RECORDING A
CASSETTE TAPE

You can record from the CD player or
radio.

Notes:

• Before recording, be sure the

erase-protection tabs are in place
on the cassette tape you are
recording onto.

• Before you load a cassette tape

for recording, turn the cassette’s
hub with your finger or a pencil to
move the tape past its leader.

• Tape quality greatly affects the

quality of the recording. We rec-
ommend regular length (60-
minute or 90-minute) cassette
tapes. Long-play cassette tapes
such as C-120s are not recom-
mended. For low-noise, wide-
range recordings, use normal-bias
tape.

• The CD-3316’s Automatic Level

Control (ALC) automatically
adjusts the recording level. VOL-
UME and TONE have no effect on
recording.
