Mains plug<br />
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.<br />
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:<br />
1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.<br />
2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A.<br />
or BSI approved type.<br />
3 Refit the fuse cover.<br />
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it<br />
should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its<br />
place.<br />
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value<br />
of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the<br />
distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.<br />
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a<br />
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp<br />
socket elsewhere.<br />
How to connect a plug<br />
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the<br />
following code: blue = neutral (N),<br />
brown = live (L).<br />
¶ As these colours may not correspond with the colour<br />
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed<br />
as follows:<br />
–Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or<br />
coloured black.<br />
–Connect the brown wire to the terminal<br />
marked L or coloured red.<br />
–Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the<br />
plug, marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and<br />
yellow).<br />
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the<br />
cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not<br />
simply over the two wires.<br />

<strong>Philips</strong>.<br />
<strong>DVD</strong> discs<br />
Your <strong>Philips</strong> <strong>DVD</strong> Receiver player will play digital video discs<br />
conforming to the universal <strong>DVD</strong> Video standard. In<br />
addition to <strong>DVD</strong> Video discs, you will be able to play audio<br />
CDs.<br />
<strong>DVD</strong> Video discs have “Titles” and “Chapters”. There can<br />
be several Titles on one disc and each Title can contain<br />
several Chapters. Titles and Chapters are numbered (e.g.<br />
Title 1, Title 2, etc., and Chapter 1, 2, 3, etc.).<br />
Usually one Title will show the disc publisher and studio<br />
logos. Under another Title is the featue film itself. Other<br />
Titles can contain trailers for other films also available, or<br />
introduction notes from the film, or alternative endings for<br />
the film. There are many possibilities with Digital Versatile<br />
Discs.<br />
Chapters within the main Title allow you to search quickly<br />
for a specific point on the disc. Many discs have a “Chapter<br />
Menu”, sometimes called “Scene Index” or “Scene Menu”,<br />
that displays the first shot from each Chapter and allows<br />
you to select a shot and play the disc from that point<br />
onwards. <strong>DVD</strong> discs can be PAL or NTSC. This player can<br />
play both types (as long as the zone is correct formatted).<br />
<strong>DVD</strong> discs allow up to eight languages and 32 subtitles on a<br />
single disc. You can select and change the language and<br />
subtitle to suit yourself. You can play the whole disc or just<br />
part of it and view it from different angles. However,<br />
availability of these features varies among discs. Check the<br />
disc menu or outer case to see if such features (for<br />
example, subtitles, angles) are available on the disc.<br />
INTRODUCTION<br />
Player Zones<br />
There are six world zones for the distribution of <strong>DVD</strong><br />
Discs. The zone your player is intended for is indicated on<br />
the “Zone Label”. This should be the same as the label on<br />
discs available in your region. If you have any difficulty<br />
playing a disc, make sure the disc is the same zone as your<br />
player.<br />

Anti-copy disc protection<br />
Some <strong>DVD</strong> discs have anti-copying devices. When playing<br />
these discs through a television will give the highest quality<br />
picture. However, you will not be able to record the disc<br />
through a VCR.<br />
Environmental Information<br />
All unnecessary packaging has been omitted. We have tried<br />
to make the packaging easy to separate into three materials:<br />
cardboard (box), polystyrene foam (buffer) and<br />
polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).<br />
Your system consists of materials which can be recycled<br />
and reused if disassembled by a specialised company. Please<br />
observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of<br />
packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.<br />
Installation<br />
● Place the player on a flat, hard and stable surface.<br />
● There must be sufficient room in front of the player for the<br />
drawer to open.<br />
● In a cabinet, allow about 10cm (4 inch) of free space all<br />
around the player for adequate ventilation.<br />
● Do not expose your player to extreme temperatures or<br />
humidity.<br />
Cleaning Discs<br />
● When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth.<br />
Wipe the disc from the centre out, in a straight line.<br />
● Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially<br />
available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for analogue<br />
discs.

