Recording Instructions
Please use deck B for recording external sources or
dubbing tapes. Note that most cassettes feature a
protective plastic strip which, when removed, will not allow
any recording to be made to the cassette.
Note:
When the plastic strip has been removed, the unit’s
Record
button will not function when attempting to record
to the cassette.
Tip:
To record to a cassette which no longer has a plastic strip, use adhesive tape to cover the
strip opening.

Tip:
The

its original volume. Ideally, the recording signal should come close but never hit red in the
