These are accessed by pressing the

Details of these modes are given below.

2.1 Disc copy

NOTE

You should own the copyright, or have
obtained the appropriate permission from the
copyright owner or the rightful licensor, your
unauthorized recording, reproduction or distri-
bution thereof, may result in severe civil and
criminal penalties under copyright laws and

international copyright treaties.

This procedure copies the material from the disc
(either an audio CD or a CD-ROM) in the

MASTER

drive to the CD-R in the

SLAVE

drive. You may find

it useful to test the copy procedure before commit-
ting yourself to an actual copy, however. See 2.2,
"Test write mode" for details.

NOTES

Once a copy operation has started, it cannot
be stopped before the disc has been finalized.
The only way to stop a copy operation is to
turn off the power to the unit. However, this
will make the CD-R disc useless for any
purpose.

Do not use warped discs or discs with off-cen-
ter holes with the CD-D4000.

While the copy operation is in progress, make
sure that the CD-D4000 is not subjected to

vibration or mechanical shocks.
