Care & Use

Concerning Cassette Tapes

■ Selection of cassette tapes

Cassette tapes exceeding 90 minutes
These tapes are handy for their long playback and recording time
but be careful about repeatedly stopping and starting, rewinding
and fast forwarding these tapes in short intervals as they are thin,
tend to stretch and may become entangled in the deck mechan

ism.

Do not use the following types of tapes in this unit;

•Fe-Cr tapes (TYPE III)

This type emphasizes the high-frequency range, making it im

possible to obtain a flat frequency response.

•Metal tape for recording

Recordings will be very distorted. (There is no problem during
playback, however.)

■ To prevent erasure of a recorded tape

Remove the erase-prevention tabs (thus preventing recording).

■ Improper tape storage

You can damage tape if you store it in the foltowing ways:
•In high temperature [35°C (95°F) or higher] or high humidity (80%

or higher) areas.

•In a strong magnetic field (near a speaker, on top of a TV, etc.).

This can erase a recording.

• In direct sunlight.

To re-record on a protected csseette

Cover the slot with adhesive tape.

■ Tape slack

Tape slack may cause the tape to break.
