Of course, you can listen to your favorite Audio Compact Discs on this DVD Changer as well. Determine the order in which you want to hear the songs, or play the Disc repeatedly - all while seeing the status of the CD on your television. We hope you enjoy this DVD Changer and learn to use all of its features. To get the most out of the DVD Changer, read this owner’s manual carefully.

8 Hookups
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to connect, there are various ways you could connect the DVD Changer. Use only one of the connections described on pages 9-12.
Before you begin...
Refer to the manuals of your TV, Stereo, Receiver or other devices as necessary. Note
the style of jacks and connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio and VIdeo In channels on your other equipment so you can see and hear the DVD Changer on the TV, Stereo, etc.
Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to the power
outlets only after you have finished hooking up everything. Never make or change con­nections with equipment connected to the power outlet.
Depending on your connection, you may need to purchase additional cables.
Determining the best possible connection...
Your hookup will be determined primarily by feature availability of your existing equipment. However, the following guidelines describe which options have the best picture and sound quality.
 Use the Component Video jacks for the best picture quality.  Use the S-Video jack for excellent picture quality.  Use the yellow Video jack for good picture quality.  If your TV only has an RF-style jack, usually labeled Antenna In or 75 ohm, you
will need an adapter in order to connect the DVD Changer to the TV. Ask your electronics retailer for details. The DVD picture still will exceed the quality of videotapes and other analog recordings.
 Digital audio connections provide the clearest sound. Connect one of the DVD
Changers DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) to your Receiver for the best sound quality.
 If digital connections are not possible, connect the DVD Changer’s red and white
AUDIO OUT jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Receiver or TV. Using the red and white cables provides a standard analog or two-channel connection. Sound is distributed through two channels, or the Left and Right channels.
Remember...
Connect the DVD Changer directly to the TV. For example, do not connect the
DVD Changer to a VCR, then connect the VCR to a TV. This type of connection may distort the picture and sound. Also, your VCR might have the copy protection system, which could further distort the DVD image.
Set the TV to the correct Video In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or
AUXILIARYIN, AUDIO/VIDEO or A/V IN, EXT1 or EXT2, etc. These channels often are located near channel 00. See your TV owners manual for details.
Set the audio equipment (Amplifier, Receiver, etc.) to the correct channel or
source mode.
Do not connect the DVD Changers AUDIO OUT jack to the PHONO IN jack of your
audio system.
You only need one audio connection and one video connection.
If you connect the DVD Changer to a Receiver that is Dolby Digital and DTS compati-
ble, set Dolby Digital or DTS to On at the DVD Changer. Details are on pages 40-41.
If your Receiver is not Dolby Digital or DTS compatible, set Dolby Digital or DTS to
Off at the DVD Changer. Playing a DVD when the settings are wrong will distort the sound or damage the speakers.
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 9-12. Follow the specific steps for the hookup you chose.

AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the DVD Changer that send audio to another system (TV, Audio Receiver, etc.).
CD
: Compact Disc (audio)
Coaxial jack:
Sends digital audio to an Audio Receiver, allowing you to adjust the volume at the Receiver. The Receiver must have a coaxial in jack. This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard in movie theaters.
Component Video Out Jacks
: Jacks on the back of the DVD Changer that send
high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.
Dolby Digital:
A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters. Your Audio Receiver or stereo must be Dolby Digital compati­ble.
DTS:
Digital Theater Systems. This is a surround sound system, but it is different
from Dolby Digital. The formats were developed by different companies.
DVD
: Digital Versatile Disc.
Letterbox:
A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video in full-width, with black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This format is used often when you see a movie in a theater. If the Disc does not include a letterbox format , selecting Letterbox may have no effect. (For example, some DVD discs are two­sided, with one side playing in Letterbox and the other side playing in a normal for­mat.)
Optical Jack:
Converts electrical signals into optical signals before sending the audio to the amplifier. Optical audio is not prone to external electrical influences and has less noise, which reduces adverse effects on external equipment. Be sure to keep the protective cap on the jack when the jack is not in use. This keeps dust out of the jack.
Pan & Scan:
A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video with full-height picture, with one or both sides of the picture trimmed. There are no black bars at the top and bottom of the picture.
Remote Control:
The small electronic unit that came with your DVD Changer;
allows you to operate your DVD Changer from a distance.
S-Video:
Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color. If you connect an optional S-Video cable, you will not need to use the supplied yellow video cable. You can use S-Video only if your TV has an S­Video In jack.
VIDEO OUT Jack:
Jack on the back of the DVD Changer that sends video to a
TV.
Wide:
A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the video appropriately when you
connect the DVD Changer to a widescreen TV.

DVD-Video Player/5–Disc Changer
90 days Free Exchange / 91 days–One Year Reduced-Cost Exchange
WHO IS COVERED?
You must have proof of the date of purchase to exchange your product. A sales receipt or other docu­ment showing the date that you purchased the product is considered such proof.
WHAT IS COVERED?
Warranty coverage begins the day you buy your prod­uct. For 90 days thereafter, you may exchange the defec­tive product for a new or renewed product at the store from which it was purchased or through Philips. Either exchange is made at no cost to you. From 91 days to one year from the date of purchase, you will pay a preset exchange fee to obtain a new or renewed product. Follow the exchange procedures on the next page. This exchange opportunity ends one year after the date of purchase. The replacement product is covered only for the warranty period of the original product. When the warranty on the original product expires, the warranty on all replaced products also expires.
WHAT IS EXCLUDED?
Your warranty does not cover:
shipping charges to return defective product.
labor charges for installation or setup of the prod-
uct, adjustment of customer controls on the prod­uct, and installation or repair of antenna systems outside of the product.
product repair and/or part replacement because of improper installation, abuse, neglect, misuse, acci­dent, unauthorized repair or other cause not within the control of Philips Consumer Electronics.
a product that requires modification or adaptation to enable it to operate in any country other than the country for which it was designed, manufac­tured, approved and/or authorized, or repair of products damaged by these modifications.
incidental or consequential damages resulting from the product. (Some states do not allow the exclu­sion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This includes, but is not limited to, prerecorded material, whether copyrighted or not copyrighted.)
a product that is used for commercial or institution­al purposes (including but not limited to rental pur­poses).
WHERE IS EXCHANGE AVAILABLE?
Warranty exchange is available in all countries where the product is officially distributed by Philips Consumer Electronics. In countries where Philips Consumer Electronics does not distribute the product, the local Philips service organization will attempt to exchange the product, although there may be a delay if the appropri­ate product is not readily available.
MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...
Please keep your sales receipt or other document
showing proof of date of purchase. Attach it to the owners manual and keep both nearby. Also keep the original box and packing material in case you need to return your product.
BEFORE EXCHANGING THE PRODUCT...
Please check your owners manual before exchanging the product. Adjustments of the controls discussed there may save you time and money.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND REMEDY...
Philips is not liable under any circumstances for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential dam­ages, howsoever incurred, even if notified of the possi­bility of such damages.
