Installation position
The MD recorder is very sensitive to vibrations. It should be installed in a position subject to as small vibration as possible.
Dust countermeasure
The shutter of the disc cartridge is permanently open while the disc is loaded in the set. Therefore, to prevent dust from penetrating inside the disc, take the disc out of the unit immediately after completion of recording or playback.
