INTRODUCTION
The Compact Disc system is a major step forward in the sphere
of audio technology. By employing the most sophisticated digital
and optical technologies, Compact Disc not only produces the
ultimate in sound reproduction, it also offers unprecedented ease
of operation, with rapid access to every track on the disc and the
possibility of programming._

INSTALLATION
CHECKING THE POWER SUPPLY SETTING
• Check that the type plate on the rear of your player indicates the
correct supply voltage.
• If your mains supply voltage is different, consult your dealer or
our Service Organisation.
Important!
Certain versions of this player are equipped with a voltage
selector (e), which enables you to set the player to the correct
mains voltage yourself. When changing the voltage setting from
220/240 V to 110/127 V or vice versa, it is also necessary to
change the mains fuse to one of the correct rating.
Replacing the mains fuse
• Using a screwdriver, remove the mains fuse holder (f).
• Remove the old fuse and replace with a fuse of the correct
rating (800 mA for 110/127 V; 500 mA for 220/240 V).
• Refit the mains fuse holder.
REMOVING THE TRANSIT CLAMPS (Fig. 1-2)
The two red transit clamps on the bottom lockthe play mechanism
to protect it during transportation.
• Turn the player upside down.
• Turn the clamps anti-clockwise and remove them from the
player.
• Store them in the recesses provided.
Replace the clamps if you wish to transport the player. To do this,
turn the player upside down, insert the clamps in the holes
provided and rotate them clockwise until they lock in position.
INSERTING AND REPLACING THE BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE
CONTROL (Fig. 3)
• Open the battery compartment.
• Insert the two batteries according to the diagram in the
compartment.
• Replace the cover.
The life of the batteries is around one year. Remove them when
they are flat or when you are not intending to use the remote
control for some time.
In this way you will prevent damage to the remote control by
possible battery leakage.
For replacement only use batteries of the type R03, UM4 or AAA.
SITING THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER
Free-standing
• Always position the player horizontally on a flat, firm surface.
• Allow a free space of at least 3 cm above the player so as not
to interfere with the cooling of the player.
In an audio rack
• The player can be sited in any desired position.
Stacked
• Site the player preferably at the bottom or at the top.
• Never position the player directly on top of a high-power
amplifier, as such an amplifier gives off a substantial amount of
heat.
Important!
Never allow the player to stand for long periods in direct sunlight
or near a heat source.
CONNECTIONS (Fig. 4)
a Connection for the mains lead
b ANALOGUE OUTPUT:
FIXED (1): for connection to a PHILIPS amplifier or HiFi system
with its own remote control.
VARIABLE (2): For connection to an amplifier or HiFi system
without its own remote control.
• Insert a red plug into the ’R’ socket (right-hand channel) and the
other plug into the ’L’ socket (left-hand channel) of the FIXED
output (b-1) or the VARIABLE output (b-2). In the case of
connection via the VARIABLE output, the sound level can be
adjusted with the ▼ VOLUME ▲ keys on the remote control.
• Insert the two otherplugs into the corresponding sockets of the
CD or AUX input of your amplifier.
You can also use the TUNER orTAPE IN connection, but never
the PHONO input. This is not suitable for Compact Disc
reproduction.
c DIGITAL OUTPUT COAX: for digital signal processing or future
applications such as CD-I. This output supplies a digital signal
and can therefore only be connected to an input which is
suitable for this signal. Use here a lead with one cinch plug on
either end.
Important!
Never connect this socket to a non-digital input of an amplifier,
such as AUX, CD, TAPE, PHONO, etc. This can damage the
amplifier and the loudspeakers.
d REMOTE CONTROL OUT IN: for a remote control system.
Use this connection for:
- Connecting up the equipment when you are incorporating the
player in a PHILIPS HiFi system with its own remote control
system.
- Connecting the remote control receiver EM 2200, available as
an accessory, if the siting of the player prevents its IR REMOTE
eye from receiving the signals from the remote control directly.
e VOLTAGE SELECTOR: see 'Checking the pqwer supply set¬
ting’.
f MAINS FUSE HOLDER: see 'Replacing the mains fuse’.

