Protecting against accidental erasure
When more data is written to a previously recorded
(full) disc, the older data may be lost. To guard
against accidentally erasing important data, slide the
write protect switch as shown in the illustration.
When a write-protected disc is inserted into the DKR-
700/700P, recording operations will not be able to be
performed. In order to re-record a disc, return the
write protect switch to its original position.
Labeling discs
Attach the supplied label to the disc, and make a note
of the disc’s contents. If the label is full, remove the
old label and affix a new one. If new labels are affixed
on top of old labels, or if the label is not aligned in its
proper position, malfunctions may occur, and the
disc drive may be damaged.
