Recording From The Radio; Recording From Cds - RCA RP-7986 User Manual

ERASE PROTECTION
When you record new material, the cassette deck records over whatever is on a
tape. To protect a tape from accidental erasure, break off one or both plastic tabs
(one for each tape side) on the top of the cassette tape. If you decide later to
record on the tape, seal the hole with a piece of cellophane tape.
Quit Slacking
A little bit of s|ack in your tapes can cause scratches on the tape, or
worse yet, the tape could break. If you notice some slack in the tape,
use a pencil to tighten it up before you insert it.
