Playing a Cassette
For best performance, use only regular length (60 or 90 minute) cassette tapes. We
do not recommend metal tapes or long-playing cassette tapes, such as C-120s,
because they are extremely thin and can tangle easily.
1. Open the cassette deck cover.
2. Use a pencil to turn the cassette’s hub and take up any slack in the tape before
loading.
3. Load the cassette with the side you want to play facing the compartment’s
window, then close the door.
4. Set TAPE SPEED to SLOW, NORMAL, or FAST. Use the tape speed which best
suits you to find a passage or make a transcription.
5. Turn
VOLUME/VOX SENS counter-clockwise to its lowest setting.
6. Press
e to start tape playback.
7. Adjust
VOLUME/VOX SENS to a comfortable listening level.
8. Set VOX/TONE to HIGH to emphasize treble sounds, or to LOW to reduce them.
9. To pause playback, slide PAUSE to ON. Slide PAUSE to OFF to resume playing.
10.To fast forward or rewind the tape, press /. The button locks down and the
tape continues moving until you press Q. Make sure you press Q to release/
and stop the tape. This prevents damage to the tape after it has fully wound.
