1 Before You Start Avoiding condensation problems About CD, CD–R and CD–RW Discs Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly. Although the condensation won’t damage the player, it may temporarily impair its performance. For this reason you should leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before switching on and using.
1 Before You Start Recording copyright material The price of a consumer-use disc includes a copyright fee that has been paid to the copyright owner (in countries where the copyright fee collection system has been established based on their respective copyright laws). This means that you can use these discs to record music and other material for your personal use.
2 Connecting Up Rear panel Important: Before making or changing any rear panel connections, make sure that all the components are switched off and unplugged from the power supply. Connect to the OPTICAL IN or COAXIAL IN of a CD-R, MiniDisc or DAT recorder, or other digital recording device to be able to record from this unit. Connect to the OPTICAL OUT or COAXIAL OUT of a CD, MiniDisc, DAT or other digital equipment for digital recording.
2 Connecting Up Connecting a keyboard You can choose to use a connected keyboard to control many of the playback and recording features of the PDR-W839. This is useful when you want to name your CD-Rs or CD-RWs for future reference. This unit is designed for use with a U.S.English keyboard, connected to the KEYBOARD INPUT on the front panel with a six-pin mini DINtype jack (see right).

9 Additional Information Handling discs Discs to avoid When holding CDs of any type, take care not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by the center hole and edge. Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback and/or recording performance. Take care also not to scratch the label side of the disc. Although not as fragile as the recording side, scratches can still result in a disc becoming unusable.
