General Information  
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.  
This product complies with the radio  
interference requirements of the European  
Community.  
Safety Information  
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.  
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).  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Energy Star  
R
As an ENERGY STAR Partner; Philips has  
determined that this product meets the  
R
ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency.
