6 Prepare the recording source.

Recording from a cassette tape

To record the entire tape, rewind the tape to its starting point. To record from the middle of a tape, stop or pause at the point from where you want to start recording.

Select the DOLBY NR (noise reduction) setting (page 10).

To record from a single tape side, set the REV MODE switch to u, and set the playback direction using the Reverse (g) or Forward (t) play button. Then press the TAPE Stop (H) button.

To record from both tape sides, set the REV MODE switch to j, and set the playback direction to t. If you set the recording direction to g, recording will be of “side B” only.

7 Press the CD Play/Pause (t/J) button or RECORD button (KRECORD) again to start recording.

When recording from an external source, you must also start playback of that source.

The red CD RECORD indicator to the right of the display and the indicator on the display stop blinking.

CAUTION

Do not turn the unit off or disconnect the power cord during recording. Doing so could damage the unit and connected devices.

<If the CD runs out of capacity during recording, recording will stop.

<To pause recording temporarily, press the CD Play/Pause (t/J) button. A second press of the button resumes recording. Each time that you pause recording a new track number will be added.

Recording from a cassette tape

When source playback stops, recording also automatically stops. To stop recording, press the CD Stop (H) button. Doing this also stops playback of the recording source.

Recording from an external source

When source playback stops, recording does not automatically stop. Press the CD Stop (H) button to stop recording.

To stop recording

Press the Stop (H) button to stop recording.

<If the CD-R is finalized, it can be played with another CD player.

<If you finalize a CD-RW, it will become playable on other CD players that are compatible with CD-RW discs. If you want to record again on a finalized CD-RW, unfinalize it (page 37).

<The minimum length of a track that is required for recording is 10 seconds. If you press the Stop (H) button within 10 seconds from the beginning of a track, recording stops only after the track is recorded for 10 seconds.

To pause recording

Press the CD Play/Pause (t/J) button. “WAITING” briefly appears on the display, then recording is paused.

To restart recording, press the CD Play/Pause (t/J) button.

<You cannot restart recording while “WAITING” is displayed.

<Remember that every time recording is paused or stopped, a new track number will always be assigned. It is not possible to record in two “stages” within one track.
