Tips on using cassette tapes
@ Leader tape (which does not allow sound to be record-
ed over it) is provided at the beginning of a cassette
tape. Start recording after allowing the tape to run for
approx. 5 seconds so that the leader tape clears the
recording head.
® Do notleave a cassette tape exposed to the environ-
ment. Store the cassette in its case so that dust and
dirt do not adhere to the tape after use, and so that
the tape is prevented from becoming slack.
Choose a location which is not exposed to the effects
of magnetism, dust, dirt and oil for storing the tapes.
@ Do not use cassette tapes longer than C-90.
Tapes longer than C-90 are quite thin and easily jam
in the pinch roller and capstan and may also cause ir-
regular winding. Do not use them in this unit. Use
tapes of 90 minutes or less.
