About indication which appears while editing
When �Protected� appears in the display The record-protect slot is open. To edit the MD, slide the tab to close the slot. For details, see �To prevent accidental erasure of the recorded material� on page 15.

Erasing Tracks
You can erase a track or part of a track simply by specifying the number of the track or the portion within a track to be erased. You can also erase all the tracks on an MD at one time.

About indications which appear after editing
When �TOC� lights up in the display Editing has finished but the TOC (Table of Contents) on the MD has not been updated to reflect the editing results. The editing will be lost if you disconnect the AC power cord while the indication is on. The TOC will be updated only when you eject the MD or turn off the MD deck. When �TOC Writing� flashes in the display The deck is updating the TOC. Do not disconnect the AC power cord or move the deck while the indication flashes.

Erasing a track
Specify the number of the track you want to erase. Example: Erasing the second track
1 AAA 2 BBB 3 CCC 4 DDD

1 AAA

2 CCC

3 DDD

When you erase a track, all the tracks after the one erased are automatically renumbered. For example, if you erase track number 2, the previous track number 3 becomes track number 2 and the previous track number 4 becomes track number 3, and so on.
