General inform ation
Welcom e!
About this m anual
Thank you for buying this Philips Compact Disc Recorder.
This manual gives instructions for operating this
CD recorder.
Please note:
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.
- the digits (1) throughout the text indicate a sequence of
actions necessary to perform a certain operation;
Compact-disc technology permits a high contrast in both
loud and soft passages, with perfect channel separation.
- the arrows (➜) indicate the reaction from the recorder;
- the dots (0) indicate remarks, advice or special options
within a sequence of actions.The dot-marked instructions
are not necessary for operation.
Philips has now further developed compact disc technology
and the result is the CD recorder.
All instructions in this manual are based on control via the
keys on the set. If there are corresponding keys available on
the remote control they can be used as well.
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)

Discs for recording
Maintenance
For recording, make sure to use special audio discs only.
These discs are marked with “Digital Audio” and the logos
shown below.
For recording, it is very important to use discs that are free
of dust and scratches.
There are two different types of audio discs for the use on
this CD recorder:
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.
– CD-Audio Recordable (CDR) discs
These discs can be recorded on once and
play in all standard CD players and CD
Recordable
recorders, when they are finalized.
– CD-Audio ReW ritable (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.
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
– 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.
Do not expose the CD recorder
batteries or CDs to humidity, rain,
sand or excessive heat (caused by
heating equipment or direct
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.

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
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.
- 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).
0
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.
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).
If you want to play the recorded CDR disc on a
regular CD player, it must be finalized.
Som e rem arks on recording
It is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first try.
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).
0
0
0
0
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.
Finalized CDRW discs play only on CDRW
compatible CD players.
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.)
