About CD and Cassette Tape

Handling Cassette Tapes

■Recommended cassette tapes

•Use a TYPE I (Normal) tape. Using other types of tape may cause the unit to record or delete audio incorrectly.

•Do not use tapes that are longer than 90 minutes in duration. These tapes are thin and can easily get caught on the pinch rollers or capstans.

■Loose tape

Loose tape can easily be damaged or cut. Remove any tape slack with a pencil or sim- ilar device as shown in the figure.

■Preventing important recordings from being erased accidentally

If at some later date you wish to record the cassette, simply cover the hole(s) with small pieces of cellophane tape.

■Other precautions for handling cassette tapes

•Do not apply labels in locations not specified on the tape.

•Do not place tapes near magnetic sources (speakers, TVs, etc.) Otherwise, important recordings might be erased or damaged.

•Do not expose cassette tapes to direct sunlight, high temperature or high humidity.
