Preventing accidental erasing

All cassettes (except
rental and pre-recorded
cassettes) have a securi-
ty 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.

Lining up recordings (assemble cut)

When you add a further recording to a cassette,
which already has a recording on it, a short
blank (flicker) can appear between the old and
the new recording or the picture itself can flicker.
To help reduce these from occurring, proceed as
follows:
1.
1.
Find the tape position of the old recording
where you want to insert the new recording.
2.
2.
Look at the last minute of the old recording
(playback).
