Finalizing a Disc

Finalizing a disc marks the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW disc. In this process, a TOC (Table Of Contents) is written to the disc. When this procedure is completed, it will be possible to play the CD-R or CD-RW disc on CD players compatible with CD- R and/or CD-RW discs.

•Please note that once a CD-R disc has been finalized, it is no longer possible to record to that disc.

•If the power of the unit is turned off or the AC power cord unplugged from the wall outlet during the finalizing process, the recording may be lost and the disc may no longer be usable.

•Even after a CD-RW disc has been finalized, further recording and/or editing is possible if the TOC information on the disc is erased using the Unfinalize function.

•When an unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW disc is loaded in the CDR and the OPEN/CLOSE 0 button is pressed to open the CDR disc tray, “FINALIZE?” is shown in the information dis- play. To skip the finalization process, press the OPEN/CLOSE 0 button one more time. The disc will be ejected in the unfinal- ized state.
