The top tray is moveable from an inclined working position to a flat storage position. The first and last pulses of the erase pattern can be differently set depending on the differing kind of recording layer or layers of a disk or differing kinds of disks and recorded in a reproducible only area or rewritable area of the optical recording medium. It also reduces the loss of electrical resistance as temperature increases.
