System limitations of
MDs
The recording system in your MD deck has
limitations described below. Note, however,
that these limitations are due to the inherent
nature of the MD recording system itself and
not to mechanical causes.
“DISC FULL” lights up before the
MD has reached the maximum
recording time (60 or 74 minutes)
When 255 tracks have been recorded on the MD,
“DISC FULL” lights up regardless of the total
recorded time. More than 255 tracks cannot be
recorded on the MD. To continue recording, erase
unnecessary tracks or use another recordable MD.
“DISC FULL” lights up before the
maximum number of tracks (255)
is reached
Fluctuations in emphasis within tracks are
sometimes interpreted as track intervals, increasing
the track count and causing “DISC FULL” to light
up.
The remaining recording time
does not increase even after
erasing numerous short tracks
Tracks shorter than 12 seconds long are not counted,
so erasing them may not increase the recording
time.
Some tracks cannot be combined
with others
Track combination may become impossible when
tracks are shorter than 12 seconds long.
The total recorded time and the
remaining time on the MD may
not reach the maximum recording
time (60 or 74 minutes)
Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds
each, no matter how short the material. The
contents recorded may thus be shorter than the
maximum recording capacity. Disc space may also
be further reduced by scratches.
Notes on MDs
•Do not open the shutter to expose the MD. Close
the shutter immediately if the shutter opens.
•Wipe the disc cartridge with a dry cloth to remove
dirt.
•Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight.
Notes on CDs
•Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the CD from the center out.
•Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static
spray intended for vinyl LPs.
•Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight.
Cleaning the cabinet
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild
detergent solution.
