viewing.
To avoid discomfort such as dizziness, headache
or disorientation, we recommend not watching

experience any discomfort, stop watching
3D and do not immediately engage in any
potentially hazardous activity (for example
driving a car) until your symptoms have
disappeared. If symptoms persist, do not resume
watching 3D without consulting a medical
professional rst.
Parents should monitor their children during
3D viewing and ensure they do not experience
any discomfort as mentioned above. Watching
3D is not recommended for children under six

This section helps you connect your home
theater to a TV and other devices, and then set
it up.
For information about the basic connections
of your home theater and accessories, see the
quick start guide.
Note
For identication and supply ratings, see the type plate
at the back or bottom of the product.
Before you make or change any connections, make sure
that all devices are disconnected from the power outlet.
Connect speakers
The speaker cables are color-coded for easy
connection. To connect a speaker to your home
theater, match the color on the speaker cable to
the color on the connector.
Speaker position plays a critical role in setting
up a surround sound effect. For best effect,
position all the speakers towards the seating
position and place them close to your ear level
(seated).
Note
Surround sound depends on factors such as room
shape and size, type of wall and ceiling, windows and
reective surfaces, and speaker acoustics. Experiment
with the speaker positions to nd the optimum setting
for you.
Follow these general guidelines for speakers
placement.
1 Seating position:
This is the center of your listening area.
2 FRONT CENTER (front center) speaker:
Place the center speaker directly in front of
the seating position, either above or below
your TV.
3 FRONT LEFT (front left) and FRONT
RIGHT (front right) speakers:
Place the left and right speakers in the
front, and at equal distance from the center
speaker. Make sure that the left, right, and

Connect to TV
Connect your home theater to a TV to watch
videos. You can listen to the TV audio through
your home theater speakers.
Use the best quality connection available on
your home theater and TV.
Option 1: Connect to TV through
HDMI (ARC)
Best quality video

your home theater to the HDMI ARC
connector on the TV.
The HDMI ARC connector on the TV
might be labeled differently. For details,
see the TV user manual.
2 On your TV, turn on HDMI-CEC
operations. For details, see the TV user
manual.

ONE (1) YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
WARRANTY COVERAGE:
This warranty obligation is limited to the terms set forth
below.
WHO IS COVERED:
This product is warranted to the original purchaser or the per-
son receiving the product as a gift against defects in materials and
workmanship as based on the date of original purchase
(“Warranty Period”) from an Authorized Dealer. The original
sales receipt showing the product name and the purchase date
from an authorized retailer is considered such proof.
WHAT IS COVERED:
This warranty covers new products if a defect in material
or workmanship occurs and a valid claim is received within
the Warranty Period. At its option, the company will either (1)
repair the product at no charge, using new or refurbished
replacement parts, or (2) exchange the product with a product
that is new or which has been manufactured from new, or ser-
viceable used parts and is at least functionally equivalent or most
comparable to the original product in current inventory,
or (3) refund the original purchase price of the product.
The company warrants replacement products or parts provided
under this warranty against defects in materials and workmanship
from the date of the replacement or repair for ninety (90) days
or for the remaining portion of the original product’s warranty,
whichever provides longer coverage for you. When a product or
part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes your property
and the replaced item becomes the company property. When a
refund is given, your product becomes the company property.
Note: Any product sold and identified as refurbished or
renewed carries a ninety (90) day limited warranty.
Replacement product can only be sent if all warranty
requirements are met. Failure to follow all requirements
can result in delay.

with the product. Non-Philips manufacturers, suppliers, or
publishers may provide a separate warranty for their own
products packaged with the bundled product.
The company is not liable for any damage to or loss of any ,
programs data, or other information stored on any media
contained within the product, or any non-Philips product or part
not covered by this warranty. Recovery or reinstallation of
programs, data or other information is not covered under this
Limited Warranty.
This warranty does not apply (a) to damage caused by accident,
abuse, misuse, neglect, misapplication, or non-Philips product, (b)
to damage caused by service performed by anyone other than
an Authorized Service Location, (c) to a product or
a part that has been modified without written permission,
or (d) if any serial number has been removed or defaced,

without warranty of any kind by including refurbished Philips
product sold “AS IS” by some retailers.
This Limited Warranty does not cover:
Shipping charges to return defective product.
Labor charges for installation or setup of the product, adjust-
ment of customer controls on the product, and installation or
repair of antenna/signal source systems outside of the product.
Product repair and/or part replacement because of improper
installation or maintenance, connections to improper voltage
supply, power line surge, lightning damage, retained images or
screen markings resulting from viewing fixed stationary con-
tent for extended periods, product cosmetic appearance items
due to normal wear and tear, unauthorized repair or other
cause not within the control of the company.
Damage or claims for products not being available for use, or
for lost data or lost software.

returning product.
A product that requires modification or adaptation to enable

it was designed, manufactured, approved and/or authorized, or
