ERASING (CD-RW ONLY)
Erasing CD-RW discs
A Last Track Erasing:
Erases the last track. This operation is not possible on a
B. All Tracks Erasing:
Erases all tracks.
C. TOC Erasing:
The TOC data on the finalized disc is erased.
D. All Disc Erasing:
This operation deletes all data on the disc.
This operation is mainly performed to enable disc recovery and is not normally performed.
CAUTION:
•The power must not be turned off during erasing since this could destroy the disc.
If a power outage occurs during erasing or you should inadvertently turn off the power during eras- ing, turn on the power when it comes back on again. The erase operation is then automatically restarted and takes 3 minutes for All tracks erasing and maximum recording time plus 5 minutes for Disc erasing. However, there is no guarantee that the disc will be erased normally. The erase opera- tion that is restarted when the power comes back can be stopped by pressing the stop ( ) button for 10 seconds. If this erase operation is stopped, the message "CHECK", "DISC" appears to indicate that the disc has not been normally erased.
•If the message "CHECK", "DISC" appears during erasing and erasing stops, the disc may be dam- aged.
Should this happen, eject the disc and check it. Then try erasing it again.
•Be sure to remove the disc after the erase operation and before turning off the power.
If the power is turned off with the disc still in the recorder, the backup data is deleted and the erase operation is cancelled.
