Maintenance

Maintenance of the Set

When the front panel, the case, etc. becom es dirty, w ipe w ith a

soft, dry cloth. Do not use thinner, alcohol, etc., as these can

cause discoloration.

In regard to contact cleaners

Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a m alfunc-

tion. Be specially careful not to use contact cleaners containing

oil, for they m ay deform the plastic com ponent.

Reference

Beware of condensation

When water vapor comes into contact with the surface of a cold

material, condensation is produced.

Be especially careful in the following conditions:

÷When the unit is brought from a cold place to a warm place, and

there is a large temperature difference.

÷When a heater starts operating.

÷When the unit is brought from an air-conditioned place to a place of

high temperature with high humidity.

÷When there is a large difference between the internal temperature

of the unit and the ambient temperature, or in conditions where

condensation occurs easily.

If condensation occurs, correct operation may not be possible, or

the unit may not function correctly.

This is not a malfunction, however, and the unit should be dried-out.

(To do this, turn the ON/STANDBY key ON and leave the unit as it is

for several hours.)

MD system

The Mini Disc system has the features as sum m arized in the follow ing.

1 Like CD (Com pact Disc), playback can be started from any position. (Random access)

2 It uses a disc w ith a diam eter of 64 m m that is accom m odated in a cartridge.

3 Tw o types of discs can be used.

4 Up to 74 m inutes of recording or playback is possible using high-efficiency coding technology.

5 Counterm easure against vibration is taken using sem iconductor m em ory chip.

Tw o Mini Disc types

There are tw o types of Mini Disc, the one designed exclusively for

playback and the other w hich is both recordable and playable.

Playback-only Mini Disc

Recordable Mini Disc

This type of MD can be used only for playback, and is used by the

commercially-available music MD software packages. The playback-only

MDis an opticaldisc like the Compact Disc (CD). The signals are recorded

as the presence or absence of small pits and read out by an optical, non-

contact pickup.

This MD is a magneto-optical disc which can be recorded by magnetic

field modulation. To record signals, laser light is irradiated from the

bottom side of the magneto-optical disc and magnetic field is applied

from the upper side of it.

Prpasection

High-efficiency coding technology “ATRAC”

Sound-skip prevention m em ory

The Mini Disc has only a half the size of the Compact Disc but provides

the same recording time. This is made possible by ATRAC*, a newly

developed high-efficiency coding technology.

During playback, this unit always stores signals in memory temporarily

to prevent sound from being skipped in case of vibration. As a result,

even when the data from the optical pickup is interrupted due to

vibration, etc., the music will not be interrupted because the memory

holds the data for several seconds.

Basection

* ATRAC: Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding

The ATRAC compresses the music data to about 1/5 the amount of data

which would be obtained with conventional technology, by cutting off

the sound components which do not pose problem in audition even

when they are not present. This has made it possible to record or play up

to 74 minutes.
