If you record on a previously recorded tape,
you replace the old recording with the new
one. If you need to quickly erase an entire
tape, you might prefer to use a bulk eraser
(available at your local RadioShack store).

Cassettes have two erase-protection tabs -
one for each side. When a tab is in place,
you can record on that side.
To prevent accidental erasure of a tape
recording, use a screwdriver to remove one
or both of the cassette tape’s erase-
protection tabs. This prevents
RECORD
from
being pressed. If you later decide to record
on a tape side after you have removed its
erase-protection tab, place a piece of strong
plastic tape over that side’s erase-protection
hole. Be sure you cover only the hole
originally covered by the erase-protection tab.

After you play a cassette tape several times,
the tape might become tightly wound on the
reels. This can cause playback sound
quality to deteriorate. To restore the sound
quality, fast-forward the tape from the
beginning to the end of one side, then
completely rewind it. Then loosen the tape
reels by gently tapping each side of the
cassette’s outer shell on a flat surface.

Keep the recorder dry; if it gets wet, wipe it
dry immediately. Use and store the recorder
only in normal temperature environments.
Handle the recorder carefully; do not drop it.
Keep the recorder away from dust and dirt,
and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new.

Preventing Accidental Erasure
Removing the erase-protection tabs does not
prevent a bulk tape eraser from erasing a
cassette tape.
Restoring Tape Tension and
Sound Quality
Be careful not to damage the cassette when
tapping it. Do not touch the exposed tape or
allow any sharp object near the cassette.

Using Fast Forward and Rewind
• You can also rewind or fast-forward during
playback to help you locate a specific portion
of the tape (for example, if you are listening
for a particular speech, statement or other
audio cue). While holding it down, you hear
the tape at a faster speed. To return to
normal playback, release the button.
• The recorder does not automatically stop
when it reaches the end of the tape. To
protect the tape after the tape has fully
wound to either end, press STOP to release
fast-forward or rewind.
Erasing Tapes
If you use metal or high-bias type tape, the
recorded sound may not be erased properly.

Dirt, dust, or particles from the tape’s
coating can accumulate on the tape heads
and other parts the tape touches. This can
greatly reduce the performance of the
recorder. After every 20 hours of
operation, follow these steps to clean the
tape-handling parts or use a RadioShack
cassette deck cleaning kit.
1. Remove the batteries and disconnect
any other power source.
2. Open the cassette compartment door
and press
PLAY
to expose the tape-
handling parts.
3. Use a cotton swab dipped in
denatured alcohol or tape head
cleaning solution to clean the record/
playback head, pinch rollers, tape
guides, and capstans.
4. When you finish cleaning, press
STOP
and close the cassette compartment
door. Then reconnect power.
