Discs
Playable discs
Please use CD discs bearing the “COMPACT disc DIGITAL
AUDIO” logo.
CD-R and CD-RW discs properly recorded and finalized in
audio CD format.
The main unit can play the above discs without an adapter. Other
discs are not available.
If you attempt to play discs other than the above, a loud
noise may occur to damage the speakers or your hearing.
Do not play such discs.
< Copy-protected discs, DualDiscs and other discs which do not
conform to the CD standard may not play back correctly in this
player. If you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and
its subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any consequences or
guarantee the quality of reproduction. If you experience problems
with such non-standard discs, you should contact the producers of
the disc.
About CD-R and CD-RW discs
The main unit can play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in audio CD
format (CD-DA).
Cautions for use
< Do not use cracked discs as doing so may cause a malfunction.
< Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs are not recommended, as the
label side might be sticky and damage the unit.
< Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do not
use any protective coating spray.
< Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on the
label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may
cause damage to the recorded side.
< Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD stabilizers
with this unit will damage the mechanism and cause them to
malfunction.
< Do not use CDs with an irregular shape (octagonal, heart shaped,
business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:
Handling disc
< Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side
uppermost. (Compact discs can be played or recorded only on
one side.)
< Scratches, fingerprints, dirt, etc. on the signal recording surface
(without labels) may cause a playback error. Be careful when
handling.
< To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center
of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
< Remember to finalize a disc recorded with the CD recorder.
< Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of the
recording, some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be playable.
< If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CD-R/
CD-RW disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or
contact the disc manufacturer directly.

CD-R and CD-RW discs bearing the "DIGITAL AUDIO" logo
How to remove the disc How to hold the disc
Storing disc
< Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust and
scratches that could cause the laser pickup to “skip”.
< Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and
temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
< CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat
and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they are
not stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on them, and
away from sources of heat such as radiators or heat-generating
electrical devices.
< Dirt on the disc may cause the sound to skip or lower the sound
quality. Always keep it clean when storing.
Maintenance
< Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially (from the
center hole outward towards the outer edge) with a soft, dry cloth.
< Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or
fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do
irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic surface.

CD-R and CD-RW
A CD-R disc can be recorded only once. Recorded tracks cannot be
erased. However, if some recording time is still available, additional
recording is possible. If you finish recording and finalize the CD-R
disc, it can be played with a normal CD player. (Some CD players
may not be compatible.)
On a CD-RW disc, even if no recording time is available, you can
erase tracks already recorded and record tracks repeatedly. You can
erase all tracks at once or the last track only. However, you cannot
erase only tracks in the middle of the disc.
CD-RW discs can only be played with compatible CD players.
Serial Copy Management System
This unit is in compliance with the Serial Copy Management
System standard. This standard has been established to restrict
digital-to-digital copying to only the first generation. The basic
rules governing this system are as follows:
Rule 1
A digital recording is possible from a digital source such as a CD,
DAT or MD onto a recordable CD-R, CD-RW, MD or DAT through
a digital input connection. However, further digital to- digital
recording is prohibited for the second and later generations.
Rule 2
When an analog source such as an analog disc or FM broadcast
is digitally recorded by using a CD-R, CD-RW, MD or DAT, this
recorded source can be digitally recorded on another CD-R,
CD-RW, MD or DAT. However, further digital copying is prohibited.
In the stop mode, hold down the CLEAR button for more than 2
seconds.
If one of the following buttons is pressed, the programmed contents
will also be cleared.

You can add tracks to an unfinalized recordable disc. Once
finalized, a CD-R disc is “fixed” and behaves in the same way as a
CD. Finalized CD-RW discs, however, can be unfinalized, erased and
re-recorded.
<
When the auto track function is used, the tracks are separated
based on the specified level. Therefore, if a silent part is contained
at the beginning or in the middle of a track, the playback time may
not be the same as the actual length of the track.
<
When track numbers are added to continuous music such as live
performances, the sound is cut a moment.
<
If a disc recorded with this unit is played with another player,
noises may occur when the track changes.
Each time the INPUT SELECT button is pressed, the display changes
as follows:
DIGITAL (OPTICAL IN)
Select this to record a source connected to the DIGITAL IN terminal.

Recording (2)
S-LVL-60/50/40/30
Track numbers are added automatically when silence is detected.
The auto track function activates and “A-TRACK” appears. The
displayed number indicates the increment level.
The track numbers are automatically added during recording. If
a track change is detected via DIGITAL or if silence (lower than
the increment level**) continues for three seconds or longer
then the next track starts (when sound becomes louder than
the increment level) via ANALOG, and the track numbers are
automatically updated.
** Increment level
Sound level to detect “silence” to add track numbers using auto
track when recording from external devices via ANALOG or to
perform synchronous recording for digital sources such as CD, MD,
and DAT.
This instruction manual describes “silence” as the situation where
the recording source level is lower than the specified increment
level.
−60, −50, −40, and −30 dB can be selected.
A-TIME
Track numbers are added at the set time intervals. This is only
enabled when using ANALOG input.
“A-TRACK” appears on the display when the auto track function is
on. The number shows the time increment used. Track numbers
will be added automatically during recording. Use the skip
(.//) buttons to set the time interval for adding track
numbers. The interval can be set to 1–10 minutes in one-minute
increments.
The track number will not change if the next track started after
analog audio input was silent (less than the set increment level) for
3 or more seconds.
If track numbers are not properly added
When you record sources with interference via ANALOG, track
numbers may not be added if the increment level is lower than the
interference level. In this case, set the increment level higher than
the interference level.
If there is little interference and the track starts with a small sound
resulting in the beginning of the recorded track being truncated,
set the increment level lower.

respectively. When the power is turned on, the setting is –60dB for
DIGITAL, and –50dB for ANALOG.
< The setting is stored until the power is turned off.
< If a CD is recorded via DIGITAL, the track numbers are added based
on the CD's digital signals. There is usually no need to change the
increment level.
< In digital recording, even if the auto track function is activated, track
numbers may not be added depending on the digital source player.
In such a case, add track numbers manually (see page 19).
< When you record digital broadcasts or other sources without
track numbers, track numbers are not added even if the auto track
function is activated. To add a track number, press the RECORD
button while recording a track.
< When you record classical music or other sources containing silent
parts via ANALOG, track numbers may not be properly added even
if the auto track function is activated. To add a track number in this
case, deactivate the auto track function, and press the RECORD
button while recording a track.
< When you record a record or other sources with much
interference, more track numbers than expected may be added
unintentionally.
< The AUTO/MANUAL button cannot be used during recording.
< You cannot record if “MONITOR” appears on the display. In that
case, reload a recordable disc, wait a few seconds until “NO TOC”
and “CD-R” (or “CD-RW”) indicators light on the display, then press
the RECORD button again.

Synchronous Recording
The convenient synchronous recording function automatically starts
recording when receiving analog or digital signals from an externally
connected device such as a CD player and MD deck, and stops
recording when signal reception is complete.
For CD, MD, or DAT, synchronous recording starts when a digital
signal is detected, which is the beginning of a track. Synchronous
recording stops if there is a period where the sound is quieter than
the specified increment level lasting five seconds.
For digital sources other than the above or analog sources,
synchronous recording starts when a sound louder than the
specified increment level is detected. Synchronous recording stops
if there is a period where the sound is quieter than the specified
increment level lasting 8 seconds.
