If you later decide to record on a tape side after you
have removed its erase-protection tab, place a piece
of strong plastic tape over that side’s erase-protec-
tion hole. Be sure you cover only the hole originally
covered by the erase-protection tab.
Caution: Removing the erase-protection tabs does
not prevent a bulk tape eraser from erasing a cas-
sette tape.
Restoring Tape Tension and Sound
Quality
After you play a cassette tape several times, the tape
might become tightly wound on the reels. This can
cause playback sound quality to deteriorate.
To restore the sound quality, fast-forward the tape
from the beginning to the end of one side, then com-
pletely rewind it. Then loosen the tape reels by gently
tapping each side of the cassette’s outer shell on a
flat surface.
Caution: Be careful not to damage the cassette
when tapping it. Do not touch the exposed tape or al-
low any sharp objects near the cassette.
