Protecting a Recorded Cassette

Video cassettes have a safety tab to prevent accidental erasure. When this tab has been removed, you cannot record on the tape.

1If you wish to protect a cassette, break off the tab using a small screwdriver.

2To re-record over a protected cassette (safety tab broken), cover the opening with adhesive tape.

➢When you insert a video cassette in the COMBI VISION, playback starts automatically if the safety tab is broken (protected cassette); otherwise you must press PLAY ( ).

If you try to record on a protected cassette (safety tab broken), the cassette is ejected.
