Getting Started  
Checking the Supplied Accessories  
Connecting the Unit  
Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories.  
The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the pieces  
supplied.  
You need to connect this unit to an amplifier/receiver and some  
playback components such as CD player, Compact Component  
System.  
• Remote Control (1)  
• Batteries (2)  
The illustration on the next page indicates a typical connection with  
a CD player and an amplifier.  
• Audio cord (2)  
• Optical digital cord (1)  
Remember NOT to turn on the power until all the connections  
have been completed.  
If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.  
Analog Connection Å  
• For recording on this unit: Connect an audio cord between the  
ANALOG IN jack on this unit and Line Output jack on the  
playback equipment — e.g. AUX-OUT on an amplifier or LINE  
OUT on the CD player.  
• For playback or recording on the other unit: Connect an audio  
cord between the ANALOG OUT jack on this unit and Line  
Input jack (e.g. AUX-IN, CD-R IN, TAPE-IN) on an amplifier or  
another analog recording component.  
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control  
Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.  
• When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at  
the remote sensor on the unit (at a distant of up to 23 feet — 7 m).  
1. On the back of the remote control, remove the  
battery cover.  
Digital Connection — Coaxial ı  
Connect a coaxial digital cord between the COAXIAL OUT  
terminal on this unit and the Digital Coaxial Input terminal (e.g.  
COAXIAL IN) on an amplifier or another digital recording  
component.  
Digital Connection — Optical Ç  
Before connecting optical cables, disconnect the protective caps  
from the OPTICAL IN and OUT terminals.  
2. Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity:  
(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).  
• For recording on this unit: Connect an optical digital cord  
between the OPTICAL IN terminal on this unit and the Digital  
Optical Output terminal on a playback component — e.g.  
OPTICAL OUT on the CD player.  
• For playback or recording on the other unit: Connect an optical  
digital cord between the OPTICAL OUT terminal on this unit  
and the Digital Optical Input terminal (e.g. OPTICAL IN) on an  
amplifier or another digital recording component.  
3. Replace the cover.  
Notes:  
• It is not required to do all three connections.You can connect your  
components and this unit using only one or two of the connections  
listed above.  
• It is recommended to use one of the digital connections to obtain  
the optimum recording quality on this unit.  
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace  
the batteries. Use two AAA/R03(UM-4) type dry-cell batteries.  
CAUTION:  
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:  
• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity: (+)  
to (+) and (–) to (–).  
• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may  
differ in voltage.  
• Always replace both batteries at the same time.  
• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

Recording on a CD-R/CD-RW  
Before You Start Recording  
• This unit has been designed to record on the following discs — both blank and unfinalized CD Recordable (CD-R) and  
CD Rewritable (CD-RW).  
It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the  
owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any literary, dramatic, musical,  
or artistic embodied therein.  
• The sampling frequency rate converter built in the unit allows you to record a digital source if its sampling frequency is 32 kHz,  
44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz. If no playback component is connected to the OPTICAL IN terminal or if the sampling frequency of the  
connected component is not 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz, “UN LOCK” appears on the display (no recording is possible).  
The sampling frequency indicator (32, 44, 48) lights up to indicate the sampling frequency of the incoming signals through the

You cannot record the entire Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround signals through the OPTICAL IN terminal.  
• When you record onto an unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW, its recordings are not erased or overwritten. The recording starts from the  
point following the last recorded track on the disc.  
If you want to record on such a CD-RW from its beginning, you have to erase its contents first (see “Erasing the Tracks on a CD-  
RW” on page 14. This is only possible on CD-RWs).  
• The recording level is automatically set correctly when recording through the digital terminals, so it is not affected by the REC  
LEVEL control.  
• When an unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW is loaded, this unit checks the disc and automatically adjusts the laser for optimum  
recording setting — Optimum Power Control (OPC).

