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

electric shock.

• When connecting with car power (cigarette lighter) adaptor, be

sure the input voltage of the adaptor is identical with car voltage.

2.4.6 Zero Bright Dot

TM

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
limited 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 Dot

TM

Policy

to guarantee optimal screen quality.
Warranty service varies from region to region. Contact your local
Philips representative for more detailed information.

Safety and maintenance

• Do not disassemble the unit for laser rays are dangerous to

eyes.
Any service should be done by qualified service personnel.

• 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

potentially hazardous situations.

• 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

guarantees 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
retailer 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!

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 and/or bright points (red, blue,
green) that continuously appear on the LCD. This is a normal result
of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.

to separate into mono materials: cardboard, PS, PE and PET.
