Introduction
Record your own DVDs and enjoy the digital surround
sound and some of the best features of home cinema
technology with your DVD recorder system.
This set complies with the radio interference
requirements of the European Community.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure or other unsafe operation.
Supplied Accessories
Your DVD recorder system is delivered with
– 2 front, 1 centre and 2 rear speakers
– 2 subwoofers integrated in the speaker stands
– 7 speaker cables
– 1 SCART cable
– 1 cinch audio cable
– 1 TV antenna cable
– 1 FM antenna cable
– 1 MW loop antenna
– 1 AC power cable
– 1 remote control with 2 AA batteries
– 1 blank Philips DVD+RW disc
Setup
Place the set on a flat, hard and stable surface.
Do not position the set on top of other equipment that
might heat it up (e.g. receiver or amplifier).
Allow at least 10 cm clearance from the rear and the
top of the set and 5 cm from the left and right to prevent
overheating.
Do not block the ventilation openings.
Do not expose the set to dripping or splashing.
Do not place any sources of danger (e. g.lighted candles,
objects filled with liquid) on the set.
Active mobile phones near the set may cause malfunctions.
Maintenance
Clean the set 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 set, batteries
or discs to humidity, rain, sand or
excessive heat (caused by heating
equipment or direct sunlight).
Always keep the tray of your DVD recorder system closed
to protect the lens from dust. Do not use any commonly
available lens cleaning discs, as they may damage the optical
unit of the set.
The lens may cloud over when the set is moved from cold
to warm surroundings. Playing or recording a disc is not
possible then. Leave the set in a warm environment until
the moisture evaporates.
Disc handling
DVD+Rs and DVD+RWs are very
delicate. Please take special care
when handling the discs.To take a
disc out of its box easily, press the
centre spindle while lifting it.After
use, always take the disc out of the
DVD recorder system and store it in the disc case.
Never attach a sticker to a disc. If you want to provide a
disc with an inscription use a soft felt-tipped pen and write
only on the printed side.
To clean a disc, wipe it in a straight
line from the centre towards the
edge using a soft, lint-free cloth.
Any cleaning agents may damage
the disc!

Connecting the tuner antennas
MW antenna
● Assemble the supplied MW loop antenna as shown below
and connect it to RADIO MW.
Notes:
After finishing the hookup and the initial setup, move the
MW antenna in various directions to achieve best reception.
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the TV,VCR
or other electronic appliances.
For better reception connect an outdoor antenna or a cable
TV system.
The supplied antenna is for indoor use only.
FM antenna
● Connect the FM antenna socket of an outdoor FM antenna
or that of your cable TV system to RADIO FM on the DVD
recorder system with the supplied FM antenna cable.
Connecting the TV antenna
1 Disconnect the antenna cable from the TV´s antenna input
and connect it to TV ANTENNA IN on the DVD recorder
system.
2 Connect TV ANTENNA TV OUT on the DVD recorder
system to the TV´s antenna input with the supplied antenna
cable.
If you connect an appliance or change its connection after
the initial installation, you need to “install” it on the DVD
recorder system, i. e. you have to tell the DVD recorder
system to which socket the appliance is connected.
Otherwise the appliance will not be available on the DVD
recorder system. Please see “When adding appliances or
changing the connections of appliances”.This is not
necessary for appliances connected to CAM 1 and CAM 2.
Connecting the TV
Consult the user´s manuals of your TV on which SCART
sockets are available and how to connect them to other
video appliances.
If several SCART sockets are available on your TV, select
one that is suited for RGB input to achieve the best picture
quality.
If your Philips TV supports EasyLink, please select the
SCART socket number 2 on the TV (EXT2, EXTERNAL 2
or similar) which supports EasyLink.
Connect the TV directly to the DVD recorder system
without a VCR or any other appliance in between.
Otherwise, not all functions of the DVD recorder system
may be available.
1 Connect the SCART socket of the TV
(EUROCONNECTOR, EURO-AV or similar) to
EXT 1TOTV I/O on the DVD recorder system with the
supplied SCART cable.
2 If you have a digital TV with a digital audio output, connect
either
– its digital coaxial output to DIGITAL IN on the DVD
recorder system with a digital cinch cable or
– its digital optical output to OPTICAL IN on the DVD
recorder system with a digital optical cable.

