Chapter 3: Recording CDs

Unfinalizing Discs (CD-RWs only)

If you want to record additional tracks on a finalized CD-RW or completely erase a CD- RW that has been finalized, you’ll need to unfinalize it first. This process removes track information on the CD, including the Tables of Contents (TOC).

1.Make sure the CD-RW disc you want to unfinalize is in tray B.

2.Press ERASE, then PLAY/PAUSE on side B of the unit (ERS TOC and ERASE appear).

Unfinalization takes about 1 minute. When finished, ERS OK appears and the recorder displays the total number of tracks and the total time for the disc.

Erasing Discs (CD-RWs only)

If a CD-RW is unfinalized, you can erase single tracks or an entire disc.

Erasing Single Tracks

1.Make sure the CD-RW disc you want to erase is in tray B. Remember, the disc must be unfinalized (see Unfinalizing Discs above).

2.Enter the track you want to erase using the SKIP/SEARCH arrow buttons.

3.Press ERASE, then PLAY/PAUSE on side B of the unit (ERS TRK and ERASE appear).

When finished, ERS OK appears and the recorder displays the remaining disc information.

Erasing a Disc

1.Make sure the CD-RW disc you want to erase is in tray B. Remember, the disc must be unfinalized (see Unfinalizing Discs above).

2.Press and release ERASE twice, then PLAY/PAUSE on side B of the unit (ERS DISC and ERASE appear).

Erasing a disc might take up to 2 minutes. When finished, ERS OK and BLK DISC appear.
