The MD is housed in a cartridge, so you can handle it without
worrying about dust and fingerprints. Even so, a dirty or warped
cartridge may cause malfunction. Always remember the follow-
ing precautions so you can enjoy high-quality sound for a long
time.
Do not touch the disc in the cartridge directly with your
fingers.
Do not open the shutter by hand. Doing so may damage the disc.
Storage location
Avoid storing MDs in a place subject to direct sunlight, high
temperature, or high humidity.
Regular care
Wipe off dust and dirt accumulated on the cartridge surface with
a dry cloth.
Removing the halfway inserted MD
If the "self-rock function" is activated and the MD cannot be
removed, push the MD further into the MD recorder and then
press the
å button to remove the MD.
Rule 3
A recordable MD with material recorded from analog sources
(analog records or FM programs, etc.) through the line input
terminal can be copied to another recordable MD through the
digital output terminal.
However, you cannot make subsequent copies from the record-
able MD to other recordable MDs through the digital output
terminal. Subsequent copies can only be made through analog
output terminal.
When MD recorders are connected using analog terminals, the
number of dubbings is not limited.
