while a tape without a record tab is in the VCR, the VCR will eject the tape and PROTECTED CASSETTE CANNOT RECORD will flash on the screen. For recording options, see pages 26-32. You can change the tape speed during a recording, but some distortion will appear on the tape. The VCR records in a preset volume.

a channel other than 3 or 4 at the TV to see the VCR image on your TV.
