User Manual  
If any item is damaged or missing, contact  
your retailer or Philips.  
Maintenance  
When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a  
cleaning cloth.Wipe the disc from the center out,  
in a straight line.  
Safety information  
The standby switch does not disconnect the  
apparatus from mains.  
Do not expose the player,  
batteries or discs to humidity,  
rain, sand or excessive heat  
(caused by heating equipment or  
direct sunlight).Always keep the  
disc tray closed to avoid dust on  
the lens.  
Where the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler  
is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect  
device shall remain readily operable.  
Place the system on a flat, hard and stable  
surface.  
Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,  
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for colour discs.  
The apparatus shall not be exposed to  
dripping or splashing.  
Install the unit near the AC outlet and where the  
AC power plug can be easily reached.  
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.  
Place the system in a location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in  
your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)  
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit  
and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.  
Environmental information  
The ventilation should not be impeded by  
covering the ventilation openings with items,  
such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.  
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).  
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to  
excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources  
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.  
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,  
should be placed on the apparatus.  
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.  
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall  
be placed on the apparatus.  
If the system 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 system. Should this occur, the CD  
player would not operate normally. Leave the  
power on for about one hour with no disc in the  
system until normal playback is possible.  
The mechanical parts of the set contain self-  
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or  
lubricated.
