Introduction
Your Philips DVD-Video player will playback digital video
discs conforming to the universal DVD-Video standard.
With it, you will be able to enjoy full-length movies with
true cinema picture quality, as well as stereo or multi-
channel sound (depending on the disc and your playback
setup). The unique features of DVD-Video, such as selection
of sound track, subtitle languages and different camera
angles (again depending on the disc), are all included.
In addition to DVD-Video discs, you will be able to playback
all Video CDs and Audio CDs (including finalized CD
Recordable and CD Rewritable).

Safety Information
¶
Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain, sand
or heat sources.
¶
Place the player on a firm, flat surface.
¶
Keep the player away from domestic heating equipment
and direct sunlight.
¶
In a cabinet, allow about 2.5 cm (1 inch) of free space all
around the player for adequate ventilation.
¶
If the DVD-Video player cannot read CDs/DVDs correctly,
use a commonly available cleaning CD/DVD to clean the
lens before taking the DVD-Video player to be repaired.
Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens. Always keep
the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.
¶
The lens may cloud over when the DVD-Video player is
suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a
CD/DVD is not possible then. Leave the power on for
about one hour with no disc in the unit until normal
playback is possible.
Cleaning discs
¶
When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
¶
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for analog
discs.
