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 markings 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.

General Information

¶ The type plate (which contains the serial

number) is located at the rear of the player.

¶ Recording is permissible if copyright or

other rights of third parties are not infringed.

¶ This product complies with the radio

interference requirements of the European Community.

Environmental Information

All unnecessary packaging has been omitted. We have tried to make the packaging easy to separate into three materials: cardboard (box), polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).

Your system consists of materials which can be recycled and reused if disassembled by a specialized company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.

Energy Star

As an ENERGY STARR Partner ; Philips has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STARR guidelines for energy efficiency.

Supplied Accessories

– Remote control – AM loop antenna – FM wire antenna – AC power cord

Safety Information

¶ Before operating the player, check that the

operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your player is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer. The typeplate is located at the rear of your player.

¶ When the player is switched on, do not move it

around.

¶ Place the player on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet). ¶ Place the player in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in your player. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit and 5 cm (2 inches) from the each side.

¶ Do not expose the player to excessive moisture,

rain, sand or heat sources.

¶ Under no circumstances should you repair the

player yourself, as this will invalidate the warranty!

¶ If the player is brought directly from a cold to a

warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens of the disc unit inside the player. Should this occur, the CD player will not operate normally. Leave the power on for about one hour with no disc in the player until normal playback is possible.

¶ Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected

problems. See whether these problems disappear if you unplug the AC power cord and plug it in again after a few seconds.

¶ To disconnect the player from the power

supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.
