Finalizing a CD-R or CD-

RW disc

Finalizing completes the recording of a disc. It enables you to play the disc on other players. (The player must be CD-RW compatible. ) When a recording is finished, a CD-R or CD- RW disc must be finalized. Once that is done, a CD-R disc may not be changed or added to. CD-RW discs are locked once they are finalized, and must be unfinalized to permit additional recording or erasure.

When using the remote, set SELECT to CDR for operations on DECK B.
