About CD, CD–R and
CD–RW Discs
This unit is compatible with three different
types of compact disc:
Playback-only CDs
This unit will playback any
ordinary audio CDs carrying
the Compact Disc Digital
Audio mark shown right.
CD-Recordable discs
Recordable CDs, or CD-R,
carry the mark shown right,
and are 'write once'. This
means that once something
is recorded on the disc it is permanent — it
can't be re-recorded or erased.
CD-Rewritable discs
Rewritable CDs, or CD-RW,
carry the mark shown right.
As the name indicates, you
can erase and re-record
material on these discs so that they can be
used over and over again.
Consumer-use discs
This recorder is only compatible with special
consumer-use CD-R and CD-RW discs. These
are clearly marked For Music Use Only, For
Consumer, or For Consumer Use. Other types
of CD-R or CD-RW discs, such as those
available for computer-based CD recorders,
will not work with this recorder.

Recording copyright material
The price of a consumer-use disc includes a
copyright fee that has been paid to the
copyright owner (in countries where the
copyright fee collection system has been
established based on their respective copyright
laws). This means that you can use these discs
to record music and other material for your
personal use. If you want to use a disc for
anything other than personal use, you must
get permission from the copyright owner
(note that copyright laws vary from country to
country; check the copyright-related laws in
your particular country for more informa-
tion).
