If you select “Normal”, go to the next step after the message above is shown.

When selecting “Tape”, select “New” or “Used” using the jog dial, and then press the [ENTER/YES] key. Go to the next step after the same message as above (shown when selecting “Norm”) is shown.

<Note>

When a used disk previously formatted in the Tape mode is reformatted in the Tape mode by selecting "New" for the disk type, the "Tape mode" file data is not erased (while "Normal mode" files are erased).

Therefore, if you record a new material to the old "Tape mode" file, new and old materials may exist together.

To erase all sound data when reformatting a disk in the Tape mode, make sure to select "Used" for the disk type.

Tips: Special usage of "New"

In general, "New" for the disk type is selected when formatting a new DVD-RAM disk.

However, there is a special case. If you cannot playback a recorded "Tape mode" file for any reason, reformat the disk in the Tape mode by selecting "New" for the disk type.

Audio data on the "Tape mode" file still remains after reformatting and can be played back cor- rectly.

<Note>

All the "Normal mode" files on the disk are erased.
