RECORDING ON CASSETTE TAPES

You can record programs from the radio or the CD player. Just set up the system to use whichever option you choose, and then record it. For best results, use normal bias cassette tapes.

2.Choose the RADIO function and select a radio station.

3.Press the RECORD button to begin recording.

4.Press STOP/EJECT to end recording.

RECORDING FROM THE CD PLAYER

2.Choose the DISC function.

3.Insert the CD you want to record. You can start with any track on a disc (or you can create a program

to record).

4.Press PLAY/PAUSE on the CD player twice (to begin and pause disc play).

5.Press the RECORD button on the cassette deck to begin recording.

6.Press PLAY/PAUSE on the CD player.

ERASE PROTECTION

When you record new material, the cassette deck records over whatever is on a tape. To protect a tape from accidental erasure, break off one or both plastic tabs (one for each tape side) on the top of the cassette tape. If you decide later to record on the tape, seal the hole with a piece of cellophane tape.

Pause for a Moment

Using the PAUSE button on the cassette deck instead of the STOP button to momentarily interrupt recording gives you a much cleaner sounding recording when you play it back later.

Quit Slacking

A little bit of slack in your tapes can cause scratches on the tape, or worse yet, the tape could break. If you notice some slack in the tape,

use a pencil to
tighten it up	A
before you
insert it.

We’re on the Level

The built-in Automatic Level Control automatically sets the input level for optimum recording sound. You can listen to, and even adjust the volume setting without affecting the quality of the recording.
