operation button on the recorder).
, Disable HOLD by sliding the HOLD switch
in the opposite direction of the arrow

• Moisture has condensed inside the recorder.
, Take the MD out and leave the recorder in a
warm place with the lid open for several hours
until the moisture evaporates.

dry battery (page 53).

• When recording digitally from a portable CD
player, you did not use AC power or did not
disable the anti-skip function such as ESP (pages

connecting cord with an attenuator.

(page 18).
