Preventing accidental erasing

rental and pre-recorded
cassettes) have a secu-
rity tab on the back of
the cassette.
To prevent recording
over important recordings (erasing), you can
remove this security tab.
If you later decide to record on a protected cas-
sette, simply cover the hole with adhesive tape
or slide the tab to the right.
