Inserting / removing a disk

You can insert or remove a disk regardless of whether the power is on or off, however, the procedure below is assumed that the power is on.

1)Slide the [OPEN] lever right and open the protection cover manually.

2)Press the [DISC UNLOCK] button to release the tray lock.

When the power is off, you do not have to do this.

3)Slide the [EJECT] lever to open the tray.

4)Set (or remove) a DVD-RAM disk to (or from) the tray and press the upper part of the tray to close the tray.

If you set an unused disk, the display shows the screen for prompting disk formatting.

<Note>

When inserting a disk to the tray, make sure that the direction is right.

<Note>

Depending on the condition when you turned off the power last time, the disk lock may not be released on rare occa- sions . In such a case, turn off and on the power, then press the [DISC UNLOCK] button again to release the disk lock.

<Notes>

When setting an unused new disk, the message as shown in <Figure 1> appears after reading the disk information, prompting that disk formatting is required.

An unused disk may not be formatted with the UDF format Rev 1.5 or may not have the BWF directory, therefore, it must be formatted with UDF Rev1.5 format.

When an unformatted disk or a disk which is not formatted in UDF format is set, the PD-6 automatically brings up the “Format” menu (see <Figure 2>) in the Utility mode after reading the disk information. This shows the disk is not UDF- formatted and must be formatted with UDF Rev1.5.

If you do not format the disk, press the [EXIT] key. The PD-6 releases the disk from locking so that you can remove the disk from the tray.
