General information
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.
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.
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
Recordable
once and play in all standard 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.
– CD-Audio ReWritable
(CDRW) discs
These discs can be recorded on,
erased and re-recorded many
ReWritable
times and play in CDRW compatible CD players
and CD recorders, when they are finalized.
Do not expose the CD recorder,
batteries or CDs to humidity, rain,
sand or excessive heat (caused by

To ensure proper working of the CD recorder we
recommend the use of Philips audio CDR and audio
CDRW discs only.
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.
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.

Which connections do you need?
Explanation of connections
For playback on the CD recorder
1 Connection to mains
(and/or CD player deck) the following outputs are present:
2 ANALOG OUT CD
- Digital coaxial output (CD & CDR - DIGITAL OUT) 7;
- Analog output (CD & CDR - ANALOG OUT) 5.
connects to the line (analog) input of an amplifier/receiver,
so you can listen to playback of the CD player deck via the
amplifier/receiver (only needed for separate playback of
CD player deck in DJ mode)
We advise you to connect these to theTAPE or CDR input
on your amplifier.
3 DIGITAL OUT CD
For recording from internal player deck no
connects to the digital coaxial input of an amplifier/receiver,
so you can listen to playback of the CD player deck via the
amplifier/receiver (only needed for separate playback of
CD player deck in DJ mode)
connections are needed.
For external recording the following inputs are present:
- Digital optical input (CDR - OPTICAL IN) 8;
- Digital coaxial input (CDR - DIGITAL IN) 6;
- Analog input (CDR - ANALOG IN) 4.
4 ANALOG IN CDR
Note: It is not possible to connect a record player directly to the
CD recorder. Recordings can only be made from a record
player connected via amplifier or receiver.
For playback of CD player deck separately
(DJ mode) from the CD recorder the following outputs are
present:
connects to the line (analog) output of an amplifier/receiver
or other analog source (tape deck, tuner etc.), so you can
record from this source (ANALOG). For recording from a
record player both recorder and record player should be
connected to an amplifier/receiver
- Digital coaxial output (CD) 3;
- Analog output (CD) 2.
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.
5 ANALOG OUT CD & CDR
connects to the line (analog) input of an amplifier/receiver,
so you can listen to playback of this CD recorder via the
amplifier/receiver
Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best
performance in audio and usability (e.g. auto-track increment).
The digital optical connection is less sensitive to external
disturbances.
6 DIGITAL IN CDR
connects to the digital coaxial output of an external digital
source (CD player, DVD, DAT, etc.), so you can record from
this source (DIGITAL1)
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.
7 DIGITAL OUT CD & CDR
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.
connects to the digital coaxial input of an amplifier/receiver,
so you can listen to playback of the CDR or CD deck via
the amplifier/receiver
8 OPTICAL IN CDR
connects to the digital optical output of an external digital
source (CD player, DVD, DAT, etc.), so you can record from
this source (OPTICAL)

How to connect your recorder
Tip:
Analog connection CD player deck (DJ-mode)
This connection is only required if you want to playback on the
CD player deck seperately from the CD recorder deck..
This will be the case in DJ-mode.
If the integrated CD player deck will be the only
source from which you are going to record, just
connect the analog output for playback of the CD
recorder to your amplifier/receiver (cable 1).
Analog connections
DIGITAL
RECEIVER
These connections are required for playback on the CD
recorder deck as well as the CD player deck (cable 1). Cable 2
is required for making recordings from an external analogue
source (e.g. via amplifier: cassettedeck or turntable).

How to connect your recorder
Digital optical connection
Power supply/Mains
Instead of the digital coaxial connection you can make use of
the optical input.. Optical connections are less sensitive to
external disturbances.This connection is required for direct
recording from an external digital optical source (e.g. a CD
player, DVD, DAT).
CD PLAYER
1 Check whether the mains voltage as shown on the type
plate corresponds to your local mains voltage. If it does not,
consult your dealer or service organisation.

3 Plug the power cord supplied into the AC MAINS ~
connector and the CD recorder, then into the wall socket.
1 Remove the dust caps from the digital optical connections
of both source and CD recorder. Keep the caps in a safe
place.
4 Press ON/OFF.
➜ The CD recorder will switch on.This may take a few
seconds.
2 Connect an optical fibre-optic cable
between the OPTICAL IN socket of
the CD recorder and the OPTICAL
OUT socket of the source.
Notes:
If the CD recorder is in Standby mode (red LED on), press
any key to activate the recorder.
When the CD recorder is in the “OFF” position, it is still
consuming some power. If you wish to disconnect your CD
recorder completely from the mains, withdraw the plug from
the AC Outlet.
Make sure you insert both plugs
fully, until a click is heard.
➜ Recording can now be done via the digital optical input
(OPTICAL).
Digital coaxial connections via a digital receiver
If you have a receiver with digital coaxial in- and outputs, these
connections allow you to make digital recordings from various
sources, connected to the receiver.

