Mains plug  
DICHIARAZIONE DI CONFORMITA’  
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.  
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:  
Si dichiara che l’apparecchio LX8000SA, LX7000SA  
Philips risponde alle prescrizioni dell’art. 2 comma 1 del  
D.M. 28 Agosto 1995 n. 548.

Remove fuse cover and fuse.  
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp,A.S.T.A.  
or BSI approved type.  
Fatto a Eindhoven  
3
Refit the fuse cover.  
Philips Consumer Electronics  
Philips, Glaslaan 2  
5616 JB Eindhoven,The Netherlands  
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it  
should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its  
place.  
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value  
of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the  
distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.  
Norge  
Typeskilt finnes på apparatens underside.  
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a  
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp  
socket elsewhere.  
Observer: Nettbryteren er sekundert innkoplet.  
Den innebygde netdelen er derfor ikke frakoplet  
nettet så lenge apparatet er tilsluttet  
nettkontakten.  
How to connect a plug  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the  
following code: blue = neutral (N),  
brown = live (L).  
For å redusere faren for brann eller elektrisk støt, skal  
apparatet ikke utsettes for regn eller fuktighet.  
As these colours may not correspond with the colour  
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed  
as follows:  
DK  
Advarsel: Usynlig laserstråling ved åbning når  
sikkerhedsafbrydere er ude af funktion. Undgå  
utsættelse for stråling.  
– Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or  
coloured black.  
– Connect the brown wire to the terminal  
marked L or coloured red.  
– Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in  
the plug, marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green  
and yellow).  
Bemærk: Netafbryderen er sekundært indkoblet og  
ofbryder ikke strømmen fra nettet. Den indbyggede  
netdel er derfor tilsluttet til lysnettet så længe  
netstikket sidder i stikkontakten.  
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the  
cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not  
simply over the two wires.

Klass 1 laseraparat  
Varning! Om apparaten används på annat sätt än i  
denna bruksanvisning specificerats, kan användaren  
utsättas för osynlig laserstrålning, som överskrider  
gränsen för laserklass 1.

You can connect other audio and audio/visual equipment to  
the DVD system in order to use the Home Cinema Audio  
System’s surround sound capabilities.  
For listening to the playback from the  
CD recorder  
Connect the system’s DIGITAL IN jack to the  
DIGITAL OUT jack on a CD recorder.  
Notes:  
IMPORTANT!  
You cannot hear the SACD or MP3-CD playback if you use  
the digital connection.  
If the audio format of the digital input does not match the  
capabilities of your DVD Home Cinema System, it will produce  
a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.  
For connection to additional equipment, the  
audio/video cables are not supplied.  
When making connections, make sure the  
colour of cables matches the colour of jacks.  
Always refer to the instruction manual of the  
connected equipment to make an optimal  
connection.  
For recording  
Connect the system’s DIGITAL OUT jack to the  
DIGITAL IN jack on a CD recorder.  
Some DVDs have anti-copying devices, so you  
will not be able to record the disc through aVCR.  
Note:  
Analogue audio connections  
If DVDs are encoded with anti-copy protection, digital  
recording is not possible.  
For listening to the other equipment  
Connect the system’s AUX IN (R/L) jacks to the  
AUDIO OUT jacks on the other audio/visual device (such  
as a VCR, Laser Disc player or cassette deck).  
Replacing the centre speaker with theTV  
You can remove the centre speaker and redirect the sound  
through yourTV system if theTV has a CENTER IN jack.  
Connect the CENTER IN jack of yourTV to the  
CENTER OUT jack of your DVD system.  
For recording  
Connect the system’s LINE OUT (R/L) jacks to the  
AUDIO IN jacks on the recording device (such as a tape  
recorder or CD recorder).  
Caution: Do not touch the inner pins of the jacks  
on the rear panel. Electrostatic discharge may  
cause permanent damage to the unit.

Preparations  
Changing the volume level  
You can change the speakers’ sound distribution to suit  
your surround sound needs, except for CDDA DTS disc.  
Setting up the surround sound  
system  
You must connect all the speakers and set up the system  
properly in order to enjoy the Digital Cinema experience at  
home (refer to “Connections - Connecting the speakers”).  
You will have the feeling of being in the middle of the action  
because sound is coming from everywhere around you.  
The subwoofer can enhance the bass performance of your  
system dramatically.

G SL XX” or “SR XX” is displayed.  
IMPORTANT!  
Please sit at your usual listening position in order  
to set up the speaker balance correctly.  
Notes:  
– “XX” denotes the volume level between -6 to +6.  
For CDDA DTS disc, please refer to “System Setup (DVD) -  
Setting the sound ( ) - Speakers” for changing the volume  
level of the centre speaker, rear speakers and subwoofer.  
Placing the speakers  
To obtain the best surround effect, place the speakers as  
follows.  
Setting up the subwoofer  
1 Use the supplied subwoofer cable to connect the  
subwoofer’s audio input jack to the WOOFER LINE  
OUT jack of the DVD system.  
2 Connect the subwoofer’s AC power cable to the wall  
socket and switch on the power.  
G It will automatically switch on when receiving an audio  
signal input. If there is no audio signal input, it will switch off  
automatically.  
3 Set the phase polarity at the rear of the subwoofer at  
either 0o or 180o to determine better bass reproduction  
effect in your listening environment.

remote control  
2 Place the centre speaker above or below theTV so the  
centre channel’s sound is localised.

compartment with the correct  
polarity as indicated by “+“ and “-“  
symbols.  
Notes:  
To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front  
speakers too close to yourTV.  
3 Close the cover.  
If the rear surround speakers are installed farther away  
from the listening position than the front and centre speakers,  
it will weaken the surround effect.  
All speakers should be securely installed to prevent  
accidents and improve sound quality.  
CAUTION!  
Remove batteries if they are exhausted or will  
not be used for a long time.  
Do not use old and new or different types of  
batteries in combination.  
Batteries contain chemical substances, so they  
should be disposed off properly.
