Important notes for users in the U.K. Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse. 2

Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362

5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3 Refit the fuse cover. If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it

should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the colour mark

ings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as

follows:

• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black.

• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red.

•

Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug,

marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and

yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

Recording and playback of material may require consent. See

1958 to 1972.

REMOTE CONTROL

Open the battery compartment of the remote control and insert 2 alkaline batteries, type AA (R06, UM-3).

Remove batteries if they are flat or the remote control is not going to be used for a long time.

Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly.

The buttons on the remote control work the same way as the corresponding ones on the receiver.

Important!

You have to press a source button for longer than 1second to switch the sound source on the receiver. Pressing a source button for less than 1 second will only switch the remote control to use the commands for the selected product.

The remote control remains tuned to the selected source until another source button on the remote control is pressed. This enables you to operate additional sources (i. e. winding a tape) without changing the source on the receiver.

REMOTE CONTROL

You can identify the universal remote control by the inscription Multibrand/Universal.

The universal remote control must be programmed to use the codes for your appliances of different brands. This is done by keying in a 4-digit code or by scanning the codes until the correct one is found. We recommend to using the 4-digit code. This method is faster and more reliable. The code scanning method should only be used if you cannot find the code for one of your appliances. The code table can be found at the end of the booklet.

Important!

The buttons of the remote control must be used for programming, not the buttons of the receiver or other appliances.

Programming with the 4-digit code 1 Keep the source button for the appliance which should be

controlled and2 pressed for 3 seconds.

2 Key in the 4-digit code for the appliance (codetable at the

end of the booklet).

Notes: – If more than 4 digits are entered, the remote

control will recognize only the ones keyed in first.

– If you do not key in a code within 30 seconds the

remote control will switch off the programming function without changing the code.

– To program a new appliance, simply overwrite the

old code by entering a new one.

Scanning the codetable 1 Switch on the appliance which should be controlled.

2 Keep the source button for the appliance which should be

controlled and2 pressed for 3 seconds.

3 Press and release 2 again.

yThe remote control sends the codes for channel up or

standby (depending on the selected source) for one brand after the other.

4 As soon as the appliance reacts – switches to the next

channel or to standby – press 2 to confirm the code.

yThe identified code will be used.

• If the set does not react within 2 minutes, the code for this appliance is not stored in the remote control. The code of the remote control will remain unchanged.

Note: When taking out the batteries of the remote control for

more than 1 minute the codes must be reprogrammed.

Once you have found and tested the codes for your various appliances, you may want to write them down here.

System control bus, CINEMA LINK

Video connections

If the receiver and your Philips TV (or even better in addition a Philips VCR or DVD player) with Cinemalink are connected with the CINEMA LINK system bus control, some extra system benefits are offered: – Upon starting a source, the system will automatically

switch to that input.

– You may control the system via the TV screen. Depending

on the language of the TV, this can be done in your preferred language.

– The TV can function as the center speaker of your system,

making a separate center speaker unnecessary. (The cable A has to be purchased separately.)

– By pressing the standby button on the remote control, you

can switch the complete system to standby.

CONNECTIONS

The type plate is located on the rear of the receiver.

1 Check whether the mains voltage as shown on the type

plate corresponds to your local mains voltage. If it does not,

consult your dealer or service organization. 2 Connect the mains cable to the wall socket. To disconnect the set from the mains completely, remove the

mains plug from the wall socket.

For users in the U. K.: please follow the instructions on page 2.

Some of the speaker connections on the receiver are screw connectors and some are click-fit connectors. Use them as shown below.

1 Always connect the coloured (or marked) wire to the

coloured terminal and the black (or unmarked) wire to the

black terminal. 2 Connect:

– Left front speaker to L (red and black)

– Right front speaker to R (red and black)

– Center speaker to CENTER (blue and black)

– Left surround speaker to SURROUND L (grey and black)

– Right surround speaker to SURROUND R (grey and black)

You may use your Philips TV with CINEMALINK as the center speaker. For TVs with a scart connector an additional audio cinch-to-scart cable is needed. For TV’s with cinch connectors additional cinch cables are needed. These cables must be connected to the blue CENTER PRE-OUT connector on the back. Look into the instruction manual of your TV on how to use it as the center speaker.

AM (MW) antenna

The loop antenna supplied is for indoor use only. Position the antenna as far away as possible from the receiver, the TV, the cables, a DVD player, a VCR and other radiation sources.

1 Fit the plug of the frame antenna to AM LOOP as shown

below.

2 Turn the antenna for optimum reception.

FM antenna

The wire antenna supplied can only be used to receive nearby stations. For better reception we recommend using a cable antenna system or an outdoor antenna.

