GENERAL INFORMATION  
Welcome !  
Thank you for buying this Philips Compact Disc Recorder/  
Player Double Deck.  
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 recorder/player, you can make your own  
high-quality audio CDs (subject only to legal restrictions on  
copying), either by recording at normal or high speed from the  
Player to the Recorder, or by recording from an external  
source. And naturally, you can also play all pre-recorded audio  
CDs, using one or both decks individually, or together as a 2-  
deck changer.  
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.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND DISCS  
Discs for recording  
Maintenance  
For recording use, special audio discs must be used (for music  
only). These discs bear one of the logos as shown below. The  
text 'DIGITAL AUDIO' is present!  
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.  
Your recorder can use two types of discs for recording  
purposes:  
- CD-Audio Recordable (CDR) discs:  
fully recorded and finalized, these discs  
play on all CD players and recorders.  
Recordable  
- CD-Audio ReWritable (CDRW) discs:  
can be recorded, erased and re-recorded  
hundreds of times. When finalized, they  
play on CDRW compatible CD players  
and recorders. In the course of 1999 most Philips CD players  
and recorders will be CDRW compatible.  
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.  
ReWritable  
Important:  
Do not expose the CD recorder  
batteries or CDs to humidity, rain,  
sand or excessive heat (caused by  
To ensure proper working of the set, we recommend the use  
of Philips audio CDR and audio CDRW discs only.

Discs for playback  
Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.  
Your CD recorder is able to play:  
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.  
- All pre-recorded audio CDs.  
- All Audio CDR and Audio CDRW.  
Note: CDR(W) discs recorded with a computer can only be  
used when they are correctly treated according the  
audio standard (IEC958: Consumer part). Single session  
only!

Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best  
performance in audio and usability (e.g. auto-track).  
(The digital optical connection is less sensitive to external  
disturbances).  
If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high  
quality Analog-Digital-Converter of your CD recorder will  
ensure good audio performance when recordings are made  
from the analog input.  
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-Converter of the CD recorder ensures a  
good sound quality via the analog output.  
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.

RECORDING  
Remarks about recording  
Recording modes  
You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs.  
Nevertheless, it is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first try.  
The following will be explained:  
Your recorder offers several recording modes.  
For recording from internal CD-deck:  
- Recording from an internal CD player deck: high-speed or  
listen mode.  
- Recording from an external CD player deck: synchronized  
start with CD player or manual start (analog or digital).  
- RECORD FAST (high-speed digital recording) - fast recording  
of a disc or programmed tracks.  
- REC LISTEN (normal-speed digital recording) - listening to a  
recording while making it.  
- MAKE CD (high-speed digital recording and auto-finalize) -  
fast recording of a disc or programmed tracks. Recording  
will be finalized automatically.  
If the disc is a CDRW and is already finalized, you must  
unfinalize it first.  
The recording procedure is the same for CDRs and CDRWs.  
Warning: No more recording possible after finalizing CDR  
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.

CD text cannot be recorded from an external CD player.  
(Text information is not available on the output of the CD  
player.)  
For recording from external sources:  
The CD recorder deck is able to record CD text from the  
internal CD player deck (if not subjected to copy protection).  
This may take up to 2 minutes.  
- REC EXT DISC (automatic start of recording) - to make an  
automatic recording of an external source simply by starting  
the source.  
- REC EXT MAN (manual start of recording) - to start a manual  
recording from an external source.  
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. DOES NOT FITwill then show on the  
display.  
Some remarks on recording:  
If the display indicates COPY PROTECTno digital  
recording can be made of the source material. Recording  
will not start.  
- During high speed recording, the original recording quality  
will be maintained.  
- When Auto track is on (default setting), track numbers will  
automatically be increased during recording.  
- By programming tracks first, a compilation can be recorded.  
- If a finalized CD recordable disc is inserted in the CD  
recorder, FINALIZED CDwill be displayed when REC  
TYPE is pressed. Recording will not be possible.  
- If a finalized CD rewritable disc is inserted in the CD  
recorder, UNFINALIZEand PRESS ENTERwill be  
displayed when the REC TYPE is pressed. If ENTER is  
pressed, the disc will be unfinalized.  
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.  
Recordings from DAT or DCC players will not always stop  
automatically.  
Note: If during recording ANALOG RECappears, the track  
will be recorded as analog, at normal speed. All other  
tracks will be copied normally (at double speed).  
Important:  
If you want to play the recorded CDR disc on a regular  
CD player, it must be finalized. See finalizing discs.  
Finalized CDRW discs play only on CDRW compatible  
CD players.  
For recording from CD changers always use REC EXT  
DISC.
