MINIDISC SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Even if the maximum recording time of a MiniDisc has
not been reached, "TOC FULL
∗ " may be displayed.
(
∗
:Number or Symbol)
Even if the maximum recording time of a MiniDisc has
not been reached, "DISC FULL" may be displayed.
Even if several short tracks are erased, the remaining
recording time may not show an increase.
The total of the recorded time and time remaining on
a disc may not add up to the maximum possible rec-
ording time.
Two tracks may not be combined in editing.
If recorded tracks are fast reversed or fast forwarded,
the sound may skip.
In the MD system, the delimiter of the recording area on an MD
is programmed in a TOC. If partial erasing, recording and editing
are repeated several times, TOC information will fill up, even
though the number of tracks has not reached the limit (255
tracks), and further recording will be impossible. (If you use the
all erase function, this MD can be used from the beginning.)
If there is any flaw on the MiniDisc, that part is automatically
excluded from the space available for recording. Therefore, the
recording time becomes shorter.
When the remaining recording time of a disc is displayed, short
tracks less than 12 seconds long may not be included in the
total.
A cluster (about 2 seconds) is normally the minimum unit of rec-
ording. So, even if a track is less than 2 seconds long, it will use
about 2 seconds of space on the disc. Therefore, the time actually
available for recording may be less than the remaining time dis-
played.
If there are scratches on discs, those sections will be automat-
ically avoided (no recording will be placed in those sections).
Therefore, the recording time will be reduced.
For MiniDiscs on which repeated recording and editing operations
were performed, the COMBINE function may not work.
A track recorded from a CD (digital recording) and a track re-
corded from a radio or other equipment (analogue recording) can-
not be combined.
An MD which has been recorded or edited repeatedly may skip
during fast reverse or fast forward.
TROUBLESHOOTING
■
If a problem occurs
If this unit functions abnormally during operation, first check the following items. If the unit continues to function abnormally,
or if an abnormality appears other than listed below, turn off the player’s power and disconnect the AC power plug, then

General
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY
● The clock is wrong. ● Did a power failure occur? ● Try setting it again.
● When a button is pressed, the unit
does not respond. ● Set this unit to the stand-by mode and
then turn it back on. Then, retry the
operation.
● Unplug the power lead from the AC
socket. Then, plug it in again and retry
the operation.
● No sound is heard. ● Is the volume level is set to "0"?
● Are the headphones connected?
● Are the speaker wires disconnected?
● Were the speaker wires short-circuited
whilst being connected?
● Increase the volume level.
● Disconnect the headphones.
● Connect the wires securely.
● Unplug the power lead from the AC
socket and then plug it in again.
● Radios make unusual noise or the pic-
ture on the TV screen is distorted. ● When a radio or TV which uses an in-
door aerial is placed near the unit, the
picture on the TV screen may be dis-
torted or the radio may not function
properly. ● It is recommended that you use an ex-
ternal aerial.
