General Information

IMPORTANT!
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VOLTAGE
SELECTOR LOCATED AT THE REAR OF
THIS SYSTEM IS PRESET AT 220V FROM
THE FACTORY. FOR COUNTRIES THAT
OPERATE AT 110V-127V, PLEASE ADJUST
TO 110V-127V BEFORE YOU SWITCH ON
THE SYSTEM.

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
specialised company. Please observe the local
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old
equipment.

Acknowledgement

As an ENERGY STAR
Partner ; Philips has
determined that this product
meets the ENERGY STAR
guidelines for energy efficiency (for model

Supplied accessories

– Remote control
– Batteries (two AA size) for remote control
– AM loop antenna
– FM wire antenna
– AC power cord
– one pair of surround speakers (for model

FW-C720 only)

Safety Information

● Before operating the system, check that the

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

● Place the system on a flat, hard and stable

surface.

● Place the system in a location with adequate

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

● Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to

excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

● If the system 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 system. Should this occur, the CD
player would not operate normally. Leave the
power on for about one hour with no disc in the
system until normal playback is possible.

● The mechanical par ts of the set contain self-

lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or
lubricated.

● When the system is switched to Standby

mode, it is still consuming some power.
To disconnect the system from the
power supply completely, remove the AC
power plug from the wall socket.

circuit has been built in. Therefore, your
system may switch to Standby mode
automatically under extreme conditions. If
this happens, let the system cool down
before reusing it (not available for all versions).

Optional Connections

The optional equipment and connecting cords
are not supplied. Refer to the operating
instructions of the connected equipment for
details.

Connecting other equipment to your
system

Connect the audio left and right OUT terminals
of a TV, VCR, Laser Disc player, DVD player or
CD Recorder to the AUX/CDR IN terminals.

Notes:
– Do not connect equipment to both the LINE
OUT and AUX/CDR IN terminals at the same time.
Otherwise, noise will be generated and malfunction
might occur.
– If you are connecting equipment with a mono
output (a single audio out terminal), connect it to
the AUX/CDR IN left terminal. Alternatively, you
can use a “single to double” cinch cable (still be
mono sound).

Digital Out Connection

Connect this digital output when recording on
any audio equipment with digital input (CD
Recorder, Digital Audio Tape [DAT] deck, Digital
to Analogue Conver ter and Digital Signal
Processor, for example). Use a coaxial cable to
connect the DIGITAL OUT terminal to the
digital input terminal of the equipment.

Inserting batteries into the
Remote Control

Insert two batteries (Type R06 or AA) into the
remote control with the correct polarity as
indicated| by the + and - symbols inside the
battery compar tment.

English

Line Out Connection

Connect this output to any analogue audio
equipment for playback or recording (CD
recorder, tape recorder or amplifier for example).
Use a cinch cable to connect the LINE OUT
terminals to the analogue audio in terminals of
the equipment.

CAUTION!
– Remove batteries if they are exhausted
or will not be used for a long time.
– Do not use old and new or different
types of batteries in combination.
