Preventing accidental erasing
All cassettes (except rental and pre-recorded
cassettes) have a security tab on the back of the
cassette.
To prevent recording over important recordings
(erasing), you can remove this security tab.
If you later decide to record on a protected cas-
sette, simply cover the hole with adhesive tape
or slide the tab to the right.