During high speed recording, the original recording quality
will be maintained.
For recording from internal CD-deck:
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.
When Auto track is on (default setting), track numbers will
automatically be increased during recording.
0
0
By programming tracks first, a compilation can be recorded.
MAKE CD (high speed digital recording and auto-finalize)
- fast recording of a disc or programmed tracks.
Recording will be finalized automatically.
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.
For recording from external sources:
REC EXT DISC (automatic start of recording)
- to make an automatic recording of an external source
simply by starting the source.
0
If a finalized CD rewritable disc is inserted in the CD
recorder, UNFINALIZEand PRESS ENTERwill be
displayed when the RECTYPE is pressed. If ENTER is
pressed, the disc will be unfinalized.
REC EXT MAN (manual start of recording)
- to start a manual recording from an external source
simply by pressing the RECORD key.
0
0
The recording procedure is the same for CDRs and
CDRWs.
The CD recorder deck is able to record CD text from the
internal CD player deck only. (If not subject to copy
protection)
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.
0
0
0
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 you want to play the recorded CDR disc on a
regular CD player, it must be finalized.
If the display indicates COPY PROTECT no digital
recording can be made of the source material. Recording
will not start.
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).
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.
Finalized CDRW discs play only on CDRW
compatible CD players.
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).
0
0
A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc.
Minimum allowable track length is 4 seconds.
For external recordings from CD changers always use REC
EXT DISC.

Adjusting recording level
Recording from internal deck
Recording from external source
Set the recording level, if necessary, to make compilations
from different discs with equalized volume levels. Pre-
recorded CD’s often have different volume levels.When
playing back your compilation you could hear these
differences in volume between tracks.
Some external analog sources have such high output levels,
that you may need to adjust the recording level to ensure
good quality recordings without distortion.
1 Place an unfinalized CDR(W), absolutely free of scratches
and dust particles in the left CDR tray.
Amplifying a of digital audio information stream will distort
the audio signal.This means that digital signals can only be
decreased in volume to obtain equal audio levels for
different tracks. Our advise is to record all tracks on -3dB
(or lower if needed). In this way it is possible to
- increase (0 dB is maximum) the volume level for
those tracks with a weaker signal,
2 Press SOURCE repeatedly to select the ANALOG input
➜
ANALOG lights up and ANALOGwill appear on the

PRESS RECORD.
- decrease (-3 dB or less) the volume level for those
tracks with a stronger signal.
4 Start the source by pressing PLAY/PAUSE 2;.
DO NOT start recording!
For pre-listening you need to make a test recording with a
CDRW disc in the left disctray:
5 Rotate the EASY JOG/ENTER key to decrease the record
level until, on the Record/Play Level bar, all the blue
segments are alight, but the red segments do not light
continuously during the loudest passages.
1 After pressing the RECTYPE key rotate the EASY
JOG/ENTER key to decrease the level (e.g. -3dB) for the
track(s) of the first disc.
6 Press STOP 9on the CD recorder and on the source.
2 Press RECORD to record a track.
3 Press STOP.
➜
The adjusted recording level is stored in the memory
of your recorder (also when powered off!).

5 Press the RECTYPE key, rotate the EASY JOG/ENTER key
to increase/decrease the recording level and repeat step 2
and 3.
6 Judge the various recording levels from your test recording.
Now you are able to make a final recording and preset the
correct recording level of each individual track before you
record it.
7 Place the CDR(W) disc on which you want to make your
final recording.
Notes:
During recording it is possible to adjust the recording level
with the EASY JOG/ENTER key.
The adjusted recording level is stored in the memory of your

Unfinalizing CDRW discs
During finalizing, an index is written to the disc.
For CDRW discs only
Finalizing is a simple procedure that is necessary in order
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).
If you want to make more recordings (or erase tracks) on a
finalized disc, you must unfinalize it first.The index of the
disc content will be removed.
To unfinalize
1 With the CD recorder stopped, press RECTYPE or ERASE.
➜ UNFINALIZEand PRESS ENTERwill appear on the
display.
Note:When a CDR has been finalized, no more recordings can
be added.
2 Press the EASY JOG/ENTER key.
➜ The disc will now be unfinalized and can be used again
to record.
Auto finalizing
The CDR(W) is automatically finalized when using the MAKE
CD recording function.
Note:After unfinalizing the recorder enters:
- RECORD FASTmode if the REC TYPE key was pressed
before unfinalizing
- ERASE TRACKmode if the ERASE key was pressed before
unfinalizing

if the text memory is full, the message
MEMORY FULL/FINALIZE CDwill be displayed.Text must
be erased, stored for other discs, or another disc must be
finalized in order to create space in the memory.
The display counts down through the finalization.
Upon completion, the total number of tracks and the
total time recorded will appear on the display.
