Aiwa XM-M25 manual Insert the tape into deck, Press EDIT/CHECK once while pressing SHIFT button

Time on cassette tapes and editing time

The actual cassette recording time is usually a little longer than the specified recording time printed on the label. This unit can program tracks to use the extra time. When the total recording time is a little longer than the tape’s specified recording time after editing, the display shows the extra time (without a minus mark), instead of the time remaining on the tape (with the minus mark).

●Recording is inhibited if the erasure prevention tab on either side of the tape is broken off.

●The Al edit function cannot be used with discs containing 31 tracks or more.
