Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high

temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions

can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the

unit’s service life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and

cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting

the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor

connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not

pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains

lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric shock

or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or

malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the

power supply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable

gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted,

indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not

covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and

contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock or

damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or

reconstructed by unqualified persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source if it

is not to be used for a long time.

Some useful information about MDs and CDs

RQT5975

Before use

Types of MDs

Prerecorded MDs

These discs are for

playback only.

Recording on MDs

MDs are different to tapes

MDs give you control over how tracks are recorded and editing functions

allow you to change the contents of an MD after recording.

Unlike cassettes, you do not need to find an empty space to start

recording as all recordings start from the first available space. When the

MD fills up, you can use the editing functions to erase unneeded tracks.

You cannot record over tracks.

Limitations on digital recording

The serial copy management system (SCMS) prevents unlimited

recording of digital material.

Clear, relatively intact, digital recordings can be made when recording a

CD in this unit. So to protect the rights of the producer of the original

material, it is not possible to make a further recording from that MD to

another MD.

Analog recordings are unlimited by this system.

Shutter

Glossary of terms

Analog

This is the method that phonographic records and cassettes use to

handle sound signals.

Digital

This is the usual method used by MDs and CDs to carry and record

sound signals. Digital recording can be of very high quality.

Editing

This refers to any post-recording changes made to the MD.

Marking

This is the act of adding track marks. It can be done automatically when

recording, or it can be done manually during recording or after recording

with the editing functions (DIVIDE).

TOC

Table of contents. Information stored on the MD about the tracks and

times.

Track marks

These marks separate tracks. There can be up 254 marks on one MD.

They can be inserted automatically or manually during recording, and

they can be added (DIVIDE) or removed (COMBINE) with the editing

functions after recording.

UTOC

User table of contents. This is information the user can edit, such as text

and track positions.

The message “UTOC Writing” appears on the display after recording and

editing.

Care and storage

Label MDs only as recommended. Extra labels and exposed adhesive

can cause malfunctions.

Do not open the shutter, and close it immediately if it accidentally opens.

Never touch the disc inside the MD cartridge.

Keep your MDs out of direct sunlight, humid and dusty places, and away

from the direct heat of heating appliances.

Sound Cruise

Recording MDs

Apart from the time limitations, it is

possible to record up to 254 tracks on an

MD.

MDCD MD

(Long Play)

Advances in digital technology have now made it possible to record two

to four times the amount of stereo material on an MD.

Now you can record a maximum of 160 minutes of audio on an

80-minute MD using LP2 recording mode and 320 minutes using LP4

recording mode.

SP: Standard recording mode

LP2: Double the amount of material.

LP4: Four times amount of material.

The three modes can be used on the same MD.

Protecting your recordings

Move the switch to open the write protect hole. Close the hole when you

want to record or edit the MD again.

Record protected

closed

Note when recording, editing, and titling

These operations are not complete until “UTOC Writing” and the

“” indicator stop flashing on the display. Be careful not to

interrupt the power supply otherwise these operations will not be

completed and the disc itself can be damaged.

UTOC

CD selection and care

Choose discs with this mark: (a)

Playing CD-R and CD-RW

This unit can play CD-DA (digital audio) format audio CD-R and CD-RW

that have been finalized upon completion of recording.

It may not be able to play some CD-R or CD-RW due to the condition of

the recording.

Finalizing is a process that enables CD-R/CD-RW players to play

audio CD-R and CD-RW.

Do not;

¡ use irregularly shaped discs. (b)

¡ attach extra labels and stickers.

¡ use discs with labels and stickers that are coming off or with adhesive

exuding from under labels and stickers. (

¡ attach scratch-proof covers or any other kind of accessory.

¡ write anything on the CD.

¡ clean CDs with liquids. (Wipe with a soft, dry cloth.)

¡ use CDs printed with label printers available on the market.

Limitations on high-speed recording

This unit uses a copy management system to limit the use of high-speed

recording to protect the rights of the producers of music software.

¡ Some discs cannot be recorded at four times normal speed. CD-RW

are recorded a two times normal speed.

¡ You cannot use high-speed recording with program play, repeat play,

or random play.

¡ You cannot adjust the recording level when using high-speed

recording.

¡ Depending on the condition of the CD, some skipping of sound or

noise will be recorded to the MD. These problems can be relieved in

some cases by carefully cleaning the CD and then recording it at

normal speed.

¡ Depending on the signal level on a CD, some tracks will take longer to

record than others, even if they are the same length.

You cannot use high-speed recording to record the same track

twice within 74 minutes of starting recording.

¡ Even if you stop recording part way through, you cannot start

recording the same track again.

¡ If, for example, you complete recording in 20 minutes, you must wait a

further 54 minutes before using high-speed recording to record the

track again. You can record the track at normal speed.

You can record up to 50 tracks.

¡ If you finish recording 50 tracks within 74 minutes, you cannot start

recording the fifty-first track until 74 minutes have passed since you

started recording the first track.

¡ When you finish recording the 50th track, the message “PLEASE

WAIT KK min” (“KK” is the number of minutes) appears on the

display for a few seconds. “UTOC Writing” then flashes on the display

and recording ends.

¡ If you try to start recording before the waiting period is up, “PLEASE

WAIT KK min” appears again.

¡ A group can be made from one track.

¡ A single track cannot be put into more than one group.

¡ Groups are not ordered in the order you create them. They are

ordered by track numbers.

¡ If you create groups with this unit and then edit on a unit that is

incompatible with group functions, the group information may be

rendered unusable.

¡ The disc title may not be displayed correctly on a unit that is

incompatible with group functions.

¡ After using editing functions (\ pages 32 to 35) on a disc with groups,