1 Fit the supplied wire antenna to FM 75 Ω as shown below. 2 Move the antenna in different positions for optimum

reception.

• If you are using a cable antenna system or an outdoor antenna, fit the antenna plug to FM 75 Ω instead of the wire antenna.

SYSTEM SETUP

General hints for positioning

Avoid positioning the speakers in a corner or on the floor as this will boost the bass tones too much. Placing the speakers behind curtains, furniture, etc. will reduce the treble response. The listener should always be able to ”see” the speakers.

Each room has different acoustic characteristics and the positioning possibilities are often limited. You can find the best position for your speakers by referring to the picture above.

As a minimum we recommend 5 speakers (2 front, a center, 2 surround) for good surround sound. It is possible to reproduce some kind of surround sound with fewer speakers. This is done by redirecting the signals which are foreseen for the missing speakers to the existing ones. See “Menus” on how to set up the receiver correctly for the number and size of the speakers used.

Positioning the front speakers

The front speakers should be placed right and left in front of the listening position like usual stereo speakers.

Positioning the center speaker

The center speaker should be placed in the center between the two front speakers, e. g. underneath or on top of the TV. The best height for the center speaker is the height of the listener’s ears (while seated).

Positioning the surround speakers

The surround speakers should face each other and be in line with, or slightly behind the listener.

Positioning the subwoofer

A subwoofer can be used to enhance the bass performance of your system dramatically. The subwoofer can be positioned anywhere in the room, because it is not possible to locate the source of deep tones. Nevertheless, you should not place the subwoofer in the middle of a room, since the bass could be severely weakened. Do not place any object on the subwoofer.

The relative volume of the speakers must be adjusted for optimal surround sound. You should be at your usual listening position when adjusting the speaker volume. See “Receiver menus” on how to set up the receiver for the used speakers. Ideally, the volume in the listening position should be the same from all speakers.

1 Press POWER / STANDBY to switch on the receiver. 2 Press TEST TONE on the remote control.

y A test tone coming from the different speakers, except

the subwoofer, is heard.

3 Press +/- REAR on the remote control to

increase/decrease the volume of the actual speaker. The best result is achieved when all speakers have equal volume in the listening position.

4 Press TEST TONE on the remote control.

y The test tone stops.

Note: If you are not completely satisfied with the volume

settings, we recommend making minor adjustments to them during surround sound playback.

If the receiver is used at very high power it can produce distortions which may seriously damage your speakers. If distortions occur, reduce the volume and the tone controls to a level where the sound is acceptable again.

To avoid overheating of the set a safety circuit has been built in. Therefore your set may disconnect under extreme conditions. If this happens, switch the set off and let it cool down before reusing it.

Connecting headphones to PHONES will switch off the speakers. The receiver switches to STEREO and surround sound will be reduced to a stereo signal which is reproducible by standard headphones.

Disconnecting the headphones switches on the speakers again. If you wish to enjoy surround sound again, switch the receiver back to surround sound.

Clean the receiver with a soft, slightly dampened, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents as they may have a corrosive effect.

Do not expose the receiver to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

The 6 CHANNEL / DVD INPUT connectors can be assigned to any of the available sources (excluding TUNER and PHONO). The assignment can be done via the * SELECT INPUT option in the menu. See below for more details.

If a source is selected with SOURCE SELECT the standard audio input is used. To change this, the source selection must be reassigned to another audio input.

Example: Reassigning CD from the analogue CD IN audio

input to the digital COAX 2 IN audio input.

1 Choose * SELECT INPUT from the menu and press

NEXT 2.

2 Turn SOURCE SELECT to select the source which should be

reassigned (e. g. CD).

yThe name of the source is displayed and the light of the

source flashes.

3 Turn X MENU NAVIGATOR to select the input connectors

which should be used (e. g. CD -> COAX2).

4 Press ENTER / OK to confirm your selection.

ySTORED is displayed briefly.

5 This source selection is now using the chosen audio input

(e. g. CD uses the COAX 2 IN input connectors, COAX 2 lights when switching to CD).

You may assign more than one source to a source selection. This can be useful when products are connected one after the other in a chain.

Example: A VCR is connected to the TV but only the TV is

connected to the receiver. Both SOURCE SELECT settings, TV as well as VCR, have to use the TV input connectors.

1 Choose * SELECT INPUT from the menu and press

NEXT 2.

2 Turn SOURCE SELECT to select the source which should be

reassigned (e. g. VCR).

yThe name of the source is displayed and the light of the

source flashes.

3 Turn X MENU NAVIGATOR to select the input connectors

which should be used (e. g. VCR -> TV IN).

