Some general tips:
*If you have forgotten to insert a cassette, the display will read ‚NO CASSETTE’.
*If you accidentally try to start recording on a cassette that is erase protected, the word ’PROTECTED’ will appear in the display.
The cassette will be automatically ejected.
*If the end of the cassette is reached during recording, the appliance will stop automatically. If you have ac- tivated repeat recording (REPEAT REC), the tape will wind back to the beginning. The video will then start recording at the beginning of the tape.
*Existing recordings on the tape will be automatically deleted if you make a new recording on the tape.
Erase protection
To prevent an important recording from being deleted ac- cidentally, you can remove the erase protection tab on the narrow side of the cassette with a screwdriver.
To undo the erase protection, seal the gap again with adhesive tape.
