batteries or an A C adapte r to power t he
recorder.
We suggest you write your recorder’s
serial number here. The number is on
the bottom of the recorder.

PREPARATION
CONNECTING POWER
Using AC Power
You can power your telephone cassette
recorder from AC power using an optional AC adapte r, such as RadioShack
Cat. No. 273-1662.
Caution:
DC adapter that delivers at least 300
milliamps. Its center tip must be set to
negative, and its plug must properly fit
the TCR-200’s
mended adapter meets these requirements. Using an adapter that does not
meet these requirements could damage
the telephone cassette recorder or the
adapter.
Follow these steps to connec t your telephone cassette recorder to AC power.

Using Battery Power
Your telephone cassette recorder can
use four AA batteries (not supplied) for
power. For the best performance and
longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such as Cat. No. 23-552.
Follow these steps to install batteries.
1. Press the battery compartment
cover’s tab and lift off the cover.
2. Insert the batteries into the compartment, as indicated by the polarity
symbols (+ and –) marked inside the

CONNECTING TO
A PHONE
You can use the supplied handset

plan to talk on. When connected this
way, the recorder only records the
phone conversations on that phone.
Important:
quires that all parties on the phone line
be able to hear a beep indicating the
conversation is being recorded. If you
connect the telephone cassette recorder
to your phone using the supplied dualprong cord and handset adapter, all parties on the phone line might not hear a
beep during recording.
We recommend you check the laws in
your area. If it is unlawful to record without a beep sounding, or if you are unsure, connect the telephone cassette
recorder as described in “Connecting Directly to the Phone Line” to ensure the
beep will sound.

Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use an earphone.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high-volume
listening can lead to permanent
hearing loss.
• Set the volume to its lowest level
before you begin listening. A f ter y ou
put on the earphone, adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.
• Do not increase the volume once
you have established a comfortable
listening level. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort might still damage your
hearing.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your TCR-200 Telephone Cassette Recorder is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your telephone cassette recorder so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the telephone cassette recorder dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the telephone cassette recorder on ly in norm al tempe rature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the telephone cassette recorder away from dus t and dirt, which
can cause premature wear of parts.
Handle the telephone cassette recorder gently and carefully. Dropping
it can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the telephone
cassette recorder to work improperly.
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommende d type.
Batteries can leak chemicals t hat dam age y our t elep hone cas set te recorder’s electronic parts.
Wipe the telephone cassette recorder with a damp cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or
strong detergents to clean the telephone cassette recorder.
Modifying or tampering with the telephone cassette recorder’s internal compon ents
can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your telephone cassette recorder is not performing as it should,
take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. If the trouble is affecting the
telephone lines, the phone company can ask you to disconnect your cassette recorder until you have resolved the problem.

TAPE TIPS AND
TEC HNIQUES
The following tips can help you get the
best performance and the longest life
from your telephone cassette recorder.
Note:
Do not use endless or C-120 cassette tapes. C-120 t ape is very thin and
can tangle easily.
Preventing A ccid ent al Eras ure
Most cassette tapes have two eraseprotection tabs — one for each side of
the tape. When a tab is in place, you can
erase or record on that tape side. When
the tab is not in place, you cannot erase
or record on that side.
To prevent your recordings from being
accidentally erased or recorded over,
carefully break off the erase-protection
tabs using a screwdriver or similar tool.

If you later decide to erase or record
over the tape, you can place a p iece of
tape over the holes.
Tape Over Side A Tab
Note:
When covering the holes, cover
Side A Ta
only the portions that were originally protected by the plastic tabs.
Restoring Tape Tension and
Sound Quality
After you play a cassette tape several
times, the tape might become tightly
wound on the cassette reels. This can
cause playback sound quality to deteriorate.
To restore the sound quality, fast-forward the tape from the beg inning to the
end of one side, then completely rewi nd
it. Then loosen the tape reels by gently
tapping each side of the cassette’s outer
shell on a flat surface.
Caution:

the exposed tape or allow any sharp objects near the cassette.

Cleaning the Tape-Handling
Parts
Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape’s coating can accumulate on the tape heads
and other parts that the tape touches.
This can greatly reduce the telephone
cassette recorder’s performance. Use
the following cleaning procedure after
about every 20 hours of operation.
1. Remove the batteries and disconnect the AC adapter.
2. Open the cassette compartment
door.
3. Hold down the protection tab sensor

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
In the unlikely event that your telephone
cassette recorder causes problems on
the phone line, the phone company can
disconnect your service. The phone
company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance n oti ce is not practical,
the phone company notifies you of your
right to file a complaint with th e FCC.
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equip ment, operations, or procedures that could affect the
operation of your telephone cass ette recorder. The phone company notifies you
of these changes in advance, so you
can take steps to prevent interruption of
your phone service.
LIGHTNING
Your telephone cassette recorder has
built-in protection circuits to red uce the
risk of damage from surges in phone
and power line current. These protection
circuits meet or exceed FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the
phone line or power lines can damage
your telephone cassette recorder.
5. When you finish cleaning, press
STOP/EJECT
and close the compart-
ment.
Your local RadioShack store carries a
complete line of tape head-cleaning accessories.
14
Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in a n area that has
frequent electrical storms, we suggest
that you unplu g your te lephon e c asset te
recorder during storms to reduce the
possibility of damage.
