To Load Remote Batteries:
• Open and remove compartment door.
• Place batteries in case as marked.
(Aligned +,- properly).
• Replace and close compartment door.
●If your TV has a video in jack, it should
have a special setting or channel for video
input. Usually these channels are between
the lowest and highest channels and may be
called FRONT, A/V IN, or VIDEO. See
your TV instruction book for more specific
instructions.
●If you only have a single antenna jack on the TV, you
will need an RF modulator to connect the Receiver to your
TV. The RF Modulator converts the Video from the
Receiver so it can play through the TV’s Antenna connec-
tor. When using an RF Modulator, you view DVD play-
back on TV channel 3 or 4 (like a VCR).
See your electronics retailer or contact Philips for details on RF Modulator

tances from the TV. Turn the speakers to an approximate
45 degree angle from the listening position.

• To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the Front
speakers too close to your TV.

from the listening position than the front and center
speakers, it will weaken the Surround effect.
• All speakers should be securely installed to prevent acci-
dents and improve sound quality.
