Features  
Your DVD MicroTheatre with 2.0 channel full  
digital amplifier creates the same dynamic sound  
qualities that you find in full-fledged cinemas and  
incorporates some of the best features in home  
theater technology.  
Other features include:  
Built-in Dolby Digital decoder, supporting  
Incredible Surround and DSC sound setting.  
If any item is damaged or missing, contact  
your retailer or Philips.  
Additional Component Connections  
Lets you connect other audio and audio/visual  
components to the DVD micro theatre.  
Environmental information  
Night mode  
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).  
Lets you compress the dynamic range, reducing  
the difference in loudness between different  
sounds in Dolby Digital mode.  
Parental Control (Rating Level)  
Lets you set a ratings level so that your children  
cannot watch a DVD that has a rating higher  
than you set.  
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.  
Sleep/Wake-upTimer  
Enables the system to switch on/off automatically  
at a preset time.  
Installation  
Place the player on a flat, hard, and stable surface.  
Progressive Scan  
Provides high quality flicker-free images for film  
based sources.When a picture refreshes, its  
vertical resolution can double to 525 lines.  
In a cabinet, allow about 10cm (4 inches) of free  
space all around the player for adequate  
ventilation.  
Note:  
To fully enjoy the progressive scan feature, you  
need a progressive scanTV.

General Information  
Do not expose your player to extreme  
temperatures or humidity.  
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping  
or splashing.  
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall  
be placed on the apparatus.  
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,  
shall be placed on the apparatus.  
Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the  
AC power plug can be reached easily.  
The ventilation should not be impeded by  
covering the ventilation openings with items,  
such as newpapers, table-cloths, curtains, et.  
Maintenance  
When a disc becomes dirty,  
clean it with a cleaning cloth.  
Wipe the disc from the center  
out, in a straight line.  
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.  
Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,  
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for colour discs.  
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.

How to transfer music files from PC to a  
USB mass storage device  
– If you have not organized MP3/WMA files into  
any albums on your disc, an album "01" will be  
automatically assigned for all those files.  
– Make sure that the file names of MP3 files end  
with .mp3. and the file names ofWMA files end  
with .wma.  
– For DRM protectedWMA files, useWindows  
Media Player 10 (or later) for conversion.Visit  
Media Player andWM DRM (Windows Media  
Digital Rights Management).  
By dragging and dropping music files, you can  
easily transfer your favorite music from PC to a  
USB mass storage device.  
For the flash player, you can also use its music  
management software for the music transfer.  
However, thoseWMA files may be  
unplayable for compatibility reasons.  
How to organize your MP3/WMA files on  
the USB mass storage device  
This Hi-Fi system will browse the MP3/WMA  
files in the folders/sub-folders/titles order.  
Example:  
1 Check the USB device has been properly  
connected. (See Installation: Connecting an  
additional appliance).

Multichannel: DVD is specified to have all  
sound tracks constitute one sound field.  
Multichannel refers to a structure of sound  
tracks having three or more channels.  
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.  
Parental control: A function of the DVD to  
limit playback of the disc by the age of the users  
according to the limitation level in each country.  
The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is

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 the  
better the sound quality. However, higher bit  
rates use more space on a Disc.  
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.