Recording from the digital output<br />
The digital output can be used to record digitally a<br />
multichannel surround sound audio signal (Dolby Digital or<br />
DTS) to a CD-R. To convert the digital multichannel signal<br />
into a stereo signal, following settings have to be activated<br />
in the Disc Setup Menu :<br />
– In “Audio Set”, set to 2 audio channel (see page 25)<br />
– In “Digital Out”, set to PCM (see page 26)<br />
Note:<br />
– Digital recording is not possible when the digital source<br />
material is copy-protected.<br />

Setting up the Digital<br />
Cinema system<br />
You must connect all the speakers and set up the system<br />
properly in order to enjoy the Digital Cinema experience<br />
at home. You will have the feeling of being in the middle of<br />
the action, because sound is coming from everywhere<br />
around you. The subwoofer can enhance the bass<br />
performance of your system dramatically. Look for discs<br />
with the marks which indicates the<br />
material is encoded for surround sound.<br />
The availability of the various surround sound modes<br />
depends on the number of speakers used and the incoming<br />
sound information available on the disc.<br />
Speakers Placement<br />
General hints for positioning<br />
● Avoid positioning the speakers in a corner or on the floor<br />
as this will boost the bass tones too much. Placing the<br />
speakers behind curtains, furniture, etc., will reduce the<br />
treble response.<br />
● The speakers should be visible from the listening area.<br />
● For the best surround effects, install all speakers. If a centre<br />
speaker or subwoofer is not connected, the sound from the<br />
unused channel will be distributed to the connected<br />
speakers in order to reproduce the best possible surround<br />
sound.<br />
● Each room has different acoustic characteristics and the<br />
positioning possibilities often are limited. You can find the<br />
best position for your speakers by experimenting or<br />
referring to the picture below.<br />
Positioning the front speakers<br />
The front speakers should be placed to the right and left at<br />
an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the listening<br />
position.<br />
SYSTEM SETUP<br />
Positioning the centre speaker<br />
The centre speaker should be placed in the centre between<br />
both front speakers and should always be placed in line<br />
with the television (e.g. underneath or on top of the TV).<br />
The best height for the centre speaker is the height of the<br />
listener’s ears (while seated).<br />
Positioning the surround speakers<br />
The surround speakers should face each other and be<br />
placed at normal listening ear level or mounted on the wall<br />
at the back of the room.<br />
Positioning the Subwoofer<br />
Place the subwoofer on a solid floor where resonance is<br />
unlikely to occur. The subwoofer can be positioned<br />
anywhere in the room because it is not possible to locate<br />
the source of deep tones. Nevertheless, you should not<br />
place it in the centre of a room, the bass could be<br />
extremely weakened. Do not place an object on the<br />
subwoofer.<br />
Note:<br />
– To avoid magnetic interference with the picture on your TV,<br />
do not position the front speakers too close to the TV.<br />
Speakers Setup<br />
Before operating your system in TV, VCR or CDR mode,<br />
you will need to set up the speaker configuration and the<br />
distance from the listening position to each speaker. For<br />
speaker setup in <strong>DVD</strong> mode, refer to “<strong>DVD</strong>/CD operation<br />
- Audio Set”.<br />
Note:<br />
– It is only necessary to set the parameters once unless you<br />
change the speaker configuration.<br />

Subwoofer Setup<br />
Before you operate the subwoofer, complete the<br />
subwoofer connections. Switch on your player and select<br />
the sound source.<br />
Switch on/off the subwoofer<br />
1 To activate the subwoofer, set the on/off switch at the<br />
rear of the subwoofer to ‘ON’ position.<br />
● If the subwoofer is not to be used for a longer period of<br />
time, it is advisable to set the on/off switch to ‘OFF’ position.<br />
2 Rotate the VOLUME knob at the front panel of<br />
subwoofer until you hear a click, clockwise to switch<br />
on and anti-clockwise to switch off.<br />
➜ The LED indicator will light up in green when the<br />
subwoofer is switched on.<br />
Volume Adjustment<br />
You can adjust the subwoofer to suit the sound level of<br />
your front speakers. Reinforcing the bass sound gives you a<br />
greater sense of atmosphere.<br />
1 Adjust the VOLUME on the player until the sound from<br />
the front speakers is not distorted. If it is distorted, the<br />
sound from the subwoofer also will be distorted.<br />
2 Play your favourite songs.<br />
● Male vocal tunes containing bass sounds are the most<br />
suitable samples for adjusting the subwoofer volume.<br />
3 Adjust the VOLUME on the subwoofer to determine the<br />
loudness of the bass sound from the subwoofer.<br />
Phase Selector<br />
Use PHASE SELECTOR located at the rear of the<br />
subwoofer to select the phase polarity. Selecting the<br />
polarity at either 0˚ or 180˚ may determine better bass<br />
reproduction effect in certain listening environments<br />
(depending on the type of front speakers and the position<br />
of the subwoofer). It also may change the expanse and<br />
tightness of the sound, and affect the feeling of the sound<br />
field. Select the setting that provides the sound you prefer<br />
when you are in your normal listening position.<br />
Repeat the adjustment for Volume and Phase Polarity to<br />
suit your preference. After you have adjusted the<br />
subwoofer to the settings you desire, use the VOLUME<br />
control on the player to adjust the volume of the<br />
subwoofer and the other speakers. You will not need to<br />
adjust the subwoofer settings again, even when you change<br />
the volume level of the player.<br />

