Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.
This manual is immaculate in it's accuracy. Everything is written very clearly and easy to understand. Written by a professional who wants to convey a clear and easy to understand message!!
Great site, I always find all the manuals I need and i can't find anywhere else. PDF for the Sony PCM 3348 is complete and scan is good quality. Thank you!

General information on recording
Recording is permissible insofar as copyright or other rights of third parties are not infringed upon. For recording on this set you should use a cassette of the type NORMAL (IEC type I). This deck is not suitable for recording on cassettes of the type CHROME (IEC type II) or METAL (IEC type IV). The recording level is set automatically. The controls VOLUME and DBB do not affect the recording. At the very beginning and end of the tape, no recording will take place in the 7 seconds during which the leader tape passes the recorder heads.
Protecting tapes from accidental erasure Keep the cassette side to be protected in front of you and snap off the left tab. Now, recording on this side is no longer possible. To record again on this side of the cassette, cover the opening with a piece of adhesive tape.
