DMF-9020/MD-2070 (En) 9 Caution on condensation Condensation (of dew) may occur inside the unit when there is a great difference in temperature between this unit and the outside. This unit may not function properly if condensation occurs. In this case, leave the unit for a few hours with the power left ON, and restart the operation after the condensation has dried up. Be specially cautious against condensation in a follow- ing circumstance: When this unit is carried from a place to another across a large difference in temperature, when the humidity in the room where this unit is installed increases, etc. Memory backup The typical period for which the memory can be backed up while the power cord is unplugged or the POWER key is set to the OFF position is about 3 weeks, though this may be variable depending on the surrounding environment. In case of long hours of power failure or slipping out of the power cord, the data related to recording and editing (that is usually recorded at the moment the Mini Disc is ejected) may be cleared or destroyed before it is written in the Mini Disc. Remember that the data lost cannot be recovered. After recording or editing, be sure to eject the Mini Disc so that the recording or editing data can be written in the disc. Reference notes Maintenance of the set When the front panel or case becomes dirty, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use thinner, benzine, alcohol, etc. for these agents may cause discoloration. In regard to contact cleaner Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful not to use contact cleaners containing oil, for they may deform the plastic component. Maintenance US and foreign patents licensed from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Information that you should know Unplug power cord CD TEXT CD TEXT is a system that is standardized to allow the display of text data (disc name or song title, artist name etc.) that is recorded on CDs in addition to music. By digitally connecting this unit with a CD player (CD TEXT compatible), the text data of a CD can be copied to an MD. Presently, however, some CDs are equipped with a copy prevention code that prohibits the copying of this data. In the case of such CDs, copying of text data is not possible. On CDs that do not include the text data copy prevention code, the operation of ÒCD text display and copyÓ is possible. i

DMF-9020/MD-2070 (En) 23 Recording-related keys AUTO / MANU. key This key is used to select whether track numbers are to be marked automatically during recording or they are to be marked manually during or after recording. The track num- bers can be used to locate the beginning of a track during playback or programming tracks. Select before starting recording.AUTO If a no-sound input has lasted for the time set for the AUTO TIME function during recording, the track number will be incremented automatically by Ò1Ó. Usually, use this position for recording. Use this mode when recording all of the tracks in a CD. When recording music containing a continuous section with a very low level, for example when recording classic music, the track number may be incremented by Ò1Ó after such a section. In this case, cancel the track number later. It is recommended to use the MANUAL mode when recording such a kind of music. During digital recording of CD, the track number is incremented auto- matically by Ò1Ó according to the data contained in the digital informa- tion. The no-sound blank is not detected. When the CD track number is increased during manual search of a CD, the track number recorded on the MD may sometimes fail to be incremented. A no sound track may sometimes created at the moment the played CD stops. MANUALWith this setting, the MD track number is not incremented automatically during recording. Track numbers can be marked either during editing (by pressing the EDIT key) or after recording (by executing the TRACK DIVIDE operation ß ). Even when ÒMANUALÓ is set, the AUTO CUT and AUTO PAUSE functions work if the ÒAUTO CUTÓ and ÒREC AUTO PAUSEÓ settings are turned on. This setting is convenient when recording a CD which has been recorded in live or which contains very low-level sound such as a classical music CD. Press in stop mode. Press to monitor the sound being input from the source while the unit is in stop mode. When the REC INPUT is DIGITAL, the sampling rate (48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz) of the input digital signal can be displayed by pressing this key.

Preparation Automatically starting recording when the track starts (SOUND SYNCHRO REC) Recording starts when a sound above a certain level is input. This function is particularly convenient when combined with the AUTO CUT function to record selected tracks. Press while in the recording pause mode. When the track starts, recording starts.

ÖFor some music sources, the beginning of the track may be cut off. Automatically pausing recording when the track ends (REC AUTO PAUSE) Recording is automatically paused when the sound input is below a certain level for over 3 seconds or when the track number changes during digital recording of a CD. This function comes in handy when you only want to record one track from the CD. Press while in the recording or recording pause mode.

ÖThere is no blank space left between the two tracks. ÖTrack division may sometimes be impossible due to the limitations of the MD standard.
