Disc tray

Place the disc on the disc tray with the label side facing up. Since disc size changes depending on the disc to be played back, be sure to correctly align the disc with the grooves for its size. If the disc is not in its groove, it may be scratched or otherwise damaged. To insert an 8 cm disc, place it according to the inner groove.

DVD-RAM discs contained in cartridges

Double-sided discs:

Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert with the side you wish to play back or record facing down. If you insert the disc with “Side A” facing down, programs are recorded on the side A.

Single-sided discs:

Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert with the label side facing up.
