Do not disconnect the deck from the power source immediately after
recording
If you do, recorded material may not be saved to the MD. To save the
material, after recording, press § EJECT to take out the MD or turn off the
deck. “TOC Writing” will flash at this time.
After “TOC Writing” goes out, you can pull out the AC power cord.
To protect an MD against accidental erasure
To make it impossible to record on an MD, slide the tab in the direction of
arrow, opening the slot. To allow recording, close the slot.
Notes
• You cannot record over existing
material. The deck automatically
starts recording from the end of
the existing material.
• Make sure that the remaining
recordable time on the MD is
longer than the playing time of
the CD, especially if you want to
record all the tracks on the CD.
• You cannot pause recording.
• If the play mode is set to Repeat
Play or Shuffle Play, it
automatically switches to normal
play at step 5.
• The recording level specified in
the Setup Menu (page 23) is not
applied. The initial reference
level (0.0 dB) is used instead.
When “TOC Writing” flashes in
the display
The deck is currently updating the
Table Of Contents (TOC). Do not
move the deck or pull out the AC
power cord. Changes to an MD
made through recording are saved
only when you update the TOC by
ejecting the MD or turning off the
deck.
