Finalizing CD-R & CD-RW discs

Finalizing is a simple procedure that is necessary in order to play back the discs on the CD Recorder/Player or on an external CD player.

Note: Finalizing prevents any further recording on a CD-R.

A finalized CD-RW must be unfinalized to allow further recording or erasure of tracks.

1Make sure the disc (in the CD Recorder/Player) is absolutely free of scratches and dust particles.

2With the recorder stopped press FINALIZE and then within

3 seconds press RECORD.

‹The approximate finalization time will appear in the display.

RECORD & FINALIZE lights up. The display counts down through the finalization.

On completion, the total number of tracks and the total time recorded will appear on the display. For CD-R CD RECORDABLE will change to CD on the display.

Finalizing will last at least 2 minutes.

Note: During finalisation, the CD Recorder/Player accepts no operating commands.
