lf AUTO appears in the display window when recording
from the beginning of the tape, the program number is
automatically written together with start ID. Renumber it
in the following cases because it may not be written or it
may overlap.
¢ The succeeding program numbers are not written
because you started recording from the middle of the
tape.
The same program number may be written twice on
the tape because you have recorded from the
beginning to the middle of a tape on which another
recording was made.
¢ When you write a start 1D during playback.
¢ Ifyou erase the start ID, the program number will be
automatically erased. This means that there may be
some missing numbers on the tape.
Unless you renumber the program numbers, it may be
inconvenient for you because the same program
number may appear twice or you cannot select the
desired selection with the numeric button on the adaptor
kit RM-D8K (not supplied).
