ABOUT CASSETTE TAPES
This unit is designed to be used only with Chrome-
position tape, and will not work properly with Ferri-
chrome tape formulations. CrO

not recommended because they exhibit poorer perfor-
mance, and can be the cause of equipment failure.
Preventing accidental erasure of recordings
l
To keep from inadvertently erasing a prized recording, all
cassette tapes have record protection tabs along the top
edge of the cassette shell. If this tab is broken out using
a screwdriver or any other appropriate implement, it will
not be possible to record on the corresponding side of
the tape This will protect your recordings from accidental
erasure For 4-track recording, it's necessary to break out
the tabs for both the A and B sides of the tape
When you'd like to record over a tape with the tabs
broken out, just cover the holes (where the tabs were)
with tape.

Taking up tape slack
l
If the tape is used when it is slack, or some portion of
the tape is out of the cassette shell, there is a risk it
may become tangled around the capstan or pinchroller.
In order to correct this, insert a pencil or ballpoint pen
into the center of one reel, and rotate to take up loose
tape slack.
Storing cassette tapes
l
To prevent tape slack, fit a stopper into the tape or keep
tapes in their cases. Do not store tapes in direct sunlight,
or in places with high heat or humidity, as this may
damage the tapes. Also, keep the tapes away from
magnetic fields, such as near televisions or speakers,
because the recordings can be erased or sonically altered
to some degree.
