• It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the
consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video
recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any
literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied
therein.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is
not affected by the VOLUME, the SUBWOOFER LEVEL,

you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to
without affecting the recording level.
• If there are excessive noise or static in the recording you
have made, the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the
distance between the TV and the unit.
• You can use type I tape for recording.

To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with
