The machine does not contain any  
user-serviceable parts. Please leave  
all maintenance work to qualified  
personnel.

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.

placement  
For SonoWave speakers setting, see  
page 42.  
Helpful Hints:

position the SonoWave speakers too close to  
yourTV.  
– Allow adequate ventilation around the AV  
subwoofer and DVD system.
