DC ERASE SERVICE MODE

(erasement of complete CD-RW)

This test is initiated by pressing [ERASE] and [RECORD] simultaneously while switching on the unit. The player will erase a complete CD-RW disc (including PMA and ATIP lead out area) at speed N=2. The display shows the countdown of the remaining time required for the operation to complete. The format is "ER mm:ss", where "mm" are the remaining minutes and "ss" the remaining seconds. After completion the message "PASSED" is shown, and the player has to be switched off and on again to start up in normal operating mode. Switching off the unit before completion of the test, leaves the disc in an unpredictable state. In such case only a complete DC-erase procedure can recover the CD-RW disc.
