IMPORTANT:

•It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright owner.

•The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control and the SUBWOOFER VOLUME 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. Increase the distance between the TV and the unit.

•You can use type I and II tapes for recording.
