4.Press REC to begin recording. Both REC and PLAY lock down, and the record/bat- tery indicator (to the right of the tape counter) lights.

Notes:

The VOLUME setting determines the sound level that activates the VOX cir- cuit and starts recording. At higher settings, a softer sound starts VOX recording. At lower settings, a louder sound starts VOX recording.

The built-in automatic level control (ALC) automatically sets the recording level once recording starts.

When you use the VOX feature, recording begins when the recorder picks up sound and stops a few sec- onds after the sound stops.

5.For maximum clarity, place the recorder as close to the sound source as possible, with nothing between the source and the recorder that might block the sound.

6.To temporarily stop recording, slide PAUSE to ON. To resume recording, slide

PAUSE back.

7.Recording stops when the tape reaches the end of the cassette. To stop it sooner, press STOP/EJECT.