LISTENING WITH HEADPHONES (PHONES)
Connect headphones with a 6.3 mm jack plug and an impedance
between 8 and 2000 ohms to the PHONES socket.
The sound level you hear is dependent on the impedance of the
headphones and the signal level on the disc itself._

RECORDING FROM YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER (EDIT)
If you wish to make a tape recording of a disc or a programme, it
can be useful to store the recording time of the tape in the player’s
memory.
Should the disc or the programme be longer than one side of the
tape, apausewillthen be inserted automatically afterthelasttrack
which fits onto that side. This will prevent the disc or the pro¬
gramme continuing to play when the tape has already stopped.
Important!
- If the player has been connected to the amplifier via the
VARIABLE output, the T VOLUME A keys may not be used
during recording, as they affect the strength of the signal from
the player.
- If the sound level has been reduced in the PRESETS mode, it
must be returned to the sound level set on the amplifier using
CURSOR N>.
• Press EDIT.
> CASSETTE lights up with beneath it *C 000\
• Press NEXT or PREVIOUS until the required recording time
appears on the display (you will see successively: ’C 30’, ’C 45’,
’C 60’, ’C 90’ and *C 120’) or key in the recording time of the tape
using the *1-0’ digit keys. For a 60-minute tape you should key
in ’060’.
> The recording time is now stored in the player’s memory; you
can now record the disc or the programme.
• Press PLAY/REPLAY.
> CASSETTE SIDE A lights up, followed by PLAY or PROGRAM
PLAY.
> The track number indicator shows which tracks can be record¬
ed on side A of the tape; these numbers will be played one after
the other.

> CASSETTE SIDE B lights up and the track number indicator
shows which tracks can be recorded on side B of the tape.
• Press PAUSE.
> The track numbers shown on the number indicator are played
in that order.
Note!

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
CARE OF THE DISCS
Although both sides of a disc are protected by a special coating,
It is still advisable to treat the discs with care:
• Never leave discs lying around, put them back in their holders
immediately after use.
• Never write on the printed side!
• Do not attach any stickers on the disc.
• Keep the shiny surface of the disc clean. Use a soft lint-free
cloth and always wipe the disc in a straight line from centre to
edge. You may breath lightly on the disc first.
The cleaning set SBC 3540, available separately, is a useful
accessory for cleaning your discs. It contains a protective sup¬
port, a special disc cleaning cloth and a bottle of cleaning fluid.
important !
Cleaning agents for conventional records are not suitable for
cleaning a Compact Disc. Nor may detergents or abrasive clean-
ing agents be used._
PLAYER MAINTENANCE
A chamois leather slightly moistened with water is sufficient for
cleaning the player. Do not use cleaning agents containing
alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasives.
The disc tray should be kept free of dust with a dry cloth._

FAULTS AND THEIR LIKELY CAUSES
Insufficient familiarity with the combination of a new product and
new discs may lead to faults arising during use. These are
generally caused by simple errors in operation or external factors.
It is perhaps useful to check the points listed below and where
possible remedy these before taking your player for repair.
- The transit clamps have not been removed.
- Condensation has formed on the lens of the laser due to a
dramatic change in temperature. This will disappear automati¬
cally after some time.
- There is a foreign object in the disc tray.
- The disc has not been inserted with the printed side up or there
is no disc in the tray.
- The disc is dirty, badly scratched or warped.
- The player has been connected to the PHONO socket of the
amplifier.
If the fault remains, try to clear it by switching the player off and on.
If this also fails to help, do not continue experimenting, but remove
the plug from the socket and consult your dealer.
Certain faults may be caused by a disc. In order to help determine
the precise cause, take the disc with which the fault occurred with
you when you take the player for repair.
Under no circumstances should you repair the player yourself,
as this will invalidate the guarantee! _
