Renumbering

If you record from the beginning to the
middle of a tape on which another
recording has ever been applied, the same
program number may be written twice on
that tape.
If you omit designating the next program
number when recording from the middle of
the tape, the succeeding program
numbers are not written.
In such cases, with the renumbering
function, you can renumber the program
numbers from the beginning of the tape at
a high speed.

during playback or in the stop
mode.
The tape will automatically be
rewound to the beginning, and the

start ID position.
While the program numbers are
rewritten, the START ID indicator
flashes and while the tape is fast-
forwarded to the next start ID, the
AUTO RENUMBER indicator flashes.
When program numbers are written
correctly, the tape is fast-forwarded
to the next start ID.
When renumbering is terminated
The tape is automatically rewound to the

Note
The renumbering function may not work
correctly in the following cases:

• The beginning of the new tape is
advanced with the ¡ or 3 button.
