During finalizing, the table of contents (TOC) is written to the
disc.
Finalizing is a simple procedure that is necessary in order to:
- be able to play recordings on a CD PLAYER,
- avoid further unwanted recordings on a disc,
- avoid erasure of tracks on a CDRW,
- Write CD text on a CDR(W).
Auto finalizing
Auto finalizing is possible when using the MAKE CD recording
function.

operating commands.
- When a CDR has been finalized, no more recordings can be
added.

- When unfinalizing a CDRW disc with text available, this text
will be transferred to the CD recorder memory. However, if
the text memory is full, the message
MEMORY
FULL/FINALIZE CD will be displayed. Text must be
erased, stored for other discs, or another disc must be
finalized in order to create space in the memory.
