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.

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

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