Precautions
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall
into the cabinet, unplug the deck and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
On power sources
Before operating the deck, check that
the operating voltage of the deck is
identical with your local power
supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear
of the deck.
The unit is not disconnected from the
AC power source (mains) as long as it
is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the unit itself has been turned off.
If you are not going to use the deck
for a long time, be sure to disconnect
the deck from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord, grasp
the plug itself; never pull the cord.
AC power cord must be changed only
at the qualified service shop.
On operation
If the deck is brought directly from a
cold to a warm location, or is placed in a
very damp room, moisture may
condense on the lenses inside the deck.
Should this occur, the deck may not
operate properly. In this case, remove
the MD and leave the deck turned on
for about an hour until the moisture
evaporates.
On the MiniDisc cartridge
Do not open the shutter to expose the
MD.
Do not place the cartridge where it
will be subject to extremes of
sunlight, temperature, moisture or
dust.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls
with a soft cloth slightly moistened with
a mild detergent solution. Do not use

Recording on MDsRecording on MDs
When recording from DAT or satellite broadcasts
with the INPUT switch set at the respective digital
position, the deck automatically marks a track
number whenever the sampling frequency of the
input signal changes regardless of the Setup Menu 02
setting.
z You can mark track numbers during or after
recording
For details, see “Marking Track Numbers While
Recording” (page 13) and “Dividing Recorded Tracks”
(page 31).
When “TOC Writing” flashes in the display
The deck is currently updating the Table Of Contents
(TOC). Do not move the deck or pull out the AC
power cord. Changes to an MD made through
recording are saved only when you update the TOC by
ejecting the MD or changing the deck to standby by
pressing the 1/u switch.
The MD deck uses the SCMS (Serial Copy
Management System on page 41)
MDs recorded through digital input connector cannot
be copied onto other MDs or DAT tapes through the
digital output connector.
When the deck is recording or in recording pause,
digital signals input through one of the digital input
connectors are output to the DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT
connector with the same sampling rate
To change the digital input signal to another sampling
rate for output (without recording it to an MD), use
Input Monitor Function (see page 10).
Notes on Recording
If “Protected” alternates with “C11” in the display
The MD is record-protected. Close the slot to record
on the disc (see “To protect an MD against accidental
erasure” on page 7).
If “Din Unlock” alternates with “C71” in the display
The digital program source is not connected as you
set with the INPUT switch in Step 4 on page 6.
To continue, connect the program source properly.
The program source is not on.
Turn on the program source.
Depending on the menu settings and source being
recorded, track numbers are marked in following
ways:
When recording from a CD or MD with the INPUT
switch set at a digital position (OPT or COAX) and
the source connected through the digital input
(DIGITAL OPTICAL IN or DIGITAL COAXIAL IN)
connector:
The deck automatically marks track numbers in the
same sequence as the original. If, however, a track is
repeated two or more times (e.g. by single-track
repeat play) or two or more tracks with the same
track number (e.g. from different MDs or CDs) are
played, the track or tracks are recorded as part of a
single, continuous track with a single track number.
If the source is an MD, track numbers may not be
marked for tracks of less than 4 seconds.
When recording from some CD players and multi
disc players connected through one of the digital
input connectors with the INPUT switch set at the
respective digital position:
The deck may not automatically mark track
numbers. In these cases, mark the track numbers
after recording, using the deck’s Divide Function (see
“Dividing Recorded Tracks” on page 31).
When recording from a source connected through
the LINE (ANALOG) IN jacks with the INPUT
switch set at ANALOG or when recording from a
DAT or satellite broadcast connected through one of
the digital input connectors with the INPUT switch
set at the respective digital position and “T.Mark
Off” selected in Setup Menu 02:
The source will be recorded as a single track.
Even while recording an analog source or a DAT or
satellite broadcast, you can mark track numbers if
“T.Mark LSyn” is selected in Setup Menu 02 (see
“Marking Track Numbers While Recording” on
page 13).

Starting Recording With
6 Seconds of Prestored Audio
Data (Time Machine Recording)
When recording from an FM or satellite broadcast, the
first few seconds of material are often lost due to the
time it takes you to ascertain the contents and press the
record button. To prevent the loss of this material, the
Time Machine Recording Function constantly stores
6 seconds of the most recent audio data in a buffer
memory so that when you begin recording the
program source using this function, the recording
actually begins with the 6 seconds of audio data stored
in the buffer memory in advance as shown in the
illustration below.
1 Do Steps 1 to 6 in “Recording on an MD” on
pages 6 and 7.
The deck changes to recording pause.
2 Start playing the program source you want to
record.
The most recent 6 seconds of audio data is stored
in the buffer memory.
3 Press AMS (or T.REC) to start Time Machine
Recording.

6 seconds of audio data stored in the buffer
memory.
