Finalizing a CD-R/RW Disc
“Finalizing” a CD-R/RW to which audio data were written
refers to the procedure of turning it into a finished audio CD.
After a disc has been finalized, no more tracks can be added
to it. When a CD-R disc has been finalized, it will be
playable on an ordinary CD player. (A CD-RW will
normally not be playable on an ordinary CD player, even if it
has been finalized.)
1.
Insert the disc to finalize into the CD-R/RW drive.
2.
From the main screen, press the [CD-R/RW] key in
the display section.
The CD-R/RW menu appears.

Verify that the indication “CD-R/RW AUDIO CD” is
shown on the display, and press the [ENTER] key.
The audio CD menu appears.
4.
Use the cursor left/right keys to bring up the
indication “AUDIO CD FINALIZE” on the display,
and press the [ENTER] key.
The display indicates the total number of tracks on the CD-
R/RW disc. The counter indicates the total playing time of
all tracks on the disc (including pauses) in hours (H),
minutes (M), and seconds (S).
5.
Press the [ENTER] key.
The indication “FINALIZE SURE?” appears on the display.
6.
To carry out the finalizing process, press the
[ENTER] key once more. To cancel the operation,
press the [EXIT] key.
When you press the [ENTER] key, the finalizing process
starts. During the operation, the display shows “FINALIZE
wait...”. When the process is finished, the display indication
changes to “FINALIZE COMPLETE”.
