General Information English Unpacking Compact Discs First check the contents of the packaging. It should contain the following: The glossy side shining like a rainbow is the front side of the disc, and the side on which the label is printed is the back. Unlike conventional turntables for playing analog discs, the PMD371 reads the information recorded on the disc from underneath without contacting it using a beam of laser light.
General Information This unit can play back the CD-RW (ReWritable) discs as well as ordinary music CD and CD-R (Recordable) discs. • The CD-R and CD-RW discs should contain properly-recorded TOC information so that they can be played back. With the CD recorder system, writing the TOC information in a disc is referred to as finalizing the disc. A disc cannot be recognized as a CD disc and played back unless it has been finalized properly.
