How do I program my Philips TV channels?

Published on 2019-09-10

Note: You only need to program channels if you are using a coaxial connection without a cable or satellite box.

Follow the instructions below to program the TV:

  1. Press the 'MENU' button on the remote control to access the main menu.
  2. Press the cursor down to select INSTALL and press the cursor right to access the installation menu.
  3. If the Parental lock is activated, the screen will prompt you to enter your access code.
  4. Press the cursor down to select AUTO STORE and press the 'OK' button to start the installation.
  5. Once the installation is completed, the TV will automatically exit the menu.

If you have forgotten your access code or need to set it for the first time, proceed as follows:

  1. Press the 'MENU' button on the remote control to access the main menu.
  2. Press the cursor down to select FEATURES and press the cursor right.
  3. Press the cursor down to select PARENTAL LOCK and press the cursor right.
  4. When the prompt ACCESS CODE appears on the screen, enter the universal code '0711' two times.
  5. Ignore the message INCORRECT on the screen after the first attempt.
  6. Then enter an easily remembered new four-digit code and enter the new code a second time for confirmation.
  7. Press the 'MENU' button to exit the menu.
