Erase or Unfinalize a CD-RW

1 3

2

It is possible to erase the last recorded tracks. It is not, however, possible to erase tracks in the “middle” of the disc.

It is also possible to erase a whole disc.

Erase procedures are possible only on an unfinallized CD-RW disc. If a CD-RW disc has been finalized, unfinalize it prior to erasure. Remember that it is not possible to perform any erase or unfinalize procedures on a CD-R disc.

1Load a recorded CD-RW.

2Press the ERASE button in the stop mode.

“UNFINALIZE” appears when a finalized disc is loaded.

“ERASE” and the last track number appear when the disc hasn’t been finalized. Each time the ERASE button is pressed, the display changes as follows:

“ERASE” and the number of the last track recorded on the disc

Select this to erase the last track on the disc.

If you want to erase two or more tracks at once, press the MUSIC SKIP button repeatedly to select the first track number to be erased. For example, if 12 tracks have been recorded on the disc, “ERASE 10-12” means the last 3 tracks (No.10, 11 and 12) will be erased.

<This will not appear when only one track is recorded on the disc.

ERASE DISC

Select this to erase all the tracks.

REFRESH

Select this to refresh the disc. It will take more than 40 minutes.

<If a CD-RW disc has been corrupted at any point (e.g. power has been cut off in the middle of a finalize operation, etc.), “REFRESH” might be effective to make the disc usable again. This operation will destroy all data on the disc.

<To cancel the erasing or unfinalizing process, press the STOP button (H).

3Press the PLAY button (y) to start erasing or unfinalizing.

The remaining time for the operation appears in the display. When the operation has been finished, the display returns to the track/time display.

During erasing/unfinalizing, no buttons will work. Never turn the power off nor unplug the power cord.

<This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to erase a track or tracks, make sure that they are recordings that you really want to erase.
