Introduction

Philips offers software upgrade capability for your TV using USB portable memory.  After you
have completed the software upgrade, your TV may perform better.  What improvements are
made depends on the software you are using as well as the software your TV  contained
before the upgrade.  You can execute the software upgrade procedure yourself.  Be aware
that the content of this document is addressing technical and software skilled users.

Preparing a portable memory for software upgrade.

For the procedure you will require:

>  A personal computer with web browsing capability
>  An archive utility that supports the ZIP-format (e.g. WinZip for windows or Stufflt for 

Mac OS).

>  A preferably empty USB memory stick.

Note: Only FAT/DOS formatted portable memory is supported.

Firmware upgrade procedure:

1.  Download the *.Zip file from the customer website.

2.  Extract the *.ecc file for your TV and load it to the root directory of a USB 

removable memory drive.   If you have Windows XP or greater, click on the *.ZIP file.  

Then copy the *.ecc file to the USB drive.  Example of root directory would be “E:\”.

3.  Unplug the TV from the AC outlet.
