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 the ignition is on, but the radio is off, the tape
will begin playing. If you hear nothing but a garbled
sound, the tape may not be in squarely. Press EJECT to
remove the tape and start over.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, FADE, BAL,
TREB, BASS and TONE controls just as you do for the
radio. The display will show TP with a box around it
and an arrow to show which side of the tape is playing.
Your tape bias is set automatically. When a metal or
chrome tape is inserted, HI-BIAS appears on the
display. If you want to insert a tape when the ignition is
off, first press EJECT or RCL.
If E and a number appear on the radio display, the tape
won't play because of an error.
E10: 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.
Ell: The tape is broken. Try a new tape.
IT
any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, please contact your retailer. If your radio
displays an error number, write it down and provide it to
your retailer when reporting the problem.
REV (1): Press this button to reverse the tape rapidly.
Press
it
again to return to playing speed. The radio will
play the last-selected station while the tape reverses. You
may select stations during
REV
operation by using TUNE.
