NOTES:
• Refer to SAFEGUARD AGAINST ACCIDENTAL
ERASURE section (page 11) if the RECORD button
cannot be pressed.
• MICROPHONE FEEDBACK:
“Feedback” is a howling or screeching sound that
occurs when the microphone comes too close to the
speaker(s). To avoid microphone feedback, keep the
microphone as far away from the speakers as the
microphone cable will allow. If you must bring the
microphone close to the speakers, such as when you
are changing a tape or adjusting one of the other
controls on the front of the unit, set the microphone
On/Off switch to the “Off” position.
