Finalizing is a simple procedure, necessary to:
- be able to play recordings on a CD PLAYER,
- avoid further unwanted recordings on a disc,
- avoid erasure of tracks on a CDRW.
Auto finalizing

Auto finalizing is possible when using the MAKE CD recording

function.

Manual finalizing
1Make sure the disc (in the CD recorder) is absolutely free of
scratches and dust particles.
2With the recorder stopped press FINALIZE.
The display shows FINALIZEand PRESS RECORD.
3Press RECORD.
XX XX FINALand the approximate finalisation time
appears on the display.
The display counts down through the finalisation.
On completion, the total number of tracks and the total
time recorded appears on the display.
For CDR(W), CDR(W)changes to CDon display.
Finalizing will take at least 2 - 4 minutes.

Note: During finalisation, the CD recorder accepts no

operating commands.

For CDRW discs only.
If you want to make more recordings (or erasures of tracks) on
a finalized disc you must unfinalize it first. The Table of
Contents (TOC) will be removed.
To unfinalize:
1With the CD recorder stopped, press REC TYPE or ERASE.
UNFINALIZE and PRESS ENTER will appear on
the display.
2Press ENTER.
The disc will now be unfinalized and can be recorded on
again.

- Unfinalizing will take approximately 2 minutes.

- When unfinalizing a CDRW disc with text on it available,

this text will be transferred to the CD recorder memory. It

may occur that the text memory is full. The message

MEMORY FULL/FINALIZE CDwill be displayed. You

will now have to erase text, stored for other discs, or

finalize another disc in order to obtain memory space.
