Erasing Discs (CD-RW only)
CD-RW discs can be erased using the three Erasure functions: Last Track Erase, Disk
Erase, and Initialize Erase. Last Track Erase erases the control data of last recorded track
on unfinalized discs. Tracks can be erased one at a time by repeating the Track Erase
function. Disk Erase erases the control data of all tracks quickly, so the entire disc can
be used again. Initialize erases not only the control data of all tracks but the entire pro-
gram area too. Initialize Erase is recommended for discs that were previously used to
store data tracks.

Auto Unfinalize allows you to record additional tracks to finalized CD-RW discs. When
a finalized CD-RW disc is loaded, and a new track is selected for recording in the nor-
mal way, the disc is unfinalized automatically and recording carried out as normal. It
takes about one minute to unfinalize a disc, during which time “WAIT” appears on the
display.
