Recording

Continued

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 other sound settings. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.

•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 only use type I tape for recording.

•DO NOT turn off the unit while playing back or

recording a tape. The cassette deck or tapes may be damaged.

•DO NOT use type II and type IV tapes since the unit is not compatible with such tapes.

•The use of C-120 or longer tape is not recommended, since characteristic deterioration may occur and this tape easily jams in the pinch rollers and the capstans.

At the start and end of cassette tapes

There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording from discs, FM/AM broadcasts, or external equipment, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the recording will be made without losing any music.

To protect your recordings

Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect against unexpected erasure or re-recording.

To protect your recording, remove these tabs.

To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with adhesive tape.

3 Start playing the source—FM, AM, or auxiliary equipment connected to AUX jack.

•When the source is FM or AM, tune in to the station you want to record.

•When recording from discs, see “Recording Discs— Disc Synchronized Recording” on page 19.
