still be done.

is possible. You can still use the disc as a CD

1 Switch the recorder off using ON/OFF.
2 Simultaneously press PLAY and STOP and switch the
recorder back on using ON/OFF.
The display will now indicate BUSY and after a few
minutes, the message will change to ERROR or
PASSED
If the ERROR message appears, your recorder is
defective and needs to be repaired. Consult your supplier
or call the Philips Consumer Line to find the nearest
service center. The number of the Consumer Line can be
found in the guarantee booklet.
If the PASSED message appears, you may be
misinterpreting the user instructions or using an
inappropriate disc, or there may be a mechanical defect or
an incorrect connection. Carefully read the user
instructions once again; and if necessary contact your
supplier.
If you cannot solve the problem, contact to the nearest
