    Important notes for users in the
    U.K.
    Mains plug
    This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13
    Amp plug.  To change a fuse in this type of plug
    proceed as follows:
    1Remove fuse cover and fuse.
    2Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp,
    A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
    3Refit the fuse cover.
    If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket
    outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate
    plug fitted 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 ear th
    terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or
    coloured green (or green and yellow).
    Before replacing the plug cover, make cer tain
    that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath
    of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

    Italiano -------------------------------------- 186Due to the inconsistency of disc formats provided 
    by various disc manufacturers, your DVD system 
    may require a playability enhancement or upgrade.
    As DVD technology advances, these enhancement
    will become common and will be easy to complete.
    Go to www. p4c.philips.com for software upgarde.  
    En raison de la diversité des formats utilisés par les 
    fabricants, votre système DVD peut nécessiter 
    lajout de périphériques ou une mise à niveau 
    logicielle. Au fur et à mesure des progrès de la 
    technologie DVD, ces périphériques se font de plus 
    en plus courants et aisés à intégrer. Pour 
    télécharger la mise à niveau logicielle, visitez le site 
    www.p4c.philips.com.   
    Debido a los diferentes formatos de discos 
    disponibles en el mercado, es posible que deba 
    realizar mejoras o actualizaciones en el sistema de 
    DVD relativas a las funciones de reproducción. 
    Conforme la tecnología DVD avanza, estas mejoras 
    estarán al alcance de todo tipo de usuarios y se 
    podrán llevar a cabo fácilmente. Visite la página 
    “www.p4c. philips.com” para buscar información 
    sobre actualizaciones de software.   
    Da das Disk-Format je nach Hersteller verschieden 
    ist, ist für Ihr DVD-System möglicherweise die 
    Erweiterung der Spielbarkeit oder eine 
    Aktualisierung erforderlich. Da die 
    DVD-Technologie sich ständig weiterentwickelt, 
    werden sich diese Erweiterungen durchsetzen und 
    einfach auszuführen sein. Gehen Sie zu für Ihre 
    Software-Aktualisierung zu „www.p4c. philips.com“.   
    Doordat fabrikanten verschillende schijfindelingen 
    aanbieden, moet uw dvd-systeem mogelijk worden 
    geüpgradet of uitgebreid. Naarmate de 
    dvd-technologie zich verder ontwikkelt, zullen 
    deze uitbreidingen normaal worden en zult u ze 
    gemakkelijk kunnen uitvoeren. Ga naar 
    www.p4c. philips.com om uw software te 
    upgraden.
    A causa della differenza di formato tra i dischi 
    forniti dai vari produttori, il sistema DVD potrebbe 
    richiedere un potenziamento o aggiornamento 
    della riproducibilità. Col progredire della tecnologia 
    DVD, questi potenziamenti diverranno comuni e 
    facili da implementare. Visitare 
    “www.p4c. philips.com” per scaricare gli 
    aggiornamenti del software.

    Care and safety information
    Avoid high temperatures, moisture,
    water and dust
    – Do not expose the system, batteries
    or discs to humidity, rain, sand or
    excessive heat (caused by heating
    equipment or direct sunlight).  Always
    keep the disc tray closed to avoid getting
    dust on the lens.
    Avoid condensation problem
    – The lens may cloud over when the
    player is suddenly moved from cold to
    warm surroundings, making it impossible
    to play a disc. Leave the player in the
    warm environment until the moisture
    evaporates.
    Do not block the vents
    – Do not operate the DVD system in an
    enclosed cabinet and allow about 10 cm
    (4 inches) of free space all around the
    player for adequate ventilation.

    Care of disc
    – To clean a CD, wipe it in a
    straight line from the centre
    toward the edge using a soft,
    lint-free cloth.  Do not use
    cleaning agent, as they may
    damage the disc.
    – Write only on the printed side of a
    CD-R/CD-RW and only with a soft felt-
    tipped pen.
    – Handle the disc by its edge, do not
    touch the surface.
    Care of the cabinet
    – Use a soft cloth slightly moistened
    with a mild detergent solution. Do not
    use a solution containing alcohol, spirits,
    ammonia or abrasives.
    Finding a suitable location
    – Place the player on a flat, hard, stable
    surface.

    Step 1: Placing the speakers
    and subwoofer
    For best possible surround sound, all the
    speakers (except subwoofer) should be
    placed at the same distance from the
    listening position.
    1Place the front left and right speakers at
    equal distances from the TV and at an
    angle of approximately 45 degrees from
    the listening position.
    2Place the centre speaker above the TV or
    the DVD system so that the centre
    channel’s sound is localised.
    3Place the surround speakers at normal
    listening ear level facing each other or
    hang on the wall.
    4Place the subwoofer on the floor near
    the TV.
    Helpful Hints:
    – To avoid magnetic interference, do not
    position the front speakers too close to your
    TV.
    – Allow adequate ventilation around the
    DVD system.

    matching the colours of the jacks and
    speaker cables.
    For LX3950W wireless system
    connection, please refer to the
    separate ‘Quick Use Guide’.
    The wireless transmitter and receiver
    give you the option for wireless speaker
    connection.
    Helpful Hints:
    – Ensure that the speaker cables are
    correctly connected.  Improper connections
    may damage the system due to short-circuit.
    – To prevent unwanted noise, do not place
