Remote Cassette Tape Player (If Equipped)
If you have an AM-FM Stereo Audio Compact Disc
Automatic Tone Control System that includes a remote
cassette player, the cassette player is located in the
floor console.
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer than
that are so thin they may not work well in this player.
To load a cassette tape with the ignition
off, first press
EJECT on the remote player. Then, insert the cassette tape.
The tape will play if the ignition is on but the radio is off.
Once
the
tape is playing, use the control knobs for VOL,
AUTO TONE, BAL, FADE, BASS and TREB just as
you do for the radio. A lighted tape symbol shows when
a cassette tape is in the player. A lighted arrow will also
appear and show the direction of play when a tape
is active.
The player automatically senses if the cassette tape is metal
or Cr02 and adjusts for best playback sound.
For metal tapes,
the double-D symbol will appear on the display.
Anytime a cassette tape is inserted. the top side is
selected for play first.

arrow will blink during the SEEK operation and the
sound is muted in this mode.
NEXT (3):
Press
NEXT
or the
SEEK
right arrow (in the
direction that the lighted tape direction arrow points) to
searc.h for the next selection. The tape direction arrow
will blink during SEEK operation and the sound is
muted in this mode.

The tape will rapidly reverse to the beginning of the
cassette reel or until you press REV again. The radio
plays the last selected station during REV.
