Step 1: Choose a disc type.

For example, when you want to record repeat- edly on the same disc, or when you want to edit the disc after recording, select the rewrita- ble DVD-RW type disc.

When you want to save recordings without any alteration, a non-rewritable DVD-R can be your choice.

Step 2: Insert a blank disc.
