General Information/Maintenance
●
The ventilation should not be impeded by
covering the ventilation openings with items, such
as newspapers table-cloths, curtains, etc.
Environmental information
Any 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).
Cleaning the cabinet
Use soft cloth slightly moistened
with a mild detergent solution.
Do not use a solution containing
alcohol, spirits, ammonia or
abrasives.
●
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.
Cleaning discs
To clean a CD, wipe it in a
●
straight line from the center towards the edge
using soft and lint-free cloth.A cleaning agent
may damage the disc.
Write only on the printed side of a CDR(W)
and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.
Handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the
surface.
Care and safety information
●
●
Avoid high temperatures, moisture,
water and dust
●
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to
humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by
heating equipment or direct sunlight).Always
keep disc trays closed to avoid dust buildup on
the lens.
Cleaning the disc lens
●
After prolonged use, dirt or dust may accumulate
at the disc lens.To ensure good playback quality,
clean the disc lens with Philips CD Lens Cleaner
or any commercially available cleaner. Follow the
instructions supplied with cleaner.
●
●
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus.
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the apparatus.
Finding a suitable location
●
●
Place the player on a flat, hard, stable surface.
Avoid condensation problem
Cleaning the head and the tape paths
To ensure good recording and playback quality,
clean the head A, the capstan(s) B, and
pressure roller(s) C after every 50 hours of tape
operation.
●
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.
●
●
Use a cotton swab slightly moistened with
cleaning fluid or alcohol.
You also can clean the head by playing a cleaning
tape once.

according to the limitation level in each country.
The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is
activated, playback will be prohibited if the
software’s level is higher than the user-set level.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation): A system
for converting analog sound signal to digital
signal for later processing without data
compression.
Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal
recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for
reproduction control. By using screen menus
recorded on aVideo CD or SVCD that supports
PBC, you can enjoy interactive-type software as
well as software having a search function.
Plug and Play (for tuner installation):
Once powered on, the system will prompt the
user to proceed with the automatic installation
of radio stations by simply pressing 2;on the
main unit.
Region code: A system allowing discs to be
played only in preset regions.This unit will only
play discs that have compatible region codes.You
can find the region code of your unit from the
product label. Some discs are compatible with
more than one region (or ALL regions).
S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending
separate signals for luminance and the color.You
can use S-Video only if yourTV set has S-Video
In jack.
Sampling Frequency: Frequency of data
sampling when analog data is converted to
digital data. Sampling frequency numerically
represents how many times the original analog
signal is sampled per second.
Analog: Sound that has not been turned into
numbers.Analog sound varies, while digital sound
has specific numerical values.These jacks send
audio through two channels, the left and right.
Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and
horizontal sizes of a displayed image.The
horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventionalTVs. is
4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9.
AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the
DVD System that send audio to another system
(TV set, Stereo, etc.).
Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a
given length of music; measured in kilobits per
second, or kbps. Or, the speed at which you
record. Generally, the higher the bit rate better
the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use
more space on a Disc.
Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music
piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles.A
title is composed of several chapters. Each
chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling

through multiple channels, instead of just two
channels as analog does.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system
developed by Dolby Laboratories containing up
