during normal-speed dubbing, set DOLBY NR to match
the tape in deck A.
Note
If a TV set is placed near the tape deck, noise may occur
during high-speed dubbing. In that case, turn the television
set off or move it away from the tape deck.

On tapes longer than 90 minutes
We do not recommend the use of tapes longer than 90
minutes except for a long continuous recording or playback.
They are very thin and tend to stretch easily.
On handling cassettes
• To prevent the heads and tape path from getting dirty,
avoid touching the tape surface of a cassette.
• Place cassettes away from equipment with magnets, such
as speakers and amplifiers, which may cause tape
distortion or erase the recordings.
• Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, extremely cold
temperature, or moisture.
