Erasing a CD-RW
disc

Although more expensive than CD-R discs,
the great advantage of CD-RW is that the
discs can be erased and reused. Various
erase options are available depending on
whether the disc has been finalized.

A third, special option, erases (re-
initializes) the whole disc. This process
takes quite a long time to complete and
should be used for recovering damaged
discs, not for erasing tracks from a healthy
disc.

Caution!
Never switch off the power during CD-RW
erasing - your disc may become unusable.

If the message

CHECK

DISC

appears any

time during any erase process, press

0,

take out the disc, clean it, then try the
erase command again.

Be sure to remove the disc from the
recorder before switching off the power,
otherwise the erase operation will not be
completed.
