RECORDING A CASSETTE
TAPE
You can record from the radio or TV, or
use the built-in microphone to make a
live recording.
For the best performance, use only reg-
ular length (60- or 90-minute) cassette
tapes. We do not recommend long-play-
ing cassette tapes, such as C-120s, be-
cause they are extremely thin and can
easily tangle in the playback mecha-
nism.
Caution: If you use a cassette tape with
the erase-protection tabs removed, do
not force down
RECORD
. This can dam-
age the recording mechanism. See
“Preventing Accidental Erasure” on
Page 15.
Notes:
• The automatic level control feature
automatically sets the recording
level.
TONE
and
VOLUME
have no
effect on the recording.
• Tape quality greatly affects the qual-
ity of the recording. For low-noise,
wide-range recordings, use normal-
bias tape.
