiver in your Unicable system
is using the same user band number.
Some satellite channels seem to have disappeared
from the channel list
• If some channels seem to be gone or displaced, the
broadcaster might have changed the transponder
location of these channels. To restore the channel
positions in the channel list, you can try an update of
the channel package.
I cannot remove a satellite
• Subscription packages do not allow removing a
satellite. To remove the satellite, you have to do a
complete installation again and select another
package.
Sometimes the reception is poor
• Check if the satellite dish is solidly mounted. Strong
winds can move the dish.
• Snow and rain can degrade the reception.

Connect Devices
9.1
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 an Ultra High
Speed certified HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI
cable longer than 5 m.
If a device connected with HDMI is not working
correctly, check if a different HDMI Ultra HD setting
can solve this problem. In Help, press the colour
key Keywords and look up HDMI Ultra HD.
Copy protection
HDMI ports support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal
that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Blu-
ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights
Management).
HDMI ARC and eARC
Only HDMI 2 on the TV supports HDMI ARC (Audio
Return Channel) and HDMI eARC.
If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS),
soundbar or AV receiver, also has the HDMI ARC
connection, connect it to HDMI 2 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.
You can use any HDMI connection on this TV to
connect the HTS but ARC is only available for 1
device/connection at a time.
HDMI eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) is an
advancement over the previous ARC. It covers all ARC
features but with higher bandwidth and speed. eARC
supports high quality audio transmission up to192kHz,
24-bit, uncompressed 5.1 and 7.1, and 32-channel
uncompressed audio.
Note: HDMI eARC is only available on HDMI 2.
Use Ultra High-speed HDMI cable for eARC. Only

Home Theatre System - HTS
Connect with HDMI ARC/eARC
Use an HDMI cable to connect a Home Theatre
System (HTS) to the TV. You can connect a Philips
Soundbar or an HTS with a built-in disc player.
HDMI ARC
Only HDMI 2 on the TV can offer the Audio Return
Channel (ARC) signal. Once you have connected the
Home Theatre System, the TV can only send the ARC
signal to this HDMI connection. With HDMI ARC, you
do not need to connect the extra audio cable. The
HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.
HDMI eARC
HDMI eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) is an
advancement over the previous ARC. It supports the
latest high-bitrate audio formats up to192kHz, 24-bit,
and uncompressed 5.1 and 7.1, and 32-channel
uncompressed audio. HDMI eARC is only available on
HDMI 2.
Audio to video synchronisation (sync)

can set a delay on most Home Theatre Systems with
a disc player to match the sound with the video.
Problems with HTS sound
Sound with loud noise
If you watch a video from a plugged in USB flash drive
or connected computer, the sound from your Home

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 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.

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.

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 the picture and sound of a device connected with
HDMI is distorted, check if a different HDMI Ultra
HD setting can solve this problem. In Help, press the
colour key Keywords and look up HDMI Ultra
HD.
• 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.
HDMI eARC is not working well
• Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to HDMI 2.

used for eARC connection.
• Only one eARC device is available at a time.
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/ac 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.
Poor quality when watching streaming video
• The image/sound quality of stream video is
depending on the original video content provided by
streaming video apps.
• To ensure the best experience of watching
streaming videos, a fast and stable network
connection is essential. The recommended network
connection speed for the streaming videos are as
follows:
- Standard image quality (SD): 5 Mbps
- High image quality (HD): 10 Mbps
- 4K/Ultra HD (UHD): 25 Mbps

Safety and Care
25.1
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 contain 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.
• Keep new and used batteries away from children.
• If the battery compartment does not close securely,
stop using the product and keep it away from
children.
• If you think batteries might have been swallowed or
placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate
medical attention.
• Risk of fire or explosion if the battery is replaced by
an incorrect type.
• Replacement of a battery with an incorrect type that
can defeat a safeguard (for example, in the case of
77
some lithium battery types).
• Disposal of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or
mechanically crushing or cutting of a battery, that can
result in an explosion.
• Leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature
surrounding environment that can result in an
explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
• A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure
that may result in an explosion or the leakage of
flammable liquid or gas.
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
41°F, unpack the TV and wait until the TV temperature
reaches room temperature before connecting the TV
to the power outlet.
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.
25.2
Screen Care
• Never touch, push, rub or strike the screen with any
object.
• Unplug the TV before cleaning.
• Clean the TV and frame with a soft damp cloth and
wipe gently. Avoid touching the Ambilight* LEDs on
the backside of the TV. Never use substances such as
alcohol, chemicals or household cleaners on the TV.
• To avoid deformations and colour fading, wipe off
water drops as quickly as possible.
• Avoid stationary images as much as possible.
Stationary images are images that remain onscreen
for extended periods of time. Stationary images
include onscreen menus, black bars, time displays,
etc. If you must use stationary images, reduce screen
contrast and brightness to avoid screen damage.
* Ambilight LED is only for models which support
Ambilight function.

nor shall be regarded as a defect of the TV. Hence,
we regret that claims of this nature for warranty, free
of charge service, replacement or refund cannot be
accepted within and/or out of the warranty period.
