• When you record on a 1GB Hi-MD disc,
connect the AC power adaptor to the recorder,
charge the rechargeable battery fully (battery
level indication shows
), or use a new
alkaline dry battery (battery level indication
shows
). When you attempt to start
recording on a 1GB Hi-MD disc, “NOT
ENOUGH POWER TO REC” may appear
and recording cannot be done even if the
battery level indication shows sufficient
remaining power while the recorder is stopped
or playing. This is because of a mechanism
that disables recording when the remaining
battery power is estimated by the recorder to
be insufficient due to the high power
consumption required for 1GB Hi-MD disc
recording.
• Make sure to place the recorder at a stable,
vibration-free place during recording.
• If you start recording before the x indication
appears in the display, the first few seconds of
the material may not be recorded. Make sure
the
x indication is displayed before you start
recording.
• Do not move or jog the recorder or disconnect
the power source while recording, or while
“DATA SAVE” or “SYSTEM FILE
WRITING” is displayed. If you do, the data
recorded up to that point may not be recorded
to the disc, or data on the disc may be
damaged.
• Recording cannot be done when the disc does
not have enough space for recording.
• If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the
battery is removed or becomes exhausted or
the AC power adaptor is disconnected) during
a recording or editing operation, or while
“DATA SAVE” or “SYSTEM FILE
WRITING” is displayed, then it will not be
possible to open the lid until power is restored.

• The recorder is factory set to make a new
group whenever recording is done. If you do
not want to make a group, set “Group REC” to
“Off” (page 37).
• To start recording from a specific point on the
disc, pause the recorder at the desired point,
and then start recording from that point.
• You can monitor the sound during recording.
Changing the volume level will not affect the
recording level.
