General information on recording

●Recording is permissible insofar as copyright or other rights of third parties are not infringed.

●For recording, use only NORMAL (IEC type I) tapes on which the tabs have not yet been broken.This deck is not suited for recording on METAL (IEC IV) type tapes.

●The best recording level is set automatically. Altering the VOLUME, INCREDIBLE SURROUND, DBB or INTERACTIVE SOUND controls will not affect the recording in progress. The recording sound quality might differ depending on the quality of your recording source and the recording tape.

●At the very beginning and end of the tape, no recording will take place during the 7 seconds when the leader tape passes the recorder heads.

●To protect a tape from accidental erasure, have the tape in front of you and break out the left tab. Recording on this side is no longer possible. If, however, you wish to record over this side again, cover the tabs with a piece of adhesive tape.
