This operation may take awhile to 
be completed.

To cancel finalising (DVD-RW only): 

• After step 4, press [STOP 

C

]. Select “Yes” using [

{

 / 

B

] and then press 

[ENTER]. Finalising is canceled and the unit switches to stop mode.

• If   appears when [STOP 

C

] is pressed, you cannot cancel finalising 

because the finalising has already reached at a critical point in its process.

• If “No” is selected and [ENTER] or [RETURN] is pressed, finalising is 

continued.

• You cannot cancel finalising a DVD-R disc once it has started.

Notes

• Finalising a disc in Video mode automatically creates a Title menu.
• You can use the unit to record or edit a disc recorded in VR mode even 

after it is finalised. After you finalise a disc recorded in Video mode, you 

cannot edit or record anything else on that disc.

• To undo the finalisation of the disc, select “Undo Finalise” at step 3.
• If you insert a DVD-RW disc finalised with this unit, “Undo Finalise” will 

appear instead of “Finalise”.

• DO NOT power off during finalising. This may result in a malfunction.
