Frequently Asked Questions - AZ1010 PHILIPS

How to power the AZ1010 device?
The device can be powered in two ways: by mains (220-240 V) by plugging in the supplied power cord, or by 6 R20/UM-1/D batteries (preferably alkaline) inserted into the battery compartment. When the device is plugged into the mains, battery power is automatically disabled.
What to do if the CD player display shows 'no' or 'E'?
The display 'no' or 'E' means the CD cannot be read. Possible causes: a scratched or dirty CD (clean it with a soft cloth from the center outwards), a CD placed upside down (printed side up), or no CD. If the lens is fogged, wait for the moisture to evaporate.
How to improve FM radio reception?
For FM reception, fully extend the telescopic antenna and orient it by rotating and tilting for optimal signal. If the signal is too strong (close transmitter), reduce the antenna length. Keep the device away from other electrical equipment like TVs or computers that may cause interference.
How to program a track list on a CD?
With CD playback stopped, select the desired track using the << or >> buttons, then press CD MODE to memorize it. Repeat for each track (max 20). To check the program, press and hold CD MODE for more than one second. To start programmed playback, press PLAY. To clear the program, press CD MODE in stop position.
What to do if recording does not work?
Check that the cassette is not protected against erasure: the plastic tab on the cassette edge must be intact. If it is broken, cover the hole with a piece of adhesive tape. Make sure to use a blank cassette of type NORMAL (IEC I), as CHROME or METAL types are not compatible with recording on this device.
How to clean the cassette deck heads?
Approximately every 50 hours of use, clean the heads (C), capstans (B), and pinch rollers (A) with a cotton swab slightly moistened with alcohol or magnetic head cleaning fluid. To access the pinch rollers, press PLAY; for capstans and heads, press PAUSE. You can also use a cleaning cassette for the heads.
How to use the DBB (Dynamic Bass Boost) function?
To activate bass enhancement, press the DBB button on the front panel. You can also enhance bass by placing the device against a wall or shelf. Be careful not to block the ventilation slots.
Why is there no sound or does the device seem powered off?
Several possible causes: volume is set to minimum (turn the VOLUME knob), headphones are plugged in (unplug them), the power cord is not connected properly, batteries are worn or incorrectly installed, or you are trying to switch from mains to batteries without removing the plug (remove the plug from the AC MAINS outlet).
How to perform synchronous recording from a CD?
Select the CD source with the POWER switch, insert a CD and optionally program the tracks. Open the cassette compartment with STOP-OPEN, insert a blank unprotected cassette, then press RECORD. CD or program playback starts automatically. To pause, use PAUSE; to stop, press STOP-OPEN.
How to switch from mains to battery power?
To use the device on batteries, first disconnect the power cord from the mains outlet and from the device (remove the plug from the AC MAINS outlet). Insert 6 R20/UM-1/D (alkaline) batteries into the battery compartment. Mains power automatically disables batteries, so make sure the device is no longer plugged in.

USER MANUAL AZ1010 PHILIPS

Instructions for use

Mode d'emploi

Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3 Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

  • Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black.
  • Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red.
  • Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E (or 12 ) or coloured green (or green and yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

Recording and playback of material may require consent. See Copyright Act 1956 and The Performer's Protection Acts 1958 to 1972.
