Things to know before you start recording
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 work embodied therein. When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set reverse mode to. Recording automatically stops after recording in the reverse (2) direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape direction is forward (3) when recording with reverse mode is on. The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control on the system or by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level. Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure or recording. To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover the holes with adhesive tape rst. However, when a type II tape is used, only cover part of the hole as shown, since the other part of the hole (type II detection slot) is used to detect the tape type.

Things to know before you start recording
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 work embodied therein. When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set reverse mode to. Recording automatically stops after recording in the reverse (2) direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape direction is forward (3) when recording with reverse mode is on. The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control on the system or by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level. Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure or recording. To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover the holes with adhesive tape rst. However, when a type II tape is used, only cover part of the hole as shown, since the other part of the hole (type II detection slot) is used to detect the tape type.

The indicator lights up and the cassette deck starts recording. When the tape reaches its end at the middle of a song in the forward direction (3), the recording in the reverse direction (2) will start from the beginning of that track (or previous track).
