CAUTION:
When the AUDIO INPUT LINE/MIC switch on the rear
section is set to MIC, be sure to check that the microphone
is connected to the AUDIO INPUT connector. If the
microphone is not connected, increasing the recording level
could cause noise from the input connector to be recorded
on the tape. When the microphone is not connected to the
AUDIO INPUT connector on the rear panel, set the LINE/
MIC switch to LINE or turn down the recording level control.
