What you need
With
Amhue
, you can set up your
Philips Hue
lamps to
follow the
Ambilight
colours of the TV. The Philips Hue lamps
will expand the Ambilight effect across the room. If you don’t
have any Philips Hue lamps yet, buy the
Philips Hue Starter Kit
(includes a hue bridge and 3 hue bulbs) and install the bulbs and
bridge. You can buy extra Philips Hue bulbs separately.
To set up Amhue on your TV you need…
• a Philips Hue bridge
• a few Philips Hue bulbs

You can do the complete Amhue setup on TV and don’t
need the Amhue App.
If you do download the free
Amhue App
on your
smartphone or tablet later, you can use this App to adjust some
Amhue settings.
