Before You Start Recording On A Tape - JVC UX-F70MD Instructions Manual

Before You Start Recording on a Tape

• It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the
copyright owner.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control. Thus, during
recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
• While recording, you can hear sound mode effect and/or the Active Hyper Bass Pro effect through the speakers or
headphones. However, the sound is recorded without these effects (see pages 12.)
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Place the unit away
from the TV.
• You can use type I tape for recording.
To protect your recordings
Cassettes have two small taps on the back to protect
unexpected erasure or recording.
To protect your recording, remove these tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with
adhesive tape.
The use of the C-120 or thinner tape is not
recommended, since characteristic deterioration
may occur and this tape easily jams in the
pinchrollers and the capstans.
To keep the best recording and playback sound
quality
If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette
deck become dirty, the following will occur:
• Loss of sound quality
• Discontinuous sound
• Fading
• Incomplete erasure
• Difficulty in recording
Adhesive tape
To clean the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers
Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.
To demagnetize the head
Turn off the unit, and use a head demagnetizer
(available at electronics and audio shops).
There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus,
when recording CDs or radio broadcasts, wind the leader
tape first to ensure that the recording will be made without
any music part lost.
