Handling Cassette Tapes
Recommended cassette tapes
Use a TYPE I (Normal) tape. Using other types of tape may cause the unit to record or delete audio incorrectly.
Do not use tapes that are longer than 90 minutes in duration. These tapes are thin and can easily get caught on the
pinch rollers or capstans.
Loose tape
Loose tape can easily be damaged or cut. Remove any tape slack with a pencil or sim-
ilar device as shown in the figure.
Preventing important recordings from being erased accidentally
Other precautions for handling cassette tapes
Do not apply labels in locations not specified on the tape.
Do not place tapes near magnetic sources (speakers, TVs, etc.) Otherwise, important recordings might be erased or
damaged.
Do not expose cassette tapes to direct sunlight, high temperature or high humidity.
NOTE:
Recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder, although you may copy pur-
chased or broadcast recordings if the duplicate is exclusively for your personal use.