4 Press ENTER / OK to confirm your selection.

ySTORED is displayed briefly.

This source selection is now using the chosen audio input (e. g. VCR uses the TV IN input connectors, VCR <TV IN> is displayed briefly when switching to VCR).

The 6 CHANNEL / DVD INPUT can be used to connect a device with a built-in multichannel decoder (e.g. Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.) and 6-channel output connector, i. e. a high end DVD player.

When using the 6 CHANNEL / DVD INPUT audio input, the receiver works as a multichannel amplifier. The source reproduces surround sound and sends it to the receiver divided into the necessary channels. Therefore the SURROUND ON/OFF, HALL and SURR. MODE button have no effect since the provided signal is already multichannel.

From a source which is connected to the 6 CHANNEL / DVD INPUT audio input cannot be recorded.

1 Turn SOURCE SELECT (or press FRONT AV – FR 995, FR 996

only) to select the source you want to record from.

yThe name of the source is displayed.

2 Prepare the desired recording appliance. It must be

connected to one of the outputs of the receiver.

3 Start recording on the recording appliance. 4 Start the playback of the source as usual.

Notes: – The audio and video signal of VCR IN is not

reproduced by VCR OUT. The same applies to the audio signal of CDR/TAPE IN to CDR/TAPE OUT.

– We recommend not to use the digital output

COAX OUT of the receiver to record from an

analogue source. Use the analogue output CDR/TAPEinstead.

– From a source which is connected to the

6 CHANNEL / DVD INPUT audio input cannot be recorded.

It is possible to connect a digital recorder to the digital output of the receiver. In this way, all signals coming from the digital inputs can be recorded directly on the connected audio recorder. The receiver will also convert all signals coming from the analogue inputs to the digital output.

The receiver can be used to record digitally a multichannel surround sound audio signal (Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG) from, for example, DVD to CD-R. The receiver will convert the digital multichannel signal into a stereo signal without loss of relevant sound information.

Notes: – When recording a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG signal,

each track must be recorded individually.

– Digital recording is not possible when the digital

source material is copy-protected.

SURROUND SOUND

Surround sound gives you a complete new listening sensation. You will have the feeling of being in the middle of the action, because sound is coming from everywhere around you. Look out for TV broadcasts, audio and video tapes and discs with the 3, 1, or marks which are encoded for multichannel surround sound. You should prefer Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG Multichannel to get the best out of your receiver.

The FR 985, FR 986, FR 995 and FR 996 are able to reproduce DTS surround sound. DTS is a premium multichannel surround sound system available on DVD discs, laserdiscs and audio discs. Consult your software dealer on the availability of DTS software in your region.

Notice that DVD discs do not always carry full multichannel surround. To be sure that a disc is multichannel encoded consult your dealer.

Most ordinary stereo tapes and discs can be replayed using surround sound settings with good results. If the reproduction is distorted in surround mode, switch to normal stereo mode.

The availabilty of the various surround sound modes described depends on the number of speakers used and the incoming sound information.

With surround sound on, you can switch through the different surround modes. Note that the possibilities are related to speaker setup defined in the receivers menu.

If a digital surround signal is detected, the receiver will scroll either DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS or MPEG.

1 Press SURROUND ON/OFF to switch on the surround sound.

yThe surround mode in use is scrolled.

2 Press SURR. MODE repeatedly to listen to the different

surround modes (if available).

yThe chosen mode and the speakers used are displayed.

If the incoming multichannel signals are reduced to fewer output signals, DOWNMIX is displayed.

3 Press VIRTUAL MODE as often as necessary to switch

About surround sound

English

SURROUND SOUND

HALL

The sound reproduction is enhanced and a slight echo is added. This gives the impression of being in a large room. Can only be used in stereo mode.

SURROUND

The surround mode enables normal surround sound reproduction with 4 or 5 speakers. Depending on the source material, Dolby Surround Pro Logic, Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG is reproduced.

PRO LOGIC, DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS, MPEG In addition to SURROUND, the surround mode used – depending on the source material – will be displayed. In case of digital surround, the sound format AC-3 (for Dolby Digital), DTS or MPEG (for MPEG 2 Multichannel) will be displayed, followed by the sound channels, available on the source (e. g. DVD).

Example: AC-3 3/2.1 Dolby Digital, 3 front channels,

2 surround channels and a subwoofer channel.

MPEG 2/0.0

MPEG Multichannel, stereo sound only.

AC-3 3/1.0 Dolby Digital, 3 front channels,

1 (mono) surround channel without subwoofer signal.

DTS 3/2.1 DTS, 3 front channels, 2 surround

channels and a subwoofer channel.

FRONT-3 STEREO

The surround sound is muted. 3 Stereo lets you listen to surround sound without using the surround speakers.

