6 Introduction

Welcome!

Your Philips DVD Recorder both records DVD+RWs and plays prerecorded DVDs. You can record TV programs, edit camcorder recordings, and quickly access your DVD+RW recordings in the Index Picture Screen. Plus, the DVD+RW recordings you make on the Recorder will play on some DVD Players and DVD-ROM drives. You’ll soon appreciate the digital picture and sound quality of DVD and DVD+RW, which will exceed the quality you have had with video cassette tapes.

Read this manual carefully to understand the latest features, then enjoy your new DVD Recorder.

Environmental Information

Your system has materials that can be recycled and reused if disassembled by a specialized company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, exhausted batteries, and old equipment.

Safety Information

●Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain, sand, or heat sources.

●Place the DVD Recorder on a firm, flat surface.

●Keep the DVD Recorder away from domestic heating equipment and direct sunlight.

●When placing the DVD Recorder in a cabinet, allow about one inch of space all around the DVD Recorder for ventilation.

Cleaning Discs

●When a Disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the Disc from the center out, in a straight line.

●Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for analog discs.

●If the DVD Recorder cannot read Discs correctly, use a commonly available cleaning CD/DVD to clean the lens. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens. Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

●The lens may cloud over if you suddenly move the DVD Recorder from cold to warm surround- ings. Playing a Disc is not possible then. Leave the power on for about one hour with no Disc in the Recorder until normal playback is possible.
