General Information

Introduction

Your Philips DVD recorder allows you to record the TV programmes or duplicate camcorder recordings to a DVD+RW or DVD+R and play pre-recorded DVDs. The recordings you make on the recorder will play on most of the DVD players and DVD-ROM drives. The DVD+R discs have to be finalised before they can be played on other DVD players.

Please take time to read this user manual before using your DVD recorder. It contains important information and notes regarding operations of the recorder.

Helpful Hints:

If you have questions or if problems come up during operation, please see the chapter ‘Troubleshooting’.

If you need further assistance, please call the customer support service for your country. The corresponding telephone numbers and e-mail addresses are given in the guarantee booklet.

Refer to the type plate on the rear or bottom of the product for identification and supply ratings.
