2 Introduction
2.1 Your portable DVD player
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
multichannel 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.
2.2 Unpacking
First check and identify the contents of your package, as listed
below:
•Portable DVD player • Remote Control (AY5511)
•Car adaptor (12V) (AY4115) • AC power adaptor (AY4117)
•User manual • Antenna
•Car headrest mounting kit (AY4246) • AV cable
2.3 Placement
•Place the player on a firm, flat surface.
•Keep away from domestic heating equipment and direct sunlight.
•If the player cannot read CDs/DVDs correctly, try using a com-
monly available cleaning CD/DVD to clean the lens before taking
the player to be repaired. Other cleaning methods may destroy
the lens.
•Always keep the disc door closed to avoid dust on the lens.
•The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved
from cold to warm surroundings. It is then not possible to play a
CD/DVD. Leave the player in a warm environment until the
moisture evaporates.

2.5 Zero Bright DotTM
Enjoy highest-quality images that are free from annoying
blank spots on the LCD screen. LCD displays commonly have
imperfections, termed as 'bright dots' by the LCD industry.A limit-
ed 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. Select Portable
DVD Players come with Philips Zero Bright DotTM Policy to guaran-
tee 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 or remove the battery
pack 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
Safety and maintenance
•Do not disassemble the unit for laser rays are dangerous to
eyes.
Any service should be done by qualified service personnel.
PET2008_738_93_CCR_Eng 2008.4.2 15:41 Page 10

•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.
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.
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.
PET2008_738_93_CCR_Eng 2008.4.2 15:41 Page 11

•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 guar-
antees 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 retail-
er 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.
•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!
When the player is in use for a long period of time, the surface
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.

On handling the LCD screen
The LCD is manufactured using high precision technology.You may,
however, see tiny black points that continuously appear on the LCD.
This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not
indicate a malfunction.
