Connect the MD IN/AUX1 jack on the main unit to the headphone/

the remote control.

by pressing the MD

The disc name will be displayed along with the recordable number of
tracks and time. Any extra time on the disc will also be displayed.
5 Press the MD
0

I
If the MiniDisc to be recorded from has track names, "NAME READ-
ING" will flash and then the track names will be lit and recorded.
I
If the playback MiniDisc has a disc name, "disc name"will be
displayed and record. After all of the tracks are recorded, the unit will
stop automatically.
To record from a track in the middle of an MD to the last

Notes:
Before using the MD

will be used.
I
If the MiniDisc to be recorded on already has a disc name, the disc
name cannot be recorded over. If you want to record a new disc
name , you must erase the existing disc name before entering a new
disc name. (Page 37)
I
When a playback-only MiniDisc is played, "Can't COPY NAME" will be
displayed, and the sound will be recorded but the disc name and the
track names will not be recorded.
I
If a track is very short, it may be impossible to record all of the track
name .
I
Both the disc name and each of the track names, you contain up to
100 characters (including spaces).
I
The volume, equalizer, and signal level will be adjusted automatically.
I
It is better to use the AC adaptor for the portable MD player. The
recording may be stopped if the batteries run down while recording.
I
If you only want to record a particular track, or if you start recording
from a track in the middle of the disc, the recordable time will not be
displayed. If the recordable time on the target MiniDisc is insufficient,
the recording will stop in the middle of a track.
I
The shorter the track names are, the shorter the period of time that
"NAME READING" will flash.
I
If the MiniDisc has a scratch or is dirty , the disc name and the track
names may not be recorded. In such a case,restart the recording
again, or add the disc and track names using the DISC NAME function
and the TRACK NAME function, after you are through recording.
