General information on recording

For recording, use only tape of IEC type I (normal tape).

The recording level is set automatically, regardless of the position of the Volume, Incredible Surround, BASS/TREBLE and so forth.

The tape is secured at both ends with leader

tape. At the beginning and end of the tape, nothing will be recorded for six to seven seconds.

To prevent accidental recording, break out the tab on the left shoulder of the tape side you want to protect.

If ÒCHECK TAPEÓ is displayed, the protection tab has been broken. Put a piece of clear adhesive tape over the opening.
