Erasing a CDÐRW disc

Although more expensive than CD-R discs, the great advantage of CD-RW is that the discs can be erased and reused. Various erase options are available depending on whether or not the disc has been finalized.

A third, special option, erases (re-initializes) the whole disc. This process takes quite a long time to complete and should be used for recovering damaged discs, not for erasing tracks from a healthy disc.

Caution!

Never switch off the power during CD-RW erasing — the disc may be damaged as a result.

If the message CHECK DISC appears any time during any erase process, hit eject, take out the disc, clean it, then try the erase command again.

Be sure to remove the disc from the recorder before switching off the power, otherwise the erase operation will not be completed.

When a non-finalized disc is loaded:

1Press ERASE.

2Use the jog dial (or press 41 or

Á¢) to change the erase option.

Switch between:

• Erase just the last track

ERASE LAST ? CD-RW

• Erase all tracks

ERASE ALL ? CD-RW

• Erase multiple tracks (erase from track ... to track ... )

ERASE O2Ð1O ? CD-RW

Keep pressing 41(or Á¢) to change the ‘erase from’ track — the ‘erase to’ track is always the last track.

• Press 7or ERASE again to cancel erase here.

3Press 6 (CD-R side).

4Eject or finalize the disc.

You must eject, then re-insert the disc if you want to record any new tracks. See Finalizing a disc on page 30 if you have finished all the recording and editing that you want do to.
