Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plugThis apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. Tochange a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.2 Fix new fuse which should be a

BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.3 Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, itshould be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at thedistribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid apossible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Ampsocket elsewhere.

How to connect a plugThe wires in the mains lead are coloured with the followingcode: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L).As these colours may not correspond with the colour markingsidentifying 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 cordgrip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply overthe two wires.

GENERAL INFORMATION

For recording, make sure to use special audio discs only.These discs are marked “Digital Audio” and the logos shownbelow.

There are two different types of audio discs for the use onthis CD recorder:

– CD-Audio Recordable (CDR) discsThese discs can be recorded on once andplay on all standard CD players andCD recorders, when finalized.

– CD-Audio ReWritable (CDRW) discsThese discs can be recorded on, erasedand re-recorded many times and play onCDRW compatible CD players andCD recorders, when finalized.

All Philips CD players and CD recorders with this sticker are CDRW compatible.

To ensure proper working of the set we recommend the use ofPhilips audio CDR and audio CDRW discs only.

Note: Do not use a computer CDR or CDRW as recording willnot work properly!

Recording is permissable insofar as copyright or otherrights of third parties are not infringed upon.

In some countries the use of the Philips CDR MiniHi-Fi system as shown or suggested in this usermanual may require the authorization of copyrightholders.

For playback on this CD changer and CD recorder you can usefollowing audio discs:

– All pre-recorded audio CDs

– All audio CDR and audio CDRW discs

Notes: – Do not try to play a CD-ROM, CD-I or CDV!– CDR(W) discs, which are recorded on a computer

can only be used when they are correctly treatedaccording to the audio standard (IEC958: Consumerpart). Single session only!

If the CDR Mini Hi-Fi system fails to read discs correctly use acommonly available cleaning-CD to clean the lenses beforesubmitting the set to repair. Other cleaning methods maydestroy the lenses. Always keep the trays closed to avoiddust on the lenses.

The lenses may cloud over when the set is suddenly movedfrom cold to warm surroundings. Playing a CD(RW) is notpossible then. Leave the set in a warm environment until themoisture evaporates.

To take a CD(RW) out of its box easily, press the centre spindle whilelifting the CD(RW). Always pick up aCD(RW) by the edge and put it back inits box after use. Never write on a CDor attach a sticker to it. Write only on the printed side of a CDR or CDRW,and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.

To clean a CD(RW), wipe it in a straight line from the centre toward theedge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Acleaning agent may damage the disc!

The type plate is located on the rear of the set.

1 Check whether the mains voltage as shown on the typeplate corresponds to your local mains voltage. If it does not,consult your dealer or service organisation.

2 Make sure all connections have been made beforeswitching on the mains supply.

3 Connect the mains cable supplied to AC MAINS ~ and tothe wall socket. This switches on the mains supply.

For optimal performance use only the original mainscable.

When the set is switched to standby, it is still consumingsome power. To disconnect the set from the mains completely,remove the mains plug from the wall socket.

For users in the U.K.: please follow the instructions onpage 2.

To avoid overheating of the set a safety circuit hasbeen built in. Therefore your set may disconnect underextreme conditions. If this happens, switch the set offand let it cool down before reusing it.

The speaker connections are click-fit connectors. Use them asshown below.

1 Connect the coloured (or marked) wire to the red terminaland the black (or unmarked) wire to the black terminal.

2 Connect:– Left speaker to L (red and black)– Right speaker to R (red and black)

AM antennaThe loop antenna supplied is for indoor use only.

1 Fit the plug of the loop antenna to AM AERIAL as shownbelow.

2 Position the antenna as far away as possible from the TV, aVCR and other radiation sources.

3 Turn the antenna for optimum reception.

FM antennaThe wire antenna supplied can only be used to receive nearbystations. For better reception we recommend using a cableantenna system or an outdoor antenna.

1 Fit the supplied wire antenna to FM AERIAL 75 Ω as shownbelow.

2 Move the antenna in different positions for optimumreception.

• If you are using a cable antenna system or an outdoorantenna, fit the antenna plug to FM AERIAL 75 Ω insteadof the wire antenna.

ABOUT RECORDING

16

The CD recorder deck offers you 3 main functions:– Recording from the internal CD changer and tuner or

from a selected external source– Finalizing your CDR(W) discs and unfinalizing your

CDRW discs– Erasing a CDRW disc

The recording procedure is the same for CDR and CDRWdiscs. Make sure the CDR(W) is absolutely free ofscratches and dust particles.

For recordings, the minimum track length is 4 seconds. Youcan record up to a maximum of 99 tracks on a disc. Theminimum of recording time left on the disc is 7 seconds.Otherwise Does not fit is displayed and you cannotenter the record standby mode.

Copyright protectionThe Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) prevents themaking of a digital copy from a digital copy. The systemallows making a digital recording from the original, howeverin some countries this may require the authorization ofcopyright holders.

When you try to record a copy protected material from anexternal source, Copy Protect will be displayed. Nofurther digital recording is possible then.

When you try to record a copy protected material from theinternal CD changer no digital recording is possible, however theCD recorder will automatically switch to analogue recording.

Recording CD textIf the original CD has CD Text, this text will be recordedautomatically, provided that the CD text is not copy protected.In that case, recording of CD text will not be possible andText Protect will be displayed.

The CD recorder is equipped with the high-performanceDirect Line Recording technique. It ensures a perfect recordingof the source material, meaning a true “bit for bit” recording.DLR will always become active, when you make normalrecordings in listen mode.

Auto Level Control ensures that the tracks on the recordeddisc have a similar volume level. At all times the alreadyrecorded tracks of the CDR(W) disc will be taken as referencefor the volume level of the following recordings. ALC is active,when ALC is shown.

Auto level control becomes active, when:– COMPILE CD is being used,– a disc, a track or a track edit is being high speed recorded

and the CDR(W) has recordings on it,– a program (consisting from more than one disc) from the

CD changer is being high speed recorded, or– CD™CD is being used and the CDR(W) has recordings

on it.

Auto level control will not become active, when:– CD™CD is being used and the CDR(W) has no recordings

on it,– making recordings from the FM tuner,– making recordings from an external source, or– making normal recordings in listen mode.

You can adjust the reference record level. This is alsopossible when ALC is active. This feature can be used forfading your recordings in or out.

1 Keep REC LEVEL on the set pressed to enable the rotarycontrol to adjust the record level.

2 Turn the rotary control to the left to adjust the desiredrecord level.yThe actual record level (in dB) will be displayed.
