Your portable DVD player plays 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, and stereo or multi-
channel sound (depending on the disc and on your playback set-up).
The unique features of DVD-Video, such as selection of soundtrack
and subtitle languages, and of different camera angles (again depend-
ing on the disc), are all included.
What’s more, parental lock lets you decide which discs your chil-
dren will be able to see.You will find your player remarkably easy
to use with the On-Screen Display and player display in combina-
tion with the remote control.

drive mechanism like those in CD and DVD players.

blank spots on the LCD screen. LCD displays commonly
have imperfections, termed as 'bright dots' by the LCD
industry.A limited number of bright dots were once considered an
inevitable side effect of LCD mass production.With Philips' strict
quality control procedures used in our Portable DVD Players, our
LCD displays are produced with zero tolerance for bright dots.

Policy to guarantee optimal screen quality.Warranty service varies
from region to region. Contact your local Philips representative for
more detailed information.

3General information
Power Sources
This unit operates on a supplied AC adaptor, car adapter, or a
rechargeable battery pack.
•Make sure that the input voltage of the AC adaptor is in line
with the local voltage. Otherwise, the AC adaptor and unit may
be damaged.
•Do not touch the AC adaptor with wet hands to prevent elec-
tric shock.

•When connecting with car power (cigarette lighter) adaptor, be
sure the input voltage of the adaptor is identical with car voltage.
•Unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet when the unit is not
used for long periods of time.
•Hold the plug to disconnect the AC adaptor. Do not pull the
power cord.
Please always use supplied AC/DC adaptor (AY4112)
Safety and maintenance
•Do not disassemble the unit for laser rays are dangerous to eyes.
Any service should be done by qualified service personnel.
•Unplug the AC adaptor to cut the power if liquid or objects get
inside the unit.
•Take care not to drop the unit or subject it to strong shocks,
which may cause malfunction.
•Do not expose to excessive heat caused by heating equipment
or direct sunlight.
•This product is not waterproof: do not allow your player to be
submersed in water.Water entering the player may cause major
damage.
•Do not use any cleaning agents containing alcohol,
ammonia, benzene, or abrasives as these may harm
the player.
•Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. Do not
place any sources of danger on the appartus (e.g. liquid filled
objects,lighted candles)
•Do not touch the lens!

Hearing Safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
•Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing.This product
can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a
normal person, even for exposure less than a minute.The higher decibel
ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.
•Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level”
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening,
what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing.To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level
before your hearing adapts and leave it there.
•Excessive sound pressure from earhones and headphones can
cause hearing loss.
To establish a safe volume level:
•Set your volume control at a low setting.
•Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, without distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
•Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally “safe” levels, can
also cause hearing loss.
•Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate
breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using
your headphones.
•Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
•Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
•Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s
around you.
•You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in poten-
tially hazardous situations.
•Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle,
cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in many areas.

•Important (for models with by-packed headphones): Philips
guarantees compliance with the maximum sound power of its audio
players as determined by relevant regulatory bodies only with the
original model of provided headphones. In case this one needs
replacement, we recommend that you contact your retailer to
order a model identical to that of the original provided by Philips.
•Traffic safety: do not use while driving or cycling as you may
cause an accident.
When the player is in use for a long period of time, the sur-
face will be heated.This is normal.
Handling discs
•Do not attach paper or tape to the disc.
•Keep the disc away from direct sunlight or heat
sources.
•Store the disc in a disc case after playback.
•To clean, wipe the disc outwards from the center with a soft,
lint-free clean cloth.

not indicate a malfunction.
