Setting the Tone
Playing a Cassette Tape
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.
The longer side with the tape visible should face to the
right. If you hear nothing or hear just a garbled sound, it
may not be in squarely. Press STOP or EJECT to
remove the tape and start over.
Once the tape is playing, use the knobs for
VOL,
FADE,
BASS, TREB and BAL, just as you do for the radio.
The lighted arrows show which side of the
tape is playing.
MTL: Your bias is set automatically. MTL will appear
on the display when a metal or chrome tape is inserted.
FF: Press this button to advance rapidly to another part
of the tape. Press FF, RCL or STOP to return to playing
speed. If you press RCL, the tape will also change sides.
TREB: Turn this knob to the right to hear more treble.
BASS: Turn this control behind the TREB knob to
the
right to hear more bass.
Treble and bass cannot be adjusted manually when
TONE SELECT is on.
TONE SELECT Press this button to choose preset
treble and bass equalization settings designed for
ROCK, NEWS, POP, JAZZ and CLASSICAL.
ROCK will appear when you first press TONE
SELECT. Each time you press it, another setting will
appear on the display. If you press
it one more time,
after CLASSICAL appears on the display, tone control
will be back to the TREB and BASS knob.
Adjusting the Speakers
FADE: Turn this knob to move the sound between the
front and rear speakers.
BAL: Turn this control behind the FADE knob to move
the sound between the right and left speakers.
REW Press this button to reverse the tape rapidly. Press
REW, RCL or
STOP
to return to playing speed. If you
press RCL, the tape will also change sides.