Finalizing a Disc — CD-R/CD-RW  
Erasing the Tracks on a CD-RW  
Finalization is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW.  
“Finalizing a disc” means to finish writing the TOC (Table of  
Contents) on the recorded disc. Only after this process is completed,  
a recorded CD-R or CD-RW can be played back on a CD player  
compatible with CD-R/CD-RW.  
You can erase a track or all the tracks on a CD-RW.  
One-track erasure: You can erase the last track.  
Disc erasure:You can erase all the tracks at once.

Unfinalizing a Disc — CD-RW  
1 Load a disc — either a finalized or unfinalized  
CD-RW.  
Once a CD-R has been finalized, no more recording will be made on  
the disc. However, by erasing the TOC (Table of Contents), you can  
record on a recorded CD-RW. This erasing process of the TOC is  
called “Unfinalization.”  
• Unfinalization is just to erase the TOC only, but not the recorded  
music signals on the disc.  
• If the disc is already finalized, first unfinalize the disc. See  
“Unfinalizing a Disc — CD-RW” on the left column.

Additional Information  
OPC (Optimum Power Control)  
Glossary  
OPC is a function that checks the loaded disc and automatically  
adjusts the laser for optimum recording setting before recording  
through the Digital Optical Input terminal.  
Finalization  
This is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW.  
“Finalizing a disc” means to finish writing the TOC (Table of  
Contents) on the recorded disc. Only after this process is completed,  
a recorded CD-R or CD-RW can be played back on a CD player  
compatible with CD-R/CD-RW.  
TOC (Table of Contents)  
TOC is a kind of disc information containing sub-data (track  
number, playing time, etc.) that enables us to search for tracks  
quickly on the disc.  
To write the TOC on a CD-R or CD-RW, you need to finalize the  
disc.  
Sampling Frequency  
When analog signals are converted into digital signals, they are  
divided into many points and digitized. This dividing method is  
called “sampling.” The sampling frequency indicates how many  
points one second is divided into – for example, for CD sound, one  
second is divided into 44100 points since its sampling frequency is  
44.1 kHz.  
3:12  
4:15  
6:05  
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)  
Digital audio components, such as CD recorder, MD (Mini-Disc)  
recorder and DAT (Digital Audio Tape) recorder, can exchange  
audio signals in the digital forms through digital input/output  
terminals. The digital audio components allow digital copy of music  
signals with little deterioration. This has made it necessary to have a  
copy restriction rule for protecting the copyright, and “SCMS  
(Serial Copy Management System)” has been established as a  
result.  
Track mark  
When playing a disc, you can move among the tracks.  
You can do this because there is a mark recorded at the beginning of  
each track enabling you to locate the track. This mark is called a  
track mark” and the portion between two adjacent track marks is  
called a “track.”  
To protect the copyright, the SCMS allows only first-generation  
digital copies to be made from premastered software (like CDs or  
prerecorded MDs).  
Unfinalization  
This means to erase the TOC (Table of Contents) on a finalized CD-  
RW. This makes it possible to erase the recorded data from the CD-  
RW.  
If you try to record from such copied discs on this unit, the  
PROHIBIT indicator will light up on the display.

Maintenance  
Moisture condensation  
Handling Discs  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following  
How to handle discs  
cases:  
• After starting the heater.  
• When the unit is moved from the extremely hot place to the  
extremely cold place.  
When removing a disc from its case, press down  
the center holder of the case and lift the disc out,  
holding it by the edges.  
• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not  
touch its recording surface.  
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert  
the disc around the center holder (with the  
printed surface facing up).  
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, eject the  
disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture  
evaporates.  
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after  
use.  
CAUTIONS:  
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape — like a heart or flower;  
otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.  
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place  
them in a place subject to high temperature and humidity. Do not  
leave them in a car.  
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner,  
spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.  
To keep discs clean  
A dirty disc may not play correctly. If a disc  
does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a  
straight line from center to edge.  
To play new discs  
New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer  
edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc.  
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or  
ballpoint pen, etc.
