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 have done our utmost to make the packaging easily separable into three mono materials: cardboard (box), polystrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (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.

As an ENERGY STAR® partner,

Philips has determined that this product meets the ENERGY

STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

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.

Recordable

– 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.

ReWritable

– 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).

SAMPLE RATE CONVERTER 12-56kHz

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)

- 1 Digital coaxial cable (with black plugs)

ANALOG). For recording from a record player both recorder and record player should be connected to an amplifier/receiver

3 ANALOG OUT connects to the line (analog) input of an amplifier/receiver, so you can listen to playback of this set via the amplifier/receiver

4 DIGITAL IN connects to the digital coaxial output of an external digital source (CD player, DVD, DAT, etc.), so you can record from this source (

DIGITAL 1)

5 DIGITAL OUT connects to the digital coaxial input of an amplifier/receiver, so you can listen to playback of this set via the amplifier/receiver

Set up recommendations

- Place the CD recorder on a solid, vibration-free surface.

- Do not place the CD recorder near a source of heat or in direct sunlight.

- Do not use the CD recorder under extremely damp conditions.

- If the CD recorder is placed in a cabinet, make sure that a one-inch space remains free on all sides of the CD recorder/player for proper ventilation.

Important: Do not position the CD recorder on top of other equipment that might heat it up

(e.g. receiver or amplifier).

Connections general

For recording the following inputs are present:

- Digital optical input (OPTICAL IN)

- Digital coaxial input (DIGITAL IN)

- Analog input (ANALOG IN)

For playback the following outputs are present:

- Digital coaxial output (DIGITAL OUT)

- Analog output (ANALOG OUT)

The connections you make will depend upon the possibilities your audio equipment offers. Please refer to the user manuals for your other audio equipment first.

Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best performance in audio and usability (e.g. auto-track increment).

We advise you to always establish both digital and analog connections.This will mean that analog recordings can always be made when digital recording is not possible.

We have described the most common ways of connecting the CD recorder. If you still have difficulties with the connections, please contact the Philips Consumer Service desk in your area.

Introduction

You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own

CDs.

Your recorder offers several recording modes.

RECORD DISC

- to make a synchronized recording of the complete disc or a program simply by starting the source.

RECORD TRACK

- to make an synchronized recording of a single track simply by starting the source.

REC(ord) MANUAL

- to manually start a recording simply by pressing the

RECORD key.

MAKE CD

- to make a synchronized recording of the complete disc or a program simply by starting the source. Finalizing will be done automatically (active for digital recordings).

For each recording purpose the most appropriate recording mode is explained. Basically a recording session consists of three steps:

- preparing (make all settings for your recording),

- recording (the actual recording starts) and

- finalizing your recording (making CDR(W) suitable for playback on a standard cd-player).

Some remarks on recording

It is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first try.

If the disc is a CDR disc and is already finalized, no recording is possible.

If the disc is a CDRW disc and is already finalized, you must unfinalize it first.

The recording procedure is the same for CDRs and

CDRWs.

CD text cannot be recorded from an external CD player.

(Text information is not available on the output of the CD player.)

There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left on the disc, otherwise you will not be able to enter record standby mode.

DISC FULL will then show on the display.

If the display indicates

COPY PROTECT no digital recording can be made of the source material. Recording will not start.

The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) only allows digital recording under specific conditions:

- This means that it is not possible to make a digital copy from a digital copy.

- Analog recording is always possible!

- The number of recordings to be made from the original is unlimited.

A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc.

Minimum allowable track length is 4 seconds.

Important: Use only discs with CDR AUDIO only or

CDRW AUDIO only logo. Discs for use in a personal computer’s CD-(re)writer cannot be used in an Audio

CD-recorder.

If you want to play the recorded CDR disc on a regular CD player, it must be finalized.

Finalizing is a simple procedure, necessary to:

- be able to play recordings on a CD PLAYER,

- avoid further unwanted recordings on a disc,

- avoid erasure of tracks on a CDRW,

- write CD text on a CDR(W).

Finalized CDRW discs play only on CDRW compatible CD players.

Adjusting the recording level

Recording

Recording an entire CD

Some analog sources have such high output levels, that you may need to adjust the recording level to ensure good quality recordings without distortion.

6

Press STOP 9 on the CD recorder and on the source.

➜

The adjusted recording level is stored in the memory of your recorder (also when powered off!).

Note:The recording level can also be adjusted for digital or optical recordings after selecting the
