Video cassettes have a safety tab to prevent accidental
erasure. When this tab has been removed, you cannot
record on the tape.
1 If you wish to protect a cassette, break off the tab
using a small screwdriver.
2 To re-record over a protected cassette (safety tab
broken), cover the hole with adhesive tape.
