*1 All minidiscs contain a Table of Contents (TOC) in addition 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 charac-
ter information, that cannot be rewritten.

*2 In addition to the TOC, minidiscs also contain a special User’s Table of

Contents (UTOC) that contains track number, track length, and charac-
ter information, that can be rewritten.

Memory Backup for the MD Recorder Section

The memory contents are held for approximately one day with
the power plug pulled from the receptacle. In case of long
power failures or long times with the plug pulled from the re-
ceptacle, the information in regard to recording or editing (re-
corded when the minidisc is removed) may be erased or de-
stroyed) before recording on the minidisc. Once the informa-
tion has disappeared, it can not be recovered.
After recording or editing, always remove the minidisc to record
the recording or editing information.