Connecting additional video
appliances
You can connect several video appliances with a SCART
socket to EXT2 AUX I/O by connecting them in a “chain”:
In the illustration below, a satellite receiver is connected to
a VCR and the VCR to the DVD recorder system.
Please keep in mind that the appliance closest to the
DVD recorder system will provide the input signal if several
appliances in the chain are switched on.Therefore: When
selecting a video appliance connected to EXT2 AUX I/O,
make sure that all other appliances connected to
EXT2 AUX I/O are switched off or to standby.
Consult the user´s manuals of the video appliances you
wish to connect on which SCART sockets are available and
how to connect them to other video appliances.
1 Connect the SCART socket of a video appliance to
EXT2 AUX I/O on the DVD recorder system with a
SCART cable. If the appliance has several SCART sockets,
use the one labelled TO TV or similar.
Note: Use RGB capable SCART cables only.Some other SCART
cables are only partially wired, resulting in a moderate picture
quality and less functionality of the SCART connection.
2 Connect another video appliance to the free SCART
socket on the video appliance which is already connected
to the DVD recorder system.
3 If a digital video appliance (e. g. satellite receiver or game
console) supports digital surround sound, connect either
– the digital coaxial output of the appliance to DIGITAL IN
on the DVD recorder system with a digital cinch cable,
– the digital optical output of the appliance to
OPTICAL IN on the DVD recorder system with a digital
optical cable.
Connecting additional audio
appliances
Please consult the user´s manual of your audio appliances
on which connections are possible.
Analogue connections
1 Connect the left and right analogue output sockets of
your tape deck, CD player or similar to LINE IN 1 L/R or
LINE IN 2 L/R on the DVD recorder system with an
audio cinch cable.
Note:You cannot connect a turntable to LINE IN 1 or 2.
2 Connect the left and right analogue input sockets of a
tape deck or similar recording appliance to LINE OUT L/R
on the DVD recorder system with an audio cinch cable.
Digital connections
1 Connect either
– the digital coaxial output socket of your CD recorder,
CD player or similar to DIGITAL INon the DVD
recorder system with a digital cinch cable or
– the digital optical output socket of your CD recorder,
CD player or CD changer to OPTICAL IN on the DVD
recorder system with a digital optical cable.
2 Connect the digital coaxial input socket of your CD recorder
or similar digital recording appliance to DIGITAL OUT on
the DVD recorder system with a digital cinch cable.
Note: DIGITAL OUT provides digital 2-channel stereo sound.
The DVD recorder system converts digital multichannel sound
into 2-channel stereo sound without loss of relevant sound
information.

Connecting a camcorder to
CAM 1 or CAM 2
You can connect 2 camcorders to the connections CAM 1
and CAM 2.The picture quality depends on the type of
connection between the camcorder and the DVD recorder
system:
– good quality: Composite Video (Video CVBS)
– better quality: S-Video
– best quality: i.Link (IEEE 1394, Fire Wire)
Select the best connection available. Only one video
connection between the DVD recorder system and the
camcorder is needed.
1 Open the flap on the front of the DVD recorder system.
2 Connect the camcorder to CAM 1 or CAM 2 following the
instructions in the user´s manual of your camcorder.
Note: If the camcorder connected to CAM 1 has mono
sound only, connect the audio output of the camcorder to
CAM 1 AUDIO RIGHT on the DVD recorder system.

socket.
To avoid overheating of the set a safety circuit has
been built in.Therefore your set may disconnect
under extreme conditions. If this happens,switch the
set off and let it cool down before reusing it.
When you connect the DVD recorder system to the mains
supply for the first time, you need to perform some basic
settings. See “Initial installation”.
