Welcome !

Thank you for buying this Philips Compact Disc Recorder.

In the 1980s Philips invented a new audio system - the CD. The CD (compact disc) revealed the new dimensions of digital sound and added to the pleasure of audio.

Compact-disc technology permits a high contrast in both loud and soft passages,with perfect channel separation.

Philips has now further developed compact disc technology and the result is the CD recorder.

With your Philips CD Recordable/ReWritable Recorder, you can record,play and erase your own high-quality audio CDs,subject to legal restrictions on copying. Naturally, you will also be able to play all pre-recorded audio CDs.

Note:In certain countries, including the UK and certain Commonwealth countries, use of the product (or CD Recorder) as shown or suggested in this user manual may require the permission of copyright holders.

Discs for recording

For recording,make sure to use special audio discs only. These discs are marked with “Digital Audio”and the logos shown below.

There are two different types of audio discs for the use on this CD recorder:

– CD-Audio Recordable (CDR) discs

These discs can be recorded on once and play in all standard CD players and CD recorders, when they are ﬁnalized.

– CD-Audio ReWritable (CDRW) discs

These discs can be recorded on,erased and re-recorded many times and play in CDRW compatible CD players and CD recorders, when they are ﬁnalized.

– All Philips CD players and CD recorders

with the sticker shown here are CDRW compatible.

To ensure proper working of the set we recommend the use of Philips audio CDR and audio CDRW discs only.

Note:Do not use a computer CDR or CDRW as recording will not work!

Recording is permissible insofar as copyright or other rights of third parties are not infringed upon.

In certain countries including the UK and certain Commonwealth countries, use of the product as shown or suggested in this user manual may require the permission of copyright holders.

Discs for playback

Your CD recorder is able to play:

- All pre-recorded audio CDs.

- All Audio CDR and Audio CDRW .

Note:CDR(W) discs containing audio recorded with a computer can only be played when they are correctly treated according the audio standard (IEC958:Consumer part). Single session only!

Maintenance

For recording,it is very important to use discs that are free of dust and scratches.

To clean a CD,wipe it in a straight line from the center towards the edge using a soft,lint-free cloth.A cleaning agent may damage the disc! Write only on the printed side of a CDR or CDRW, and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.

Clean the CD recorder with a soft,slightly dampened lint-free cloth.Do not use any cleaning agents as they may have a corrosive effect.

Do not expose the CD recorder batteries or CDs to humidity,rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

The lens may cloud over when the CD recorder is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings,making it impossible to play a CD. Leave the CD recorder in the warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

- 2 Analog audio cables (with red and white plugs)
