Here’s how to finalize CD-R/RW media that you wrote using Track At Once, so that the disc can

be played by a CD-RW drive or a CD player.

1Insert the CD-R/RW media that you want to
finalize into the CD-RW drive.
2Repeatedly press the [CD] key or hold down
the [CD] key and use the CURSOR [ ]/[ ]
keys to access the CD WRITE page of the
CD screen.
3Move the cursor to the TRACK AT ONCE
button, and press the [ENTER] key.
The following screen will appear, and the track list
will show the content that has been written to that CD-
R/RW media. Already-recorded tracks will be dis-
played as “--EXIST--”.
4Move the cursor to the FINALIZE button,
and press the [ENTER] key.
A popup window will ask you to confirm the finalize
operation.
5To finalize the disc, move the cursor to the
OK button and press the [ENTER] key.
If you decide not to finalize the disc, move the cursor
to the CANCEL button and press the [ENTER] key.

Finalizing CD-R/RW media

CD-R/RW media written by the AW1600 using Track At Once (and not yet finalized) cannot be
played by another CD-RW drive or a CD player, but it can be played by the AW1600’s CD Play
function. (
