Recommendations and information concerning discs

CD-R and CD-RW discs

This player can play most CD-R and CD-RW discs. However, depending on the recorder of the discs of your personal computer, the type of disc and recording method used, some discs might not play, or the performance might not meet the expected standard of quality. When playing a CD-R disc, it is completely normal for the unit to take up to 20 seconds to recognize the disc before it plays. If the disc is not recognized after a period of 20 seconds, remove the disc, and then insert it again. If after several trials, the disc cannot be recognized, make sure you have followed the recommendations below or try another type of disc.

Whatever the actual recording capacity of a disc, do not fill it to maximum capacity.

Use CD-R discs rather than CD-RW (re-recordable CDs), as replay of CD-RWs may sometimes not work properly.

Use a reliable and good quality recording software.

Before recording on a disc, close all applications on you personal computer in order to optimize the quality and reliability of recordings on the disc.
