Optimum disc playability : ensuring  
excellent picture quality  
Philips components and modules for the various  
CD applications have always enjoyed an excellent  
reputation in the market place for super disc  
playability - the ability to play discs which may be  
scratched, soiled or not fully according to the  
standard specification.This position has been  
underlined by tests showing the superior  
performance of the various Philips players, as well  
as by the positive experiences of millions of  
individual consumers around the world.  
Presenting Super Error Correction  
To ensure consistently good results when playing  
Video CD discs of all quality grades and  
conditions, Philips has introduced further  
improvements in the system's playability.These  
developments together are called Super Error  
Correction, a proprietary Philips technology  
optimizing the system's ability to handle less-than-  
perfect discs with the minimum disturbance to  
normal playing.  
Constantly improving performance  
As the penetration of the CD system has  
increased, and new applications like CD-ROM  
andVideo CD have become commonplace,  
Philips Components - as the CD technology  
inventor and as one of the major suppliers of CD  
player modules in the industry - has constantly  
improved the performance of its products.  
One of the ways in which this benefits users is by  
optimum disc playability.This is an important  
parameter for CD players other than CD Audio,  
and especially for theVideo CD applications,  
because any loss of data from the disc will at best  
cause disturbances in the reproduced picture, and  
at worst can cause the player to lose track so that  
disc playing fails.  
By effectively eliminating virtually all errors arising  
under normal playing conditions, Super Error  
Correction ensures that the picture quality as  
seen by the user is independent of disc play.The  
video encoding and processing during mastering  
of the disc, and the MPEG-1 decoding and video  
encoding in the signal processing stages, are now  
the only limiting factors for picture quality.

General Information  
Safety Information  
IMPORTANT:  
PLEASE NOTETHATTHEVOLTAGE  
SELECTOR LOCATED ATTHE REAR  
OFTHIS SYSTEM IS PRESET AT 220V  
FROMTHE FACTORY.  
FOR COUNTRIESTHAT OPERATE AT  
110-127V, PLEASE ADJUSTTO 110-127V  
BEFOREYOU SWITCH ONTHE  
SYSTEM.  
Before operating the player, check that the  
operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or  
the voltage indication beside the voltage  
selector) of your player is identical with the  
voltage of your local power supply. If not, please  
consult your dealer.The typeplate is located at  
the rear of your player.  
When the player is switched on, do not move it  
around.  
The type plate (which contains the serial  
number) is located at the rear of the player.  
Recording is permissible if copyright or  
other rights of third parties are not  
infringed.  
Place the player on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet).  
Place the player in a location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in  
your player. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)  
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit  
and 5 cm (2 inches) from the each side.  
Do not expose the player to excessive moisture,  
rain, sand or heat sources.  
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).  
Under no circumstances should you repair the  
player yourself, as this will invalidate the  
warranty!  
If the player 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 player. Should this occur, the CD  
player will not operate normally. Leave the  
power on for about one hour with no disc in the  
player until normal playback is possible.  
Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected  
problems. See whether these problems  
disappear if you unplug the AC power cord and  
plug it in again after a few seconds.  
Your system consists of materials which can be  
recycled and reused if disassembled by a  
specialized company. Please observe the local  
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging  
materials, exhausted batteries and old  
equipment.
