Quick Use Guide
–
Setup
–
–
Finding a suitable location
– Place the set on a flat, hard and stable
surface. Do not place the set on a carpet.
– Do not position the set on top of
other equipment that might heat it up
(e.g., receiver or amplifier).
–
–
– Do not put anything under the set (e.g.,
CDs, magazines).
Cleaning discs
Some problems occur because the disc
inside the player is dirty (frozen picture,
sound disruptions, picture distortions).
To avoid these problems, discs should be
cleaned on a regular basis.
Space for ventilation
– Place the apparatus in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent internal
heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4.5”)
clearance from the rear and the top of
the set and 5cm (2.3”) from the left and
right to prevent overheating.
To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the center
to the edge in a straight line.
Avoid high temperatures, moisture,
water and dust
– Apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
– Do not place any sources of danger on
the apparatus (e.g., liquid filled objects,
lighted candles).
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for discs.
Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD
system operates at a higher power than
regular DVD or CD players, cleaning CDs
intended for DVD or CD players may
damage the optical unit (laser).Therefore,
refrain from using a cleaning CD.

System Placement
Positioning for best effect
Placing the SonoWave speakers
The Philips HTS8000S HomeTheatre
System, with its proprietary 2-speaker
SonoWave system, is simple to install
compared to other regular home theatre
systems. However, proper system
placement is critical to ensure the most
immersive sound experience.
When placing the SonoWave speakers,
ensure that:
It should be placed at the same height
and at the normal listening ear level for
the best sound performance.
It should be placed at equal distance from
theTV, the FRONT R at the right hand
side and FRONT L at the left hand side
(as shown below).
–
–
The placement diagrams shown here are
only guidelines that provide great system
performance, you may find other
placement choices that are more suitable
for your room layout and provide the
sound you enjoy.
FRONT L
TV
FRONT R
Figure A : Example of placement on the
flat surface
–
It should be faced straight ahead towards
the listening area. Do not place at an
angle as it would reduce the system
performance.
Figure B : Example of wall mounting
placement
For SonoWave speakers setting, see
page 42.
Helpful Hints:
– To avoid magnetic interference, do not
position the SonoWave speakers too close to
yourTV.
– Allow adequate ventilation around the AV
subwoofer and DVD system.
