Cassette Tape Messages

If an error occurs while trying to play a cassette tape,
it could be for one of the following reasons:
TIGHT TAPE: This message is displayed when the
tape is tight and the player can't turn the tape hubs.
Remove the tape. Hold the tape with the open end
down and try to turn the right hub counterclockwise
with a pencil. Turn the tape over and repeat.
If the hubs do not turn easily, your tape may be
damaged and should not be used in the player. Try a
new tape to make sure your player is working properly.
BROKEN TAPE: This message is displayed when
the tape is broken. Try a new tape.
WRAPPED TAPE: This message is displayed when the
tape is wrapped around the tape head. Attempt to get
the cassette out. Try a new tape.
CLEAN PLAYER: If this message appears on the
display, the cassette tape player needs to be cleaned.
It will still play tapes, but you should clean it as soon as
possible to prevent damage to the tapes and player.
See Care of Your Cassette Tape Player on page 3-108 .
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays an
error message, write it down and provide it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.

with your cassette tape player after disabling the
tight/loose tape sensing feature on your tape player.
To disable the feature, use the following steps:
