See Initializing a DVD-RW disc on page 40 for detailed

Finalize

See Playing your recordings on other DVD players on
page 39 for detailed instructions.

the disc.
You can also undo the finalization of VR mode discs
which have been finalized on other DVD recorders. If
when you load a disc the message This disc cannot be
recorded. Undo the finalization is displayed, use this
