IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION
PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL ERASURE
Whenever you make a recording, any previous material on the
tape is automatically erased.
When you have a recording you want to keep permanently, break
out the rear left tab of the side you want to save (as shown in the
diagram).
When a cassette with the tab broken out is inserted in the
cassette compartment, accidental erasure is prevented by a lever
in the mechanism that keeps the RECORD button from depressing.
•
•
Alkaline batteries are recommended for best results. Using
nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries may result in shorter
playing time.
If you do not intend to use the unit for a month or more,
remove the batteries to avoid leakage or subsequent
damage.
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to
federal, state and local regulations.
Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different
battery type; if inserted incorrectly; if all batteries are not
replaced at the same time; if disposed of in fire; or if an
attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be
recharged.
RECORDING
1. Insert a blank cassette.
2. Select MIC sensitivity (HIGH or LOW).

cally depress at the same time).

Cellophane tape can be placed over the broken tab if you decide
later that you want to record over the material on that side.
4. Speak normally into the microphone. To obtain optimum
recording quality, place the recorder with the microphone
freely exposed to sound source and as close as conveniently
possible.
NOTE: This unit is equipped with a cassette sensing mechanism. This
mechanism prevents the RECORD button from being depressed when a
cassette is not present.

optimum recordings, regardless of volume setting.

CAUTION/CARE
Do not expose the unit to extreme temperatures, such as those
caused by a hot stove or the inside of a car parked in the
summer sun. Such conditions can damage the unit. Always
clean with a soft cloth, dampened with water only.
Cleaning the Heads: Iron oxide particles eventually build up
on parts that touch the tape. This can cause a muffled sound.
Use liquid head cleaner or a head cleaning tape to clean the
heads.
