This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp
plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as
follows:
• Remove fuse cover and fuse.
• Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or
BSI approved type.
• Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it
should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted 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 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).
As 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 e) 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.Copyright in the U.K.: Recording and playback

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

INSTALLATION
Connections general
Analog connections
For playback on the CD recorder from the CD changer deck the
following outputs are present:
– Digital coaxial output (CD & CD-R)
– Analog output (CD & CD-R)
This connection must be made for playback on the CD
recorder deck as well as the CD changer deck (cable 2).
Cable 1 is only required if you want to make recordings from
an external analog source.
We advise you to connect these to the TAPE or CD-R input on
your amplifier.
RECEIVER/AMPLIFIER
For external recording the following inputs are present:
– Digital optical input
– Digital coaxial input
– Analog input (stereo)

OUT
TAPE/CDR
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).

disturbances).

If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high
quality Analog-Digital-Convertor of your set will ensure very
good audio performance when recordings are made from the
analog input.
CD RECORDER
Playback via the digital coaxial output of the CD recorder
gives the best audio performance.
If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high
quality Digital-Analog-Convertor of the set ensures a very
good sound quality via the analog output.
Use the audio cables supplied. Connect the red plugs to the
R sockets, and the white plugs to the L sockets.
1 For external recording, connect cable 1 between the
ANALOG IN-sockets on the set and the CDR LINE- or TAPE
OUT-sockets of an amplifier.
We advise you to always establish both digital and analog
connections. In this way you can always make analog
recordings when digital recording is not possible.
Note: For recording directly from a CD player or tape deck,
the analog input of the set should be connected to the
analog output of the CD player or tape deck.
We have described the most common ways of connecting the
CD recorder. If you still have difficulties with the connections
you can always contact the Philips Consumer Service desk in
your country.
2 For playback, connect cable 2 between the ANALOG OUT-
sockets on the set and the input sockets of an amplifier e.g.
TAPE IN, CD-R or AUX.
Note: Never use the PHONO input.

Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should
be disposed of properly.
– Place the set on a solid, vibration free surface.
– Make sure there is sufficient space around the set to
prevent overheating.
– Do not place the set near a source of heat or in direct
sunlight.
– Do not use the set under extremely damp conditions.
– If the set is placed in a cabinet, make sure that a 2.5 cm
space remains free on all sides of the CD recorder for
proper ventilation.
– Active mobile phones near to the set may cause
malfunctions.

RECORDING GENERAL
Basic information
Direct Line Recording (DLR)
We will describe:
– Digital recording from internal CDC (fast or normal
recording).
– Recording from external CD player:
– Digital
The CD recorder is equipped with the high-performance Direct
Line Recording technique. It ensures a perfect recording of the
source material, meaning a true “bit for bit” recording. DLR will
always become active, when you make normal recordings in listen
mode.
– Digital (synchronized start with external CD player)
– Analog
– Finalizing discs:
Auto Level Control (ALC)
Finalizing a CDR(W) disc is a simple procedure, necessary to:
– play a recorded CDR on a standard CD player
– play a recorded CDRW on a CDRW compatible CD player
Auto Level Control ensures that the tracks on the recorded disc
have a similar volume level. Always the already recorded tracks of
the CDR(W) disc will be taken as reference for the volume level of
the following recordings. ALC is active, when ALC is shown.
• The recording procedure is the same for CDR and CDRW discs.
Make sure that the CDR(W) is absolutely free of
scratches and dust particles.
Auto level control becomes active, when:
– COMPILE CD is being used,
– a disc, a track or a track edit (A-B) is being high speed
recorded,
• It is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first try.
• If the disc already contains recordings, the CD recorder will
automatically search for the end of the last track, so that
recording can start from there.
– a program from the CD changer is being high speed recorded.
Auto level control will not become active, when:
– CD™CD is being used for an empty CDR(W),
– making recordings from an external source, or
– making normal recordings in listen mode.
• For recordings, the minimum track length is 4 seconds. You can
record up to a maximum of 99 tracks on a disc. The minimum of
recording time left on the disc is 7 seconds. Else, NOT
FITTINGis displayed and you cannot enter into the record
standby mode.
BALANCE key
• When you try to record a copy protected material from an
external source, COPY PROTECTwill be displayed. No
further digital recording is possible then.

In recording mode tracks will be incremented automatically
such that the track numbers are positioned on the same
position as the original.
• Press as often as necessary TRACK INCREMENT on the
remote control during stop when CDR is selected to switch
the automatic track increment function on.
➜ AUTO TR ONis displayed and the function is
switched on. Track increments are now automatically
detected from digital source material. In analog source
material a silence of 2.7 seconds or more is detected as
a track increment.
Recording modes
For external recording you can choose following recording
modes:
– AUX CD - to make an automatic recording of an external
source simply by starting the source.
– AUX TRACK - to make an automatic recording of a single
track from an external source simply by starting the source.
– AUX MANUAL - to start a manual recording from an
external source.
– AUX MIX MIC - to start a mixed recording of microphone
and external source input.
• Press as often as necessary TRACK INCREMENT on the
remote control during stop when CDR is selected to switch
the automatic track increment function off.
➜ AUTO TR OFFis displayed and the function is
switched off. Track numbers can now be incremented
manually by pressing TRACK INCREMENT on the remote
control during recording. The minimum track length is 4
seconds.
– MIC ONLY - manual start of microphone recording.
Notes:
– Track numbers cannot be changed after recording.
– The automatic track increment only works with consumer
sources with a digital output signal according to the IEC
958 (consumer part) audio standard. DAT, DVD and DCC do
not deliver this signal.
