The tape cannot be recorded on because the record- protect tab(s) on the cassette has (have) been removed.

zLength of tape used for recording

Tracks on a CD differ in length. Classical music CDs and others often have tracks that exceed the recording time of a single cassette side. In this case, record the tape manually.

zWhen recording from the middle of the tape

A tape that is inserted and has not been played or recorded on is assumed by the deck to be a new tape, even if the present location is in the middle of the tape. The deck will transport the tape for 10 seconds before starting CD Synchro-Recording to bypass the portion corresponding with the leader. To begin CD Synchro- Recording without the ten-seconds delay, play or record on the tape for a few seconds before starting the CD Synchro-Recording procedure.

zIf the tape ends during CD Synchro-Recording on the front side of the tape (·lights up) and DIRECTION MODE is set to aor RELAY

Recording of the track ends immediately, the tape direction is reversed, and recording starts again from the beginning of the track. If the tape ends on the reverse side of the tape (ª lights up), CD Synchro- Recording stops and the CD player stops playing.

Notes

To prevent interruption of the recording process, do not press any operation buttons on the CD player during CD Synchro-Recording.
