The digital input is interrupted.

The data (CD-ROM, etc.) provided
cannot be recorded.

The source player was already playing
when the DIGITAL SYNCHRO button
was pressed.

The unit is making preparations for
recording.

Because the disc was left in the unit after
recording and the power plug was
unplugged later, the track number and
recording time data have been cleared
without being recorded on the disc.

No more recording is possible because
the available recording time of the disc
has been used fully or 99 tracks have
already been recorded on the disc.

Check if the digital input cable is not disconnected and if the
power of the source player is on.
Check whether the source is a regular music source.

Stop playing the source player.
In a while, "1-SYNC" or "AL-SYNC" is displayed, and the unit
is set to the synchro recording standby mode.

Wait until these messages disappear.

While "REPAIR" is displayed, the track number and
recording time data are repaired by tracking the recorded
area. Further recording or finalization is possible whenever
the display returns to the previous condition.
Tracing of the recorded area takes about 40 minutes if the
disc has been recorded fully.

Replace the disc with a new one.
Erase a CD-RW disc.
