In case of difficulty
What appears to be a malfunction may not always be serious. If your unit should not perform as expected, consult the table
below to see if the problem can be corrected before seeking help from your dealer or service representative.
Operation to reset
The microprocessor may fall into malfunction (impossibility to operate
erroneous display, etc.) when the power cord is unplugged while power
is ON or due to an external factor. In this case, execute the following
procedure to reset the microprocessor and return it to normal condition.
With the POWER key left to ON, unplug the power cord
from the power outlet then, while holding the eject (0)
key depressed, plug the power cord again.
Symptom
÷More than 255 tracks (track No. 256 or more) cannot be recorded. (There
may be also cases in which recording is impossible while the track
number is less than 256.)
In such a case, the REMAIN time display shows “0:00”.
÷The remaining time display becomes “0:00” when the actual total
remaining time of the Mini Disc is less than 12 seconds. The recordable
time display changes when the total time of the erased track exceeds
12 seconds.
÷When a Mini Disc has been subjected to repeated editing, the remaining
time may not increase even after a short track has been erased.
÷A track created as a result of an editing operation may sometimes be
impossible to be combined with another track.
÷As recording is performed on a minimum recording basis of 2 seconds,
the displayed time may not coincide with the consumed disc capacity.
÷Sound interruption may occur due to a combination of various factors,
and it is not a malfunction.
÷A short track may be created depending on the contents of the recorded
source (CD, for example).
÷“READING” is displayed for a longer period than usual when a brand-
new recordable Mini Disc (a virgin disc) is loaded.
÷The Mini Disc in use has been processed with repeated editing or
contains a large number of tracks.
÷As the title recording areas are used on a per-7-character basis, the total
number of input characters may be less than 1792.
Cause
÷Please note that resetting the microprocessor clears the contents
stored in, it returns the microprocessor to the condition when it left
the factory.

erased.
Tracks cannot be combined.

fast forward or fast backward operation.
Tracks are not numbered correctly.
The period in which “READING” is displayed is abnormally long.
