it with another recordable MD with fewer 
recorded tracks, or erase unnecessary tracks 
(page 18).

• There has been a power failure or the AC power 

cord has been disconnected during recording. 
Data recorded to that point may be lost. Repeat 
the recording procedure.

The deck does not perform Synchro-recording

have attempted the prescribed remedies, turn off the 
deck, then re-insert the plug into the power outlet.

The deck’s self-diagnosis function 
automatically checks the condition of the MD 
deck when an error occurs, then issues a three- 
or five-digit code and an error message on the 
display. If the code and message alternate, find
