This Recorder Can Use the
Following Discs
The recorder can use three types of discs as
follows:
Discs with the logo above (
Audio CD
) can be
played by both DECK A (the CD player
section) and DECK B (the CD-R or CD-RW
recording section) of the recorder.
Discs with the logo above (
Audio CD-R
) are
recordable only one time. When you finalize
(page 20) the disc, you can play it in either
DECK A (the CD player section) or DECK B
(the CD-R or CD-RW recording section), and
you can play it in any conventional CD player,
including home, car, and portable models (A
unfinalized disc can be played only in DECK
B). When you buy a CD-R disc, please note
that you must buy an audio CD-R disc. A CD-
R disc designed for computer use will not work
in the recorder.
Discs with the logo above (
Audio CD-RW
)
are recordable, and also re-writable. When you
finalize (page 20) the disc, you can play it in
either DECK A (the CD player section) or
DECK B (the CD-R or CD-RW recording
section), and CD-RW compatible players. They
will not play back in most current CD players
unless the player is CD-RW compatible (A
unfinalized disc can be played only in DECK
B).
When you buy a CD-RW disc, please note that
you must buy an audio CD-RW disc. A CD-
RW disc designed for computer use will not
work in the recorder.
