CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The tape recorder in this system allows you to make direct recordings from the radio or CD player to a blank cassette in the tape compartment. An automatic recording volume level control (ALC) circuit will automatically control the volume level of your recordings to prevent distortion. You may change the settings of the volume during a tape recording, as these controls have no effect on the material being recorded onto the tape.

To make a tape recording, proceed as follows:

SAFEGUARD AGAINST ACCIDENTAL ERASURE

When a new recording is make, any program material previously recorded is automatically erased and only the new recording remains. To safeguard valuable recordings from being erased accidentally, the cassette and the deck are equipped with a spacial device.

CASSETTE TAPE RECOMMENDATIONS

Standard tape lengths have 15 (C-30),30 (C-60) and 45 (C-90) minutes of recording time on each side. Longer length tapes of 60 (C-120) minutes of recording time on each side are not recommended. Use only high quality tapes. If a problem develops, check the unit first with another cassette to determine if the problem is with the cassette, and not with the unit.

If there is any stack in the tape in the cassette, it should be removed before inserting the cassette. Place a pencil in one of the hubs and rotate toward the outside of the cassette until all stack is taken up.

To avoid recording unwanted material, such as radio commercials, use the Pause
