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.
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.
Where the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler
is used as the disconnet device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
Place the system on a flat, hard and stable
surface.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
Install the unit near the AC outlet and where the
AC power plug can be easily reached.
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.
The ventilation should not be impeded by
covering the ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, table-cloths, cur tains, etc.
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to
excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the apparatus.
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus.

General Information
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 parts of the set contain self-
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or lubricated.
Batteries (batter y pack or batteries installed)
shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
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.
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.
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.
