The 2005 range DVD Recorder products are repaired centrally.
Defective sets must be identified, labelled and stored for pick-up.
This document gives full instructions for a functional check.
Technical information to repair faulty sets is therefore not provided in this document.
To test in-coming sets the following must be performed:
1. Verify / Reproduce the customer’s problem
2. Verify that set has latest Firmware (see chapter 2) and upgrade if it is not the latest version.
3. Full functional check

www.atyourservice.ce.philips.com
A. Preparation to upgrade firmware:
1. Unzip the zip-archive file
2. Start the CD Burning software and create a new CD project
(data disc) with the following settings:
File system : Joliet
Format : MODE 2: CDROM XA
Recording mode : SINGLE SESSION (TRACK-
AT-ONCE), FINALIZED CD
Note: Long file name is necessary for the preparation of the
upgrade disc
3. Place the content of the zip-archive into the root directory of
the new CD project.
4. Burn the data onto a blank CDR or CD-RW
B. Procedure to apply the firmware upgrade:
1. Hold the Record + Next buttons down and Power up
the set to go into “Forced Download”. The tray door opens
automatically and the display shows:
DOWNLOAD ->……….PUT DISC
2. Insert the prepared Upgrade CDROM and close the tray.
3. The set will display:
READING -> DOWNLOAD ->……….
The whole process takes less than 10 minutes
Note: Do not press any buttons or interrupt the mains
supply during the upgrading process, otherwise the
set may become defective.
4. When the upgrade is completed the tray opens automatically
and the set will display:
REMOVE
5. Remove the Upgrade CDROM and close the tray. The
display shows:
DONE
6. The set switches automatically into Standby mode. Power off
the set to complete the download process.
