Finalize
“NO TOC” and “REC” indicators blink, and the remaining
time for the finalizing operation appears in the display.
When the operation has been finished, the NO TOC indicator
turns off and the display returns to the track/time display.
During finalizing, no button works.
Never turn the power off nor unplug the power cord.

Although finalized CD-R discs may be played on ordinary CD
players, remember that finalized CD-RW discs may not play
on ordinary CD players.
This section deals with the actions taken after recording.
Once finalized, CD-R discs are truly final. No more tracks can
be recorded on them. By contrast, CD-RW discs can be
“unfinalized”, and if there is space, further material can be
recorded on them.
Finalizing
As has been explained earlier, in order for a disc to become a
standard CD, it must have a Table of Contents (TOC) written
to it. This process is known as finalizing.
Press the CD button to select “CD”.

Load an unfinalized (recordable) disc.
2
Press the FINALIZE button in the stop mode.
3
Press the PLAY (y) button to start finalizing.

“FIn--d” appears on the display.
<
To cancel the finalizing process, press the STOP button (H).
