*1All minidiscs contain a Table of Contents (TOC) in addi-

tion to sound signals. The TOC is similar to the table of
contents in a book and contains information, such as
track numbers, track length, and character information,
that cannot be rewritten.

*2In addition to the TOC, minidiscs also contain a special

User’s Table of Contents (UTOC) that contains track
number, track length, and character information, that
can be rewritten.

Memory Backup for the MD Recorder Section

The contents of the memory are not stored on the
disc if the power cord is unplugged.
If there is a power failure or if the power cord is
unplugged, the recording or editing information
(normally recorded when the minidisc is removed)
may be erased or destroyed before it is recorded on
the minidisc. Once the information has disappeared,
it can not be recovered.
After recording or editing, always remove the
minidisc to record the recording or editing informa-
tion.
