Important notes for users in the
U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is tted with an approved 13
Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of
plug proceed as follows:
1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362
5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3 Re t the fuse cover.
If the tted plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate
plug tted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse
is used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 5 Amp.
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to
avoid a possible shock hazard should it be
inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with
the following code: blue = neutral (N),
brown = live (L).
As these colours may not correspond with the
colour markings identifying the terminals in
your plug, proceed as follows:
– Connect the blue wire to the terminal
marked N or coloured black.
– Connect the brown wire to the terminal
marked L or coloured red.
– Do not connect either wire to the earth
terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or
coloured green (or green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain
that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath
of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

Basic Connections
Step 1: Placing the speakers
The Philips Home Theatre System is
simple to install. However, proper system
placement is critical to ensure an
optimum sound experience.
A Place the front left and right speakers at
equal distances from the TV and at an
angle of approximately 45 degrees from
the listening position.
B Place the centre speaker above the TV or
the main unit such that the centre
channel’s sound is localised.
C Place the rear speakers at normal
listening ear level facing each other.
D Place the subwoofer at the corner of the
room. Otherwise, keep it at least one
metre away from the TV.
Helpful Hints:
– The placement diagram shown here is
only a guideline that provides great system
performance. You may nd other placement
choices that are more suitable for your room
layout that provide the sound experience you
enjoy.
– To avoid magnetic interference, never
position the front speakers too close to your
TV.
– The rear speakers are labelled as REAR
LEFT or REAR RIGHT.
– The front speakers are labelled as
FRONT LEFT or FRONT RIGHT.
– For speaker setting, see ‘Getting Started -
Setting the speakers’ channels’.

Step 2: Connecting to TV
This connection enables you to view the
video playback from this unit. You only
need to choose one of the options
below to make the video connection.
– For a standard TV, follow option 1, 2
or 3.
– For a progressive scan TV, follow
option 4.
– For a HDMI TV, follow option 5.
Helpful Hint:
– It is important to connect this unit directly
to the TV in order to enjoy optimum video
quality.
– To hear the TV audio through this unit,
connect AUDIO IN-AUX sockets on the unit
to the audio output on your TV (cables not
supplied). Then press AUX (MP3 LINK)
until ‘AUX’ is displayed on the front panel.
Option 1: Connecting to the Scart
socket
Connect the scart cable (supplied) from
the SCART TO TV socket on the main
unit to the corresponding SCART input
socket on the TV.
Helpful Hint:
– With this connection, audio connection is
not required, you can press AUX (MP3
LINK) repeatedly on the remote control to
select SCART IN to route the TV’s audio to
the speakers.

socket
Use a composite video cable (yellow -
not supplied) to connect the CVBS
socket on the main unit to the video
input socket (or labeled as A/V In, Video
In, Composite or Baseband) on the TV.
It provides good picture quality.
Option 3: Connecting to the

Option 4: Connecting to a
Progressive Scan TV or component
video input
The progressive scan video quality is
only available when using Y Pb Pr
connection and a progressive scan TV is
required. It provides superior picture
quality when watching DVD movies.
A Use the component video cables (red/
blue/green - not supplied) to connect the
Y Pb Pr sockets on the main unit to the
corresponding component video input
sockets (or labeled as Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr or
YUV) on the TV.
It provides better picture quality.
B If your TV accepts progressive signals,
proceed to chapter ‘Getting Started -
Setting up Progressive Scan feature’ for
detailed progressive feature setup.
Option 5: Connecting to a HDMI-
compatible TV
HDMI (High De nition Multimedia
Interface) is a digital interface that allows
pure digital video transmission without
the loss of image quality.
It provides best picture quality.
Use the HDMI cable (not supplied) to
connect the HDMI OUT on the main
unit to the HDMI IN on a HDMI-
compatible device (e.g., HDMI TV, HDCP
compliant DVI TV.)
It provides best picture quality.
Note:
This unit is HDMI CEC compatible. It
enables connected devices to control
each other over HDMI, see ‘Setup Menu
Options - { Video Setup > HDMI Setup >
EasyLink }’ for details.
Helpful Hints:
– The HDMI is backward compatible with
some DVI devices using an appropriate
adaptor plug.
– If a DVI device is connected, an additional
audio cable is required for audio transmission.

Glossary
Analogue audio: Sound that has not been
turned into numbers. Analogue sound is
available if you use the AUDIO LEFT/RIGHT.
These red and white sockets send audio
through two channels, the left and right.
Aspect ratio: Aspect ratio refers to the
length to height ratio of TV screens. The
ratio of a standard TV is 4:3, while the ratio
of a high-de nition or wide TV is 16:9. The
letter box allows you to enjoy a picture with
a wider perspective on a standard 4:3 screen.
AUDIO IN sockets: Red and white
sockets on the back of the unit that receive
audio from another system (TV, Stereo,
etc.).
Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold
a given length of music; measured in kilobits
per second, or kbps. Or, the speed at which
you record. Generally, the higher the bit
rate, or the higher the recording speed, the
better the sound quality. However, higher bit
rates use more space on a disc.
Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music
piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles.
A title is composed of several chapters. Each
chapter is assigned a chapter number
enabling you to locate the chapter you want.
Composite video (CVBS): A single video
signal commonly used in most consumer
video products.
Disc menu: A screen display prepared for
allowing a selection of images, sounds,
subtitles, multi-angles, etc., recorded on a
DVD.
DivX
®
: The DivX
®
code is a patent-pending,
MPEG-4 based video compression
technology, developed by DivX
®
Networks,
Inc., that can shrink digital video to sizes
small enough to be transported over the
internet, while maintaining high visual quality.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system
developed by Dolby Laboratories containing
up to six channels of digital audio (front left
and right, surround left and right, centre and
subwoofer).
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II: It is an
improved matrix decoding technology that
provides better spatiality and directionality
on Dolby Surround programme material,
provides a convincing three dimensional
sound eld on conventional stereo music
recordings and is ideally suited to bring the
surround experience to automotive sound.
While conventional surround programming
is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro
Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to
be encoded speci cally to take full advantage
of Pro Logic II playback, including separate
left and right surround channels. (Such
material is also compatible with conventional
Pro Logic decoders).
DTS: Digital Theatre Systems. This is a
surround sound system, but it is different
from the Dolby Digital. The formats were
developed by different companies.
HDMI: High-De nition Multimedia Interface
(HDMI) is a high-speed digital interface that
can transmit uncompressed high de nition
video and digital multichannel audio. It
delivers perfect picture and sound quality,
completely free from noise. HDMI is fully
backward-compatible with DVI.
As required by the HDMI standard,
connecting to HDMI or DVI products
without HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection) will result in no Video
or Audio output.

between different devices (to prevent
unauthorised copyright).
JPEG: A very common digital still picture

system proposed by the Joint Photographic
Expert Group, which features small decrease
in image quality in spite of its high
compression ratio. Files are recognised by
their le extension ‘JPG or JPEG’.
MP3: A le format with a sound data
compression system. ‘MP3’ is the
abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts
