Maintenance

English

For recording use, special audio discs must be used (for music only). These discs bear one of the logos as shown below. The text 'DIGITAL AUDIO' is present!

Your recorder can use two types of discs for recording purposes:

- CD-Audio Recordable (CDR) discs: fully recorded and finalized, these discs play on all CD players and recorders.

Recordable

- CD-Audio ReWritable (CDRW) discs: can be recorded, erased and re-recorded hundreds of times. When finalized, they play on CDRW compatible CD players and ReWritable recorders. In the course of 1999 most

Philips CD players and recorders will be CDRW compatible.

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

Discs for playback

Your CD recorder is able to play:

-All pre-recorded audio CDs.

-All Audio CDR and Audio CDRW.

Note: CDR(W) discs recorded with a computer can only be used when they are correctly treated according the audio standard (IEC958: Consumer part). Single session only!

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.

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.

Do not expose the CD recorder batteries or CDs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

If the CD recorder cannot read CDs correctly, use a commonly available cleaning CD to clean the lens before taking the CD player to be repaired. Other cleaning methods may damage the lens. 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.
