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.

Environmental information

All redundant packing material has been omitted.We ha ve
done our utmost to make the packaging easily separable into
three mono materials: cardboard (box),polystrene foam
(buffer) and polyeth ylene (bags,protective foam sheet).

Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if
disassembled by a specialized company.Please observe the
local regulations regarding the disposal of packing materials,
exhausted batteries and old equipment.

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.
