Handling Mds; Memory Back-Up Function; When "Protected !!" Is Displayed; While "Utoc Writing" Is Blinking - TEAC PROFESSIONAL Tascam MD-350 Manuel Du Propriétaire

ª Handling MDs
The MiniDisc (MD) measures 64 mm in
diameter. Although the MD is housed in a
protective cartridge (68 mm x 72 mm x 5
mm) and can be handled easily, deck
malfunc-tions may result if the cartridge
gets dust on it or is damaged. To protect
the disc, always take the following
precautions:
... Be sure that the MD is taken out of the
deck and put back in its MD case after
using it.
... Do not touch the disc inside the
cartridge. Do not open the shutter to
expose the MD.
... Do not place MDs in direct sunlight, high
temperatures, or high levels of humidity.
... Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the
cartridge.
... When attaching a label to the MD
cartridge, be sure to apply it correctly to
the specified position. If the label is
rolled up or partially detached, the MD
cartridge may get stuck inside the deck.
... Do not place one label on top of another.

ª Memory back-up function
This unit is provided with a memory back-
up function. When you use the deck for the
first time, leave it on for about 5 minutes to
allow the back-up circuit to be charged
and become operational. When not using
the deck for a while, try to turn the power
on every 3 or 4 days.
ª Serial Copy Management System
This deck complies with the SCMS (Serial
Copy Management System). As a result, it
is not possible to digitally record from a

not be written correctly on the MD.
If the power is turned off with the MD

front panel of the unit.
ª Battery installation

2. Insert two "AA" (R6, SUM-3) dry
batteries.
Make sure that the batteries are
inserted with their positive ± and
negative — poles positioned correctly.
3. Close the cover until it clicks.
Battery replacement
If you notice that the distance between
the remote control unit and the player for
correct operation becomes shorter, it
indicates that the batteries are exhaust-
