During Timer-off recording, the unit keeps
beeping to indicate the state of the unit and
stops beeping when the recording is
completed. When you turn the ignition to
the ACC position and attach the front panel
again, "REC Complete!" appears on the
display if the recording is completed
successfully.
Notes
• Be sure not to start the engine of your car again
during Timer-off recording. Recording may fail.
• When an optional TV/video unit is connected,
the monitor stays on during Timer-off recording
or REC Continue mode. Turn the monitor off
before leaving the car to reduce the likelihood of
battery drain or theft.
• Frequent use of the Timer-off recording feature
may cause battery drain. Make sure that the
battery is well charged.
• The power antenna remains extended during
Timer-off recording. (The antenna retracts when
the recording is over.)
• The sound of the radio will be recorded on the
MD as you hear it during reception (including
any noise, distortion, and missing sound).
Recording the audio sound of a TV
program or video
You can record the audio sound of a TV
program or video in the same manner as with
a radio program. For selecting the source, see
"Watching the TV" or "Watching a video" on

Editing an MD

By using the editing functions described
below, you can create your own original MD
albums.
Caution
Do not edit the MD while driving, as it diverts
your attention from the road.
Notes on editing
• "Protected" appears if the tab for record-
protection is open.
• Once you finish editing an MD, be sure the MD is
ejected before you turn the ignition off or
disconnect the power-supply leads of the unit.
Editing is completed when the unit updates the
TOC (Table of Contents) information and ejects
the MD. The lamp located at the bottom of the
MD slot flashes during updating of the TOC
information.
• The (1) (REP), (2) (SHUF), and (DSPL) buttons
do not work during edit mode.

Erasing a recording

— Erase function

You can erase a single track or all tracks at
once. You can erase a portion of a track as well.

You cannot restore an erased track. Be sure to
confirm the selected track or tracks before erasing.
Erasing a single track

are renumbered.
