Mains plug
Typeskilt finnes på apparatens
underside.
This apparatus is fitted with an
approved 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug
proceed as follows:
Observer: Nettbryteren er sekundert
innkoplet. Den innebygde netdelen er
derfor ikke frakoplet nettet så lenge
apparatet er tilsluttet nettkontakten.
1
2
Remove fuse cover and fuse.
Fix new fuse which should be a
BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI
approved type.
For å redusere faren for brann eller
elektrisk støt, skal apparatet ikke
utsettes for regn eller fuktighet.
3
Refit 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.

funkentstört ist.
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 ) 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.

Description
Philips Advanced Technologies
Ultra-thin design, powerful 5.1 surround audio!
wOOx
The A 3.600 Acoustic Surround Power / MMS
306 is the result of the ultimate fusion of Philips
acoustical core competencies. We created a 5.1-
channel speaker system that features five ultra-
thin soft flat panel speakers, a variety of mounting
options and an explosive wOOx subwoofer. The
set is the perfect choice for a space-saving hifi
audio solution.
Anchored by a 50 watt subwoofer, the A 3.600
Acoustic Surround Power / MMS 306 system
employs Philips patented wOOx Bass Driver
technology to generate superior bass from a
deceptively small enclosure. The wOOx bass
drivers are composed of a unique dual suspension
design mounted in front of the subwoofer resulting
in a deeper, richer bass performance you would
expect from a larger subwoofer. With the
symmetrical construction of the wOOx Bass
Radiator, there is complete balance of the
membrane movement producing no discernable
distortion. As a result, gaming and movie effects
are more intense and music more enjoyable.
This Soft Flat Panel speaker system is especially
designed to be a hifi multimedia 5.1-channel
speaker system. All together, there can be
connected up to three audio-visual sources at the
same time directly to the speaker system. Three
keys on the remote control are provided to make
your audio device selection:
INPUT 1 à 5.1-channel input
INPUT 2 à stereo input
INPUT 3 à stereo input
Soft Flat Panel Satellite Speakers
NXT* has developed a unique loudspeaker
technology that has redesigned the shape of
sound. Philips has taken a new step in optimizing
the implementation of NXTs* technology by adding
a High Frequency Booster. The High Frequency
Booster boosts the sound pressure at higher
frequencies, thereby enabling the use of a soft
panel material whose sound quality surpasses the
performance of many home audio systems.
This 5.1-channel speaker system will enhance
dramatically your gaming and audio-visual
experience. It delivers the ultimate sound solution
during games and movies by providing thrilling
surround sound with an intense bass impact. For
optimum performance, the set is best used with
5.1-channel audio inputs.
When connecting stereo audio-visual sources to
the set, (INPUT 2 or INPUT 3), built in multi-channel
processing algorithms will indulge you sound from
all speakers around you.

Speaker Placement
(Illustration page 9)
General
·
Placing speakers behind curtains, furniture, or any other
objects will reduce the treble response, thus reducing
the stereo effect significantly.
·
Each room has different acoustic characteristics and
the placement possibilities are often limited. You can
find the best position for your speakers by
experimenting. In general, the speakers should be
placed as symmetrical as possible in the room.
Front Satellite Speakers (figure a)
·
·
·
The front left and right satellite speaker play stereo
music and the off-screen sounds of video playback.
These satellites should be placed to the sides of your
TV or monitor.
Viewed from the listeners position, the satellite speaker
connected to FRL at the subwoofer should be on the
left side, and the satellite speaker connected to FRR at
the subwoofer should be on the right side.
The best stereo effect is obtained when the two front
satellite speakers and the listener form an equilateral
triangle.
·
·
The optimum height for these speakers is when they
are placed at ear height (while seated).
Center Satellite Speaker (figure b)
·
The center satellite speaker provides the on-screen
effects and dialog in Dolby Digital / Dolby Surround.
It should be placed as close to the center of your TV /
monitor as possible (e.g. underneath or on top of your
TV / monitor).
·
·
It should be directed at the listeners ear level while
seated.
Surround Satellite Speakers (figure c)
·
The surround left and right satellite speaker provide
the surround effects in Dolby Digital / Dolby Surround
These satellites may be placed in any convenient sites
alongside the listener, even sites slightly forward the
listeners position.
·
·
·
The surround satellite speakers do not have to be at
exactly the same height as the front satellite speakers.
Viewed from the listeners position, the satellite speaker
connected to SRL at the subwoofer should be on the
left side, and the satellite speaker connected to SRR at
the subwoofer should be on the right side.
·
If you have side walls close to your listening position,
good placement for your surround satellites is slightly
behind your position and slightly above ear level.
Subwoofer (figure d)
·
The subwoofers optimum place is on the floor close to
the wall. The closer it is to the corner, the stronger the
maximum bass output.
·
The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded, so position
it at least 0.5 meter from the TV / monitor.
