3. Configuració i preparació
Before recording or playback, ensure your cassette deck or player is clean and in good working order. Refer to your cassette deck's manual for specific cleaning and maintenance procedures.

- Insert into Deck: Open the cassette compartment of your audio device and insert the tape with the desired side (A or B) facing up, ensuring the open edge with the tape is facing towards the playback/record head. Close the compartment securely.
