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.

Recording and playback of material may require consent. See Copyright Act 1956 and The Performer’s Protection Acts 1958 to 1972.

Advarsel: Usynlig laserstråling ved åbning når sikkerhedsafbrydere er ude af funktion. Undgå utsættelse for stråling.

Bemærk: Netafbryderen er sekundært indkoblet og ofbryder ikke strømmen fra nettet. Den indbyggede netdel er derfor tilsluttet til lysnettet så længe netstikket sidder i stikkontakten.

Klass 1 laseraparat Varning! Om apparaten används på annat sätt än i denna bruksanvisning specificerats, kan användaren utsättas för osynlig laserstrålning, som överskrider gränsen för laserklass 1.

Observera! Stömbrytaren är sekundärt kopplad och bryter inte strömmen från nätet. Den inbyggda nätdelen är därför ansluten till elnätet så länge stickproppen sitter i vägguttaget.

Luokan 1 laserlaite Var oitus! Laitteen käyttäminen muulla kuin tässä käyttöohjeessa mainitulla tavalla saattaa altistaa käyttäjän turvallisuusluokan 1 ylittävälle näkymättömälle lasersäteilylle. Oikeus muutoksiin varataan. Laite ei saa olla alttiina tippu-ja roiskevedelle.

Huom. Toiminnanvalitsin on kytketty toisiopuolelle, eikä se kytke laitetta irti sähköverkosta. Sisäänrakennettu verkkoosa on kytkettynä sähköverkkoon aina silloin, kun pistoke on pistorasiassa.

Due to the inconsistency of disc formats provided by various disc manufacturers, your DVD system/ player/recorder may require a playability enhancement or upgrade. As DVD technology advances, these enhancement will become common and will be easy to complete. Go to www. p4c.philips.com for software upgarde.

En raison de la diversité des formats utilisés par les fabricants, votre système DVD peut nécessiter l'ajout de périphériques ou une mise à niveau logicielle. Au fur et à mesure des progrès de la technologie DVD, ces périphériques se font de plus en plus courants et aisés à intégrer. Pour télécharger la mise à niveau logicielle, visitez le site www.p4c.philips.com.

Debido a los diferentes formatos de discos disponibles en el mercado, es posible que deba realizar mejoras o actualizaciones en el sistema de DVD relativas a las funciones de reproducción. Conforme la tecnología DVD avanza, estas mejoras estarán al alcance de todo tipo de usuarios y se podrán llevar a cabo fácilmente. Visite la página “www.p4c. philips.com” para buscar información sobre actualizaciones de software.

Da das Disk-Format je nach Hersteller verschieden ist, ist für Ihr DVD-System möglicherweise die Erweiterung der Spielbarkeit oder eine Aktualisierung erforderlich. Da die DVD-Technologie sich ständig weiterentwickelt, werden sich diese Erweiterungen durchsetzen und einfach auszuführen sein. Gehen Sie zu für Ihre Software-Aktualisierung zu „www.p4c. philips.com“.

Doordat fabrikanten verschillende schijfindelingen aanbieden, moet uw dvd-systeem mogelijk worden geüpgradet of uitgebreid. Naarmate de dvd-technologie zich verder ontwikkelt, zullen deze uitbreidingen normaal worden en zult u ze gemakkelijk kunnen uitvoeren. Ga naar "www.p4c. philips.com" om uw software te upgraden.

A causa della differenza di formato tra i dischi forniti dai vari produttori, il sistema DVD potrebbe richiedere un potenziamento o aggiornamento della riproducibilità. Col progredire della tecnologia DVD, questi potenziamenti diverranno comuni e facili da implementare. Visitare “www.p4c. philips.com” per scaricare gli aggiornamenti del software.

Care and safety information

Avoid high temperatures, moisture, water and dust

– Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight). Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid getting dust on the lens.

Avoid condensation problem

– The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

Do not block the vents

– Do not operate the DVD system/AV Subwoofer in an enclosed cabinet and allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all around the player for adequate ventilation.

Step 1: Assemble the

speakers

➠

matching coloured

stickers

1 Look for the matching colour sticker at

the bottom of the speakers and on top of the speaker stands before attaching them.

2 If you want to disconnect speaker from

the speaker stand, use a sharp end object (e.g. pen) to slot into the small hole at the rear of the speaker stand while pulling up the speaker.

Helpful Hints: – Red colour stickers for front right and white colour stickers for front left. –Grey colour stickers for rear right and blue colour stickers for rear left.

Step 2: Placing the speakers

and AV subwoofer

DVD System

(Right)

1 Place the front left and right speakers at

equal distances from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the listening position.

2 Place the centre speaker above the TV so

that the centre channel’s sound is localised.

3 Place the rear speakers at normal

listening ear level facing each other.

4 Place the AV subwoofer on the floor near

the TV.

Helpful Hints: –To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV. – Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD system/AV subwoofer.

IMPORTANT! –You only need to make

one video connection from the following options, depending on the capabilities of your TV. – Connect the DVD system directly to the TV. – Scart (RGB) Video provides better picture quality than S-Video and Composite Video. These options must be available on your TV.

Helpful Hint: –To hear the TV channels through this DVD system, use the audio cables (white/red - not supplied) to connect AUX IN jacks to the corresponding AUDIO OUT jacks on the TV (not required if you are using Scart connection).

Using Scart jack

● Use the supplied scart video cable (black)

to connect the DVD system’s SCART jack to the corresponding Scart input jacks on the TV.

Using S-Video jack

● Use an S-video cable (not supplied) to

connect the DVD system’s S-VIDEO jack to the S-Video input jack (or labelled as Y/C or S-VHS) on the TV.

Using Composite Video jack

● Use a composite video cable (yellow -

not supplied) to connect the DVD system’s VIDEO jack to the video input jack (or labelled as A/V In, Video In, Composite or Baseband) on the TV.

Step 6: Connecting a

Progressive ScanTV

IMPORTANT! – The progressive scan video quality is only available when using Y Pb Pr connection and a progressive scan TV is required. – DO NOT connect both SCART and Y Pb Pr to a TV, it may affect the picture quality.

Using Component Video jacks (Y Pb Pr)

1 Use the component video cables (red/

blue/green - not supplied) to connect the DVD system’s Y Pb Pr jacks to the corresponding component video input jacks (or labelled as Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr or YUV) on the TV.

2 Change the component video setting

manually to YUV, see page 19.

3 Activate the progressive scan function,

see page 34.

Step 7: Connecting FM/MW

antennas

into the slot

➠

MW loop

antenna

1 Connect the supplied MW loop antenna

to the MW jack. Place the MW loop antenna on a shelf or attach it to a stand or wall.

2 Connect the supplied FM antenna to the

FM jack. Extend the FM antenna and fix its ends to the wall.

For better FM stereo reception, connect an external FM antenna (not supplied).

Helpful Hints: – Adjust the position of the antennas for optimal reception. –Position the antennas as far as possible from your TV, VCR or other radiation source to prevent unwanted interference.
