Precautions When Loading Discs

ENGLISH

6PART NAMES AND FUNCTIONS

Only load one disc. Loading two or more discs in a layer will cause breakdown and may also scratch the discs.

Discs of the 8 cm size should be carefully aligned with the recessed disc guide area and loaded without the use of an adapter. If not properly loaded, the disc may fall out or the disc holder may cease to open.

Be careful not to get your finger caught when the disc holder is closing.

Do not place anything other than a disc on the disc tray.

Do not use discs that are cracked, misshapen, or have been repaired with an adhesive, etc.

Do not use discs that have adhesive coming out from cellophane tape or the label of a rental disc, or adhesive remaining after removal of the label. Use of a disc in this condition may result in the disc not being ejected or in breakdown.

5RESTRICTIONS RELATED TO THE CD-R/RW STANDARDS

Standards concerned with CD recorder playback have been established based on the existing standards of CD players; however, for recording, the method differs from that used with existing cassette decks and MD recorders, etc. In view of this, please gain a good understanding of the following restrictions associated with CD-R/RW discs and enjoy the medium.

Restrictions of CD-R/RW Discs

CD-R discs can be recorded to only once. The recorded information cannot be erased.

The recorded information of CD-RW discs can be erased.

Recording mistakes made with CD-R discs cannot be erased; therefore, it is recommended that a CD-RW disc be used until you are accustomed to the recording operation.

Restrictions in Recording with this Unit

The recording operation procedure is the same for CD-R discs and CD-RW discs.

When making additional recording to a previously recorded disc, the end of the last track is detected and recording is started from there.

The record standby mode cannot be set for CD-R/RW discs with less than about 8 seconds of recordable time remaining. If you attempt to do so, “Disc Full” is displayed.

Songs with a recording time of less than 4 seconds cannot be recorded.

• A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded to one CD-R/RW disc. If you attempt to record a 100th track, “Disc Full” is displayed, the track number cannot be changed and recording is not possible.

It is not possible to conduct digital input recording from digitally recorded CD-R/RW discs, MDs or DATs if “SCMS ENA.” is set at “Copy management” in the setup mode. In this case, either switch to analog input recording or set “SCMS INH.” in the setup mode.

This unit cannot record CD-ROM and other non-audio signal sources. When an attempt is made to record from such sources, “CopyProhibit” is displayed.

When a recording is made from a disc that includes data other than audio signals such as CD graphics, only the audio signal is recorded; other data is not recorded.

DVD (Dolby Digital, DTS, and other compressed audio signals) cannot be recorded.