STEREO

All sound is reproduced and played through the front left and right speakers. This enables standard stereo reproduction.

Virtual Surround

Your receiver is able to reproduce one or more forms of virtual surround sound. Virtual surround gives a more real life sound impression by creating phantom speakers in addition to or instead of real speakers. The position of the listener influences the surround effect. The area where the effect is best is shown in grey.

The level of virtual surround sound effect can be adjusted in the setup menu. The following surround sound modes are available:

3D SURROUND

No rear speakers are needed. The sound of the rear channel is simulated by the front speakers. Surround sound is simulated through the front left, right and center speakers.

MULTI FRONT

Phantom speakers are created next to the left and right front speaker.

MULTI REAR

Phantom speakers are created next to the left and right rear speaker.

NATURAL SURROUND

Phantom speakers are created next to the left and right front and rear speakers.

Note: The availability of MULTI FRONT and

MULTI REAR depends on the sound channels on the

source material.

NIGHT MODE (only on the remote control)

The loud parts of the sound are lowered and the soft passages are raised. You can enjoy surround sound without disturbing sleeping children or neighbours. Night mode only works with Dolby Digital and MPEG, and only if supported by the source material.

Ouvrez le compartiment piles de la télécommande et insérez 2 piles alcaline, type AA (R06, UM-3).

Retirez les piles si elles sont à plat ou si la télécommande ne sera pas utilisée pendant une période prolongée.

Les piles contiennent des substances chimiques, donc elles devront être mises proprement au rebut.

Les touches de la télécommande fonctionnent de la même manière que les touches correspondantes sur le récepteur.

Important!

Vous devez appuyer pendant plus d’1 seconde sur un bouton de sélection de source pour faire passer le récepteur sur cette source sonore. En appuyant sur le bouton de sélection de source pendant moins d’1 seconde, la télécommande passe simplement au mode de contrôle du produit choisi.

La télécommande reste ne service sur la source sélectionnée jusqu‘à ce qu‘un autre bouton de source soit sollicité au niveau de la télécommande. Ceci permet de solliciter des sources complémentaires par exemple l‘enroulement d‘une cassette sans modifier la source au niveau de l‘équipement.

TELECOMMANDE

Il vous est possible d‘identifier la télécommande universelle par l‘inscription Multibrand/Universal.

La télécommande universelle doit être programmée à l‘usage des codes pour les utilisations des différentes marques. Pour ce faire, introduisez un code à 4 chiffres ou balayez les codes jusqu‘à ce que le code correct soit trouvé. Nous vous recommandons d‘utiliser le code à 4 chiffres. Cette méthode est plus rapide et bien plus fiable. La méthode de balayage des codes ne doit en fait être utilisée que dans le cas où vous ne trouviez pas le code pour une de vos applications. A la fin de ce manuel, vous trouverez la table des codes.

Important!

Les boutons de la télécommande doivent être utilisés pour la programmation, pas les boutons du récepteur ou des autres applications.

Programmation avec le code à 4 chiffres 1 Maintenez enfoncés le bouton de source de l‘application que

vous désirez commander et 2 pendant plus de 3 secondes.

2 Introduisez le code à 4 chiffres pour l‘application (voir table

des codes à la fin du manuel).

Remarques :– Si vous introduisez plus de 4 chiffres, la

télécommande ne reconnaîtra que les quatre premiers.

– Si vous n‘introduisez pas un code pendant

30 secondes, la télécommande mettra automatiquement la fonction de programmation hors service sans que le code ne soit modifié.

– Pour programmer une nouvelle application,

effacez simplement l’ancien code en en introduisant un nouveau.

Balayage de la table des codes 1 Mettez en service l‘application à commander.

2 Maintenez enfoncés le bouton de source de l‘ application

que vous désirez commander et 2 pendant plus de 3 secondes.

3 Appuyez sur et relâchez à nouveau 2.

yLa télécommande envoie les codes pour le canal suivant

ou le mode de veille (selon la source sélectionnée) pour une marque après l‘autre.

4 Dès que l‘application réagit, – passe automatiquement au

canal suivant ou en mode de veille – relâchez 2 pour confirmer le code.

yLe code identifié sera utilisé.

• Si l‘équipement ne réagit pas pendant 2 minutes, le code pour cette application n‘est pas enregistré dans la télécommande. Le code de la télécommande restera donc inchangé.

Remarque : Si vous enlevez les piles de la télécommande

pendant plus de 1 minute, les codes devront être reprogrammés.

Une fois que les codes ont été trouvés et testés pour les diverses applications, il est certainement bon d‘en prendre note ci-dessous.
