Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fi tted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3Refi t the fuse cover.

If the fi tted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fi tted 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.

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).

zAs 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.

Care and Safety Information

CAUTION!

High voltage! Do not open. You run the risk of getting an electric shock.

The machine does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Please leave all maintenance work to qualified personnel.

Setup precautions

Finding a suitable location

Place the set on a flat, hard and stable surface. Do not place the set on a carpet.

Do not position the set on top of other equipment that might heat it up (e.g., receiver or amplifier).

Do not put anything under the set (e.g., CDs, magazines).

Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the AC power plug can be reached easily.

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur (frozen picture, sound disruptions, picture distortions) because the disc inside the unit is dirty.

To avoid these problems, discs should be cleaned on a regular basis.

To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from the center to the edge in a straight line.

CAUTION!

Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static sprays intended for discs.

Space for ventilation

– Place the apparatus in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4”) clearance from the rear and the top of the set and 5cm (2”) from the left and right to prevent overheating.

5cm (2.3")

10cm (4.5")

10cm (4.5")

5cm (2.3")

Avoid high temperatures, moisture, water and dust

Apparatus must not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

Do not place any sources of danger on the apparatus (e.g., liquid filled objects, lighted candles).

Hard Disk Drive (HDD) handling care

The hard disk drive (HDD) has a high storage density that enables long recording duration and high speed data access. Depending on the setup environment and handling, some content may be damaged resulting in failure of playback and recording. To avoid damage to the HDD and losing important data, observe following precautions:

Do not move the recorder or subject it to vibration.

Do not remove the AC power plug from the mains socket without switching the recorder to standby mode.

WARNING!

The HDD is not a device for storing recorded content permanently. We recommend that you copy the important video content to a recordable DVD

disc as backup.

Product Information (continued)

Special features

Philips provides the best possible connection between your recorder and other home cinema equipment. The recorder is controlled by external devices (for example, receivers and TVs) via Cinema Link and is automatically set to the right system settings.

With this function you can align the sequence of the channels on your TV (analogue only) with those on your recorder. Make sure you have connected the TV to the

EXT1 TO TV-I/O socket of this recorder.

This function enables you to record a programme from your Satellite Receiver or any other devices. Make sure that the device is connected to the EXT2 AUX-I/O socket of this recorder, and the timer setting has been done on the connected device.

Direct Record

This function allows you to instantly record the programme (analogue TV channels only) you see on the TV without tuning this recorder to the same programme.

Time Shift Buffer

As soon as you turn on this recorder, the programme showing on the TV will be stored into the ‘Time Shift Buffer’. It acts as a temporary HDD storage of your recordings. The contents will be automatically deleted after 6 (six) hours or when you turn off this recorder. To store the contents on the hard disk permanently, you have to mark the section in the ‘Time Shift Buffer’ for recording to prevent them from being deleted.

Instant Replay

You can repeat a scene of a live TV programme by pressing REPLAY button on the remote control, as often as you like. If you wish to return to the live TV programme, just press TUNER.

FlexTime

You can watch or recall a TV programme while it is still being recorded. You do not have to wait until the end of the recording before starting playback. You can also watch a different programme from the hard disk while it is recording something else.

Pause Live TV

A live TV programme is now under your control. You can pause the programme by pressing PAUSE button and resume playback at the scene it was interrupted by pressing PLAY button. If you want to return to the live TV programme, just press TUNER.

Pixel Plus

Pixel Plus improves the detail, depth and clarity level of video recordings from any source via the digital HDMI connector. The noise reduction and sharpness improvement are applied automatically on the HDMI output on any HDMI TV and Philips’ Pixel Plus TVs.

i.LINK, is also known as ‘FireWire’ and ‘IEEE 1394’. This connection is used for the transfer of high bandwidth digital signals as used by digital video (DV) devices. It carries all audio and video signals via a single cable.

This is a simple programming system for recorders. To use it, enter the programming number associated with your television programme. You can find this number in your favourite listings magazine.

The GUIDE Plus+ system lists your TV channel programming information. You can use it to schedule recordings, glance at upcoming programme content, or change channels at your external receiver/cable box using this recorder’s remote control.
