● Recording is permissible insofar as copyright or
other rights of third parties are not infringed.

broken. This deck is not suited for recording on
METAL (IEC IV) type tapes.

recording will take place during the 7 seconds
when the leader tape passes the recorder heads.

tab. Recording on this side is no longer possible.
If, however, you wish to record over this side
again, cover the tabs with a piece of adhesive
tape.
