Connecting Speaker Cable

Recommended Speaker Setup

Helpful Hints

You only need to make one video connection to your TV in
order to view the DVD playback.

If your TV has S-Video or Component
(Pr Pb Y) video jacks, use one of these

video connections instead for higher picture
quality.

If your TV has only a single Antenna In jack, yo u
will need an accessory RF modulator. The RF modulator
converts the video from the DVD system so it can play
through the TV’s Antenna connector. Refer to your
owner’s manual for proper connection.

Do not switch the P-SCAN to ‘ON’ position,
unless you have connected the DVD system to a
Progressive Scan TV using the Component (Pr Pb Y)
video jacks.

When listening to TV programs, press TV/AV button on
the remote to set the DVD system to TV/AV mode in order for
the sound to be heard.

properly, please contact Philips
at 1-800-531-0039 for
assistance. Due to the
inconsistency of disc formats
provided by various disc
manufacturers, your DVD
system may require a
playability enhancement or
upgrade. As DVD technology
advances, these enhancements
will become common and will
be easy to complete.

General Information

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 dust getting
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 in an
enclosed cabinet and allow about 10 cm
(4 inches) of free space all around the player for
adequate ventilation.

and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.
– Handle the disc by its edge, do not touch the
surface.

Care of the cabinet

– Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a

Step 2: Placing the speakers

and subwoofer

For best possible surround sound, all the
speakers (except the subwoofer) should be
placed at the same distance from the listening
position.

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 center speaker above the TV or the

DVD system so that the center channel’s sound
is localized.

3 Place the surround speakers at normal listening

ear level facing each other or mounted on the
wall.

4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV.

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

connect to your TV, the video signal will
automatically switch to S-Video when
you power up the DVD system. To set
the VIDEO OUT(put) to ‘Pr Pb Y,’ see
page 32.
– The progressive scan video quality is
only possible through Component Video
(Pr Pb Y) output.

Using Component Video jacks
(Pr Pb Y)

1 Use the component video cables (red/blue/

green) to connect the DVD system’s Pr Pb Y
jacks to the corresponding Component video
input jacks (or labeled as Pr/Cr Pb/Cb Y or YUV)
on the TV.

2 To hear the TV channels through this DVD

system, use the audio cables (white/red) to
connect TV IN (L/R) jacks to the
corresponding AUDIO OUT jacks on the TV.

3 If you are using a Progressive Scan TV (TV must

IMPORTANT!

– If the picture is distorted, check the
Video Output setting. Make sure it is set
to ‘S-Video,’ see page 32.

Using S-Video jack

1 Use the S-video cable (not supplied) to connect

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

2 To hear the TV channels through this DVD

system, use the audio cables (white/red) to
connect TV IN (L/R) jacks to the
corresponding AUDIO OUT jacks on the TV.

3 Set the P-SCAN switch to ‘OFF.’

IMPORTANT!

– If your TV only has a single Antenna In
jack (or labeled as 75 ohm or RF In,)
you will need an RF modulator in order
to view the DVD playback on the TV.
See your electronics retailer or contact
Philips for details on RF modulator
availability and operations.

Using an accessory RF modulator

1 Use the composite video cable (yellow) to

connect the DVD system’s CVBS jack to the
video input jack on the RF modulator.

2 Use the RF coaxial cable (not supplied) to

connect the RF modulator to your TV’s RF jack.

3 Set the P-SCAN switch to ‘OFF.’
