IMPORTANT:
• It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the
consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video
recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any
literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied
therein.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is
not affected by the VOLUME control, the SOUND MODE
control and the SUBWOOFER LEVEL control. Thus,
during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually
listening to without affecting the recording level.
• While recording, you can hear sound modes through the
speakers or headphones. However, the sound is recorded
without these effects (see page 10).
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static,
the unit may be too close to a TV. Place the unit away from
the TV.
• You can use type I tape for recording.
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs
on the back to protect
unexpected erasure or re-
recording.
To protect your recording,
remove these tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with
adhesive tape.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette decks
become dirty, the following will occur:
• Impaired sound quality
• Discontinuous sound
• Fading
• Incomplete erasure
• Difficulty in recording
To clean the head, capstan, and pinch roller
Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.
To demagnetize the head
Turn off the unit, and use a head demagnetizer (available at
electronics and audio shops).
