1 – Introduction—About discs

About discs

CD-R

CD-RW

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch the front side.

To protect the disc, avoid placing it in the following locations:

• In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a heater.

• In a place which is damp or dirty.

• In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as

near a window.

• Do not attach a piece of paper or sticker on the label side of disc. When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD label with paste protruded from the edge or when a disc has a trace of such a sticky object, do not attempt to play the disc. If such a disc is played on the CD recorder, impossibility of taking out the disc or other malfunction may result.

• Do not use a disc with a special shape. Do not attempt to play a disc with a special shape such as a heart-shaped disc or octagonal disc. Otherwise the equipment malfunction may result.

Always keep the disc surface clean.

When cleaning the disc surface, always be sure to use a special compact disc cleaner and wipe as shown below.

• Do not use conventional record cleaner for analog records, as this will adversely affect the disc surface. Store discs properly by placing them in their disc cases.

What is ﬁnalizing?

Even after audio data is recorded on a CD-R or CDRW disc, it cannot be played back on a conventional CD player until the ﬁnal TOC recorded on the disc. The process of recording this TOC data is called “ﬁnalizing”.

No further recording can be performed on a ﬁnalized disc. However in the case of a CD-RW, the disc can be “un-ﬁnalized” to allow additional recording (

recorded data, such as the number and playing times of the songs
