INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on the acquisition of your CD-Recorder. This CD-Recorder now enables you to record, play and erase your own audio Compact Discs. Naturally the recorder can also be used to play all pre-recorded CDs.

With the exception of legal restrictions pertaining to copying, you can now create your own high-quality audio recordings on CD. The discs used to record must bear the logos shown be- low. Copyright fees have been paid on these discs in some countries. Recording on other types of discs (e.g. CD-R for pro- fessional recordings) is not possible.

There are two types of recordable AUDIO discs:

CD-R(W) discs have a compatibility to play/record on the CD- Recorders based on the ORENGE BOOK Part II/III. But the discs might not be able to be played/recorded properly depend- ing on the combinations of the discs and CD-Recorders.

1CD Recordable Audio (record once):

Fully recorded and subsequently finalized audio CD-R discs can be played on all CD players and recorders that are suit- able for CD-R discs. A CD-R disc can be recognized by the following logo:

Recordable

Recordable

 

2CD ReWritable Audio (multiple recording):

Recorded and finalized audio CD-RW discs can be played on all CD players and recorders that are suitable for CD-RW discs. An increasing number of players and recorders will be suitable for these discs in the future. A CD-RW disc can be recognized by the following logo:

ReWritableReWritable

The CD-R(W)disc for ‘DIGITAL AUDIO’ can be both recording and playing on this CD-Recorder. In addition, this CD-Re- corder can play the CD-R(W) disc for ‘PROFESSIONAL RE- CORDING’, but cannot record it.

Once you start using the recorder, you will discover how easy it is to ‘make’ your own CDs. Nevertheless, we recommend that you use an erasable (CD-RW) digital audio disc on your first attempt, while following the instructions given here.

Attention!

Recordings may only be made for personal use.

It is forbidden to copy material protected by copyright, in- cluding computer programs, films, television and audio recordings. This appliance may not be used for applica- tions of this type.

Note:

Some CD players can not play the finalized CD-R(W) discs be- cause of the low reflectivity of such discs.

Because of laser power differences, some DVD players cannot play the finalized CD-R(W) discs.

Read the text carefully and keep the instructions close at hand so that you can refer to them if necessary.

Unpacking

First check the contents of the packaging. It should contain the following:

-CD-Recorder DR6050

-Remote control with batteries packaged separately

-Audio cables (2 - with red and white plugs)

-Remote control cable (with orange plugs)

-Instructions

-Guarantee

If one of these components is missing, please inform your sup- plier immediately. Save the packaging material it may come in handy if you move the appliance.

Setup

-Place the recorder on a strong, vibration-free surface.

-Do not use the recorder under extremely damp condi- tions.

-If the recorder is placed in a cabinet, make sure that a 2.5 cm space remains free on all sides of the recorder for proper ventilation.

Attention!

If the appliance is not used or operated in accordance with the instructions, this may result in exposure to dangerous radiation or other risks.

Only authorized technicians are allowed to open the appli- ance casing or to perform repairs or maintenance.

Compact discs

The glossy side shining like a rainbow is the front side of the disc, and the side on which the label is printed is the back. Unlike conventional turntables for playing analog discs, the DR6050 reads the information recorded on the disc from under- neath without contacting it using a beam of laser light. There- fore, the performance of a compact disc will not degrade like conventional analog records.

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch the front side.

To protect the disc, avoid placing it in the following loca- tions:

-In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a heater.

-In a place which is damp or dirty.

-In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as near a window.

Always keep the disc surface clean.

Up to six billion data units are recorded on the front side of the disc. When cleaning the disc surface, always be sure to use a special compact disc cleaner and wipe as shown below.
