If the recording does not start

•Make sure the recorder is not locked (page 23).

•Make sure the MD is not record-protected (page 31).

•Premastered MDs cannot be recorded over.

For models supplied with the AC plug adaptor

If the AC power adaptor (supplied with the European, Chinese and Argentine models only) does not fit the wall outlet, use the AC plug adaptor.

Notes

•If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the battery is removed or becomes exhausted or the AC power adaptor is disconnected) during a recording or editing operation, or while “Edit” appears in the display, then it will not be possible to open the lid until power is restored.

•You can make a digital recording only from an optical type output.

•When recording from a portable CD player, set the CD player to pause, and then do the recording procedure on the recorder.

•Note the following when recording from a portable CD player:

—Some portable CD players may not be capable of digital out unless powered by the AC power.

—Connect the AC power adaptor to the portable CD player and use it on AC power as the power source.

—Disable any anti-skip function (such as ESP*) on the portable CD player.
