GENERAL INFORMATION  
Welcome !  
Thank you for buying this Philips Compact Disc Recorder.  
In the eighties Philips invented a new audio system - the CD.  
The CD (compact disc) revealed to you the new dimensions of  
digital sounds and added to the pleasures of audio.  
Compact disc technology permits a high contrast in loud as  
well as in quiet 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 the United Kingdom and certain commonwealth  
countries use of the Philips CD Recordable/Rewritable  
recorder as shown or suggested in this user manual  
may require the authorization 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 the logos as shown below. The text  
‘DIGITAL AUDIO’ is present!  
For recording it is very important to use dust and scratch free  
discs.  
To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight  
line from the center toward 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 uses 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  
hunderds of times. When finalized, they  
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  
play on CDRW compatible CD  
players and recorders. In the course of  
1999 most Philips CD players and recorders will be CDRW  
compatible.  
Important:  
To ensure proper working of the set we recommend the use of  
Philips audio CDR and audio CDRW discs only.  
Do not expose the CD recorder,  
batteries or CDs to humidity, rain,  
sand or excessive heat (caused by

For recording the following inputs are present:  
- Digital optical input.  
- Digital coaxial input.  
Analog connection is required for playback of CDs (use cable  
2) and for recording from external analog sources  
(use cable 1).  
- Analog input.  
For playback the following outputs are present:  
- Digital coaxial output.  
- Analog output.  
We advise you to connect these to the CD input on your

(The digital optical connection is less sensitive to external  
disturbances).  
If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high  
quality Analog-Digital-Convertor of your CD recorder will  
ensure very good audio performance when recordings are  
made from the analog input.  
Use the audio cables supplied. Connect the red plugs to the  
R sockets, and the white plugs to the L sockets.  
1 For recording, connect cable 1 between the ANALOG IN-  
sockets on the CD recorder and the CDR LINE- or TAPE OUT-  
sockets of an amplifier.  
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 CD recorder ensures a  
very good sound quality via the analog output.  
Note: For recording directly from a CD player, the analog  
input of the CD recorder should be connected to the  
analog output of the CD player.  
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.  
2 For playback, connect cable 2 between the ANALOG OUT-  
sockets on the CD recorder and the input sockets of an  
amplifier e.g. TAPE IN, CDR or AUX.  
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.  
Note: Never use the PHONO input.

Note: Your CD recorder is equipped with a digital coaxial  
output. This output can be used for digital playback.  
1 Remove the dust caps from the digital optical connection.  
(We recommend you save the cap).  
2 For recording, connect a fibre-optic cable 4 between the  
digital optical input of the CD recorder and the digital-  
optical output of a CD player.  
Note: For playback, the digital coaxial output or analog output  
should be connected to an amplifier.

INSTALLATION  
Power supply  
Inserting batteries in the remote control  
1 Plug the power cord supplied into the MAINS connector on  
the CD recorder, then into a mains socket.  
2 Press ON/OFF.  
The CD recorder will switch on.  
1 Open the battery compartment cover.  
Note:  
2 Insert 2 batteries (“AA”, LR-6 or UM-3; as supplied) as  
shown.  
- If the CD recorder is in Standby mode (red led on), press any  
key to activate the recorder.  
- The CD recorder will automatically adjust to the local mains  
voltage.  
- When the CD recorder is in the ‘OFF’ position, it is still  
consuming some power. If you wish to disconnect your  
player completely from the mains, withdraw the plug from  
the AC outlet.  
3 Replace the cover.  
Note: We recommend you use 2 batteries of the same type  
and condition.  
Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should  
be disposed of properly.  
Setup 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  
2.5 cm space remains free on all sides of the CD recorder  
for proper ventilation.  
Important:  
- Do not put the CD recorder on top of other equipement that  
heats up the CD recorder (e.g. receiver or amplifier).

RECORDING  
Remarks about recording  
Recording modes  
You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs.  
Your recorder offers several recording modes.  
Nevertheless, it is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first  
try.  
- RECORD DISC - to make a synchronized recording of the  
complete disc or a program simply by starting the source.  
- RECORD TRACK - to make a synchronized recording of a  
single track simply by starting the source.  
• If the disc is a CDRW and is already finalized you must  
unfinalize it first.  
- 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.)  
• The recording procedure is the same for CDRs and  
CDRWs.  
• 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.

- When Auto track is ON (default setting), track numbers will  
automatically be increased during recording.  
- By programming the source first, a compilation can be  
recorded.  
• There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left on

• 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 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.  
Important:  
If you want to play the recorded CDR disc on any  
regular CD player, it must first be finalized. See