For proper surround sound, make sure you have<br />
followed the Connections and System Setup<br />
procedure fully.<br />
● Press SURR. MODE (or MODE on the remote control)<br />
to select the available output modes.<br />
Dolby Digital Surround<br />
The Dolby Digital Surround system requires connection of<br />
all five speakers (front left, centre, front right, surround right,<br />
surround left) for correct surround sound reproduction.<br />
This 5.1 channel digital surround format allows for five<br />
individual full-range (20Hz - 20kHz) channels plus an LFE<br />
(Low Frequency Effects) channel for the low-range (20Hz -<br />
120kHz) effects. It creates a realistic sound similar to<br />
theatre and cinema. A large number of <strong>DVD</strong> discs have<br />
recorded in Dolby Digital Surround.<br />
Dolby Pro Logic Surround<br />
The Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is a specially<br />
encoded two channel analogue format that will produce<br />
sound through four speaker channels (front left, centre,<br />
front right, mono surround) when a Dolby Pro Logic<br />
Decoder is used. It is also compatible with stereo systems<br />
but the user will only have two channels (Front Left &<br />
Right) of sound.<br />
Dolby 3 Stereo<br />
Dolby 3 Stereo produces sound through three speaker<br />
channels (front left, centre, front right) from a two channel<br />
analogue signal. It is not a surround format, so it does not<br />
require surround speakers.<br />
Stereo<br />
All sound is reproduced and played through the front left<br />
and right speakers. This enables standard stereo<br />
reproduction.
Soundfield Effects<br />
The digital Soundfield Effects can recreate the effects of<br />
sounds reflected from walls or ceilings to obtain the sound<br />
presence of real environments.<br />
STADIUM<br />
This mode recreates a large stadium effect using very long<br />
reverberation times.<br />
STAGE<br />
This effect recreates a stage environment, emphasizing<br />
sound from the front speakers.<br />
HALL<br />
The surround effect recreates a hall using lots of reflections.<br />
Suitable for orchestral music such as classical and opera.<br />
DISCO<br />
This surround effect generates a feeling of being in a disco<br />
or club. It is suitable for all types of music that are played in<br />
discos.<br />
LIVE<br />
This soundfield effect is suitable for all types of music.<br />

Parental Control<br />
Some <strong>DVD</strong> discs have a parental level assigned to the disc.<br />
The range of parental controls is from 1 to 8. The meaning<br />
of the levels 1 to 8 varies depending upon the country and<br />
the type of content on the disc.<br />
The player can be set in a similar way. If the player’s<br />
parental level is set to 8, it will play all discs. If the player’s<br />
parental level is set below 8, only discs with a lower or<br />
equal level will play. For example, if the player is set to 5,<br />
only discs with parental control ratings of 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1 will<br />
play. To play a higher rated disc, you must change the<br />
player’s rating to a higher number.<br />
Alternative scenes with a lower rating might be included.<br />
The player plays the highest rated scene that the parental<br />
setting allows. For example, consider a disc that generally is<br />
suitable for most audiences, and it is rated as level 2 for the<br />
most part. However, in the middle, there are also scenes<br />
rated at 5 (not suitable for children).<br />

The player is delivered without a password. When you set<br />
the parental level for the first time, you are invited to enter<br />
your own password (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4). This becomes the<br />
password for the player. You must know this password<br />
in order to change it. Some films do not have<br />
parental control, the disc will play regardless of<br />
the player setting.<br />
