Philips az1108 Manuel D’Utilisation

PRECAUTIONS & GENERAL MAINTENANCE 
(see 8 / 9)

– Place the set on a hard, flat surface so that it does

not tilt.

– Do not expose the set, CDs, batteries or cassettes to

humidity, rain, sand, direct sunlight or other places
where high temperatures can occur, such as in the
vicinity of heating apparatus or in motor cars parked
in the sun.

– Do not cover the set. The amplifier produces heat

which must dissipate freely, so make sure that there
is sufficient ventilation around the set. A minimum
gap of 15 cm is necessary.

– The mechanical parts of the CD player and the

cassette deck contain self-lubricating bearings and
must not be oiled or lubricated.

– A chamois leather slightly moistened with water is

sufficient for cleaning the housing. Do not use
cleaning agents containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia
or abrasives as these may harm the housing.

– The lens of the CD player should never be touched.
– The lens may cloud over if the CD player is moved

from cold to warm surroundings. The CD player will
not start. Give the player some time to acclimatise.

– To take a CD out of its box, press the center spindle

while lifting the CD. Always pick up the CD by the
edge and replace the CD back in its box after use to
avoid scratching and dust.

– To clean the CD, wipe in a straight line from the

center towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth.
Do not use cleaning agents as they may damage the
disc.

– Never write on a CD or attach stickers to it.

RECORDER MAINTENANCE  (see 0)

To ensure a good recording and playback quality, clean
the indicated parts 

A

,B and C after every 50 hours

of operation or, on average, once a month. Use a cotton
bud slightly moistened with alcohol or a special head
cleaning fluid.

BATTERIES (see 1)

Whenever convenient, use the power supply if you want
to conserve battery life. Make sure you remove the
power plug from the set and wall outlet before inserting
batteries.

1. Open the battery compartment and insert as shown

eight batteries, type R14, or C-cells.

2. Replace the compartment door, making sure the

batteries are firmly and correctly in place.

3. Remove the batteries if exhausted or if they will not

be used again for a long period.

– The incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte

leakage and will corrode the compartment or cause
the batteries to burst. Therefore:
– Do not mix battery types, e.g. alkaline with zinc

carbonate.

– When inserting new batteries, replace all

batteries at the same time.

– Remove the batteries if the set is not be used for

a long time.

Note: The battery supply is switched off when the set
is connected to the power.

plate (on the bottom of the set) corresponds to your
local power voltage. If it does not, consult your
dealer or service organisation.

the wall outlet.
– The set is now ready to use.

to battery supply, or to protect the set during
heavy thunderstorms.
