STORING CASSETTE TAPES
Do not expose microcassette tapes to
high temperatures, high humidity, dust or
dirt, or motors, transformers, or other ob-
jects with strong magnetic fields.
PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL
ERASURE
Cassette tapes have two erase-protection
tabs — one for each side. When a tab is in
place, you can record on that side.
To prevent accidental erasure of a tape
recording, use a screwdriver to remove
one or both of the cassette tape’s erase-
protection tabs. This prevents
RECORD
from being pressed.
If you later decide to record on a tape side
after you have removed the erase-protec-
tion tab, place a piece of strong plastic
tape over that side’s erase-protection
hole. Be sure you cover only the hole orig-
inally covered by the erase-protection tab.
