Important:
When the editing is completed, “WRITING” starts flashing after “EDITING” appeared on the display to store the edited contents on the MD.
While “WRITING” is flashing on the display, do not give any shock to the unit. Otherwise, the MD might not be able to play back anymore.
•If “PLAY BACK DISC” or “DISC PROTECTED” appears when you try to edit an MD
You cannot edit such MDs. See pages 45.
•During Program Play or Random Play
You can edit the MD as long as the playback is stopped except during Program/Random Play.
