Congratulations on your purchase and welcome
to Philips!
To fully benefit from the support that Philips
offers, register your product at www.philips.com/
welcome.
Features
Your DVD Micro Theatre with 2.0 channel full
digital amplifier creates the same dynamic sound
qualities that you find in full-fledged cinemas and
incorporates some of the best features in home
theater technology.
Other features include:
Built-in Dolby Digital decoder, supporting DSC
sound setting.
Additional Component Connections
Lets you connect other audio and audio/visual
components to the DVD micro theatre.
Night mode
Lets you compress the dynamic range, reducing
the difference in loudness between different
sounds in Dolby Digital mode.
Parental Control (Rating Level)
Lets you set a ratings level so that your children
cannot watch a DVD that has a rating higher
than you set.
Sleep/Wake-up Timer
Enables the system to switch on/off automatically
at a preset time.
Progressive Scan
Provides high quality flicker-free images for film
based sources. When a picture refreshes, its
ver tical resolution can double to 525 lines.
Hi-Fi Tube Sound from DVD Micro
Theatre
Why do I need it?
You deserve an immersive sound experience like
an audiophile.
The built-in vacuum tube preamplifier enables
you to experience the highest quality sound
normally you can only find in premium Hi-Fi
audio equipment.
Music is dynamic and is played to be heard by
human ears. The analogue nature of tube gives a
more pleasing sound to the nonlinear human
ear-brain hearing system. Tube sound has less
distortion than solid-state sound and audiophiles
always prefer tubes for their clean, warm and far
more detailed and life-like sound.
What is it?
Vacuum tube is not something new, but always a
premium.
Before the introduction of transistors, most
electronic amplifier used vacuum tubes. By 60s',
solid-state amplification became more common,
but tube amplifier has retained a loyal following
among audiophiles with modern units from
companies commanding very high price.
How does it work?
Amplifiers are available based on solid-state
(semiconductor) technology or vacuum-tube
(valve) technology. Many audiophile systems
separate the functions of the preamplifier-which
selects audio signals and has a volume controland the power amplifier, which takes a line-level
audio signal and drives the loudspeakers.
Audiophiles find the tube preamplifier product a
more faithful and detailed reproduction in
comparison to the solid-state preamplifier.
Note:
–To fully enjoy the progressive scan feature, you
need a progressive scan TV.

– FM wire antenna
– Composite video cable (yellow)
–2 front speakers including 2 speaker
cables
– This instruction booklet and a Quick Start
Guide
If any item is damaged or missing, contact
your retailer or Philips.
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.
Installation
● Place the player on a flat, hard, and stable surface.
● In a cabinet, allow about 10cm (4 inches) of free
space all around the player for adequate
ventilation.
● Do not expose your player to extreme
temperatures or humidity.
● The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping
or splashing.
● No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus.
● No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
shall be placed on the apparatus.
● Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the
AC power plug can be reached easily.
● The ventilation should not be impeded by
covering the ventilation openings with items,
such as newpapers, table-cloths, curtains, et.
Maintenance
● When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a
cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out,
in a straight line.
● Do not expose the player, 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 dust on the
lens.
● Do not use solvents such as
benzene, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for colour discs.
● 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.

General Information

Hearing Safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
● Using headphones at a high volume can impair
your hearing. This product can produce sounds
in decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for
a normal person, even for exposure less than a
minute. The higher decibel ranges are offered
for those that may have already experienced
some hearing loss.
● Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
"comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds
"normal" can actually be loud and harmful to
your hearing. To guard against this, set your
volume to a safe level before your hearing
adapts and leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
● Set your volume control at a low setting.
● Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
● Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally
"safe" levels, can also cause hearing loss.
● Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and
take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following
guidelines when using your headphones.
● Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable
periods of time.
● Be careful not to adjust the volume as your
hearing adapts.
● Do not turn up the volume so high that you
can't hear what's around you.
● You should use caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
● Do not use headphones while operating a
motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it
may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many
areas.

connect the system's VIDEO jack to the video
input jack (or labelled as A/V In, Video In,
Composite or Baseband) on the TV set.
2 To listen to the TV channels through this DVD
system, use the audio cables (white/red-not
supplied) to connect AUX IN L/R jacks to the
corresponding AUDIO OUT jacks on the TV.
IMPORTANT!
– The progressive scan video quality is
only possible when using Y Pb Pr, and a
progressive scan TV is required.
1 Use component video cables (red/blue/green -
not supplied) to connect the DVD system's
COMPONENT (Pr/Cr Pb/Cb Y) jacks to
the corresponding Component video input jacks
(or labeled as Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr or YUV) on the TV.
2 To listen to the TV channels through this DVD
system, use the audio cables (white/red-not
supplied) to connect AUX IN L/R jacks to the
corresponding AUDIO OUT jacks on the TV.
3 If you are using a Progressive Scan TV (TV must
indicate Progressive Scan or ProScan capability),
to activate TV Progressive Scan, please refer to
your TV user manual. For DVD system
Progressive Scan function, see “Getting StartedSetting up Progressive Scan feature”.
