Frequently Asked Questions - CED1900BT PHILIPS

How do I reset the Philips CED1900BT if it freezes?
Flip up the protective cover on the front panel and press the RESET button with a ballpoint pen or toothpick. This will restart the system without losing presets.
Why is there no power to the car radio?
Check that the car engine is running (or ignition is on). Verify the fuse (15 A) on the rear panel; replace if blown. Ensure the yellow (constant +12V) and red (switched +12V) wires are correctly connected.
How do I pair my phone via Bluetooth?
From the home menu, tap Bluetooth. Ensure your phone's Bluetooth is on and visible. Tap Search on the unit, select your phone from the list, and confirm pairing with password 0000. Enable connection on your phone.
Why won't the disc play?
Ensure the disc is inserted with the label side up and is not dirty or scratched. Check that the disc format is supported (DVD, CD, MP3). For recordable discs, they must be finalized. Also verify the DVD region code is compatible.
How do I install the GPS antenna?
Connect the GPS antenna to the GPS AERIAL socket on the rear panel. Affix the metal sheet (supplied) to the dashboard or back of rear-view mirror, then attach the antenna box to it. Secure the cable with clamps.
Can I play DivX videos from a USB drive?
Yes, but DivX DRM-protected files must be on a disc, not USB or SD. For normal DivX files, transfer them to a USB or SD card formatted as FAT16/FAT32. The subtitle file (.srt or .sub) must have the same name as the video and be in the same folder.
How do I set up the rear view camera?
Connect the camera's video output to the CAMERA IN (purple) socket and the reverse wire to REVERSE CAMERA (purple wire). After installation, tap the camera icon on the home menu (only appears when camera is detected) to view the image.
Why is the volume too low?
Press the + button on the front panel or remote to increase volume. Check that the mute function is off (press ). Also verify that the balance/fader settings are centered and that the speakers are properly connected.
How do I update the firmware?
Go to www.philips.com/support and log in with your Club Philips account. Find your product (CED1900BT/51), download the firmware upgrade file, and follow the instructions in the Readme. Do not interrupt power during upgrade.
