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.
With the radio on, insert a cassette tape. Once the tape is
playing, use the control knobs for VOL, BAL, FADE,
BASS and TREB just as you do for the radio. A lighted
cassette 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.
PREV (1): Press PREV or the SEEK down arrow to
search for the previous selection. A minimum
-
three second blank gap is needed for the player to stop
at the beginning of the selection. The tape direction
arrow will blink during the SEEK operation and the
sound will mute in this mode.
NEXT (2): Press NEXT or the SEEK up arrow to
search for the next selection. The tape direction arrow
will blink during the SEEK operation and the sound will
mute in this mode.
(4): Press this button to reduce background tape noise
(noise reduction is only available in the cassette mode).
-
The double D symbol will appear on the display.
REV (5): Press this button to rapidly reverse the tape.
The tape will rapidly reverse to the beginning of the
cassette reel or until you press REV again. Use the
SEEK button or the TUNE knob to play the radio during
REV. The radio plays the last selected station.
FWD (6): Press this button to rapidly advance the tape.
The tape will rapidly advance to the end of the cassette
reel or until you press FWD again. Use the SEEK button
or the TUNE knob to play the radio during FWD. The
radio plays the last selected station.
PROG: Press this button on the remote cassette player
to go from one side of the tape to the other.
CD/PLAY: After a cassette tape and a CD have been
inserted, press the CD/PLAY button to switch between
the CD player and the cassette tape player. Both features
cannot be played at the same time.
EJECT: Press this button on the remote cassette player
to remove the tape. EJECT can be used with either the
ignition or radio off. Also, you must press EJECT before
loading a cassette with the radio off to allow loading.
CLN: 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" in the Index. After you clean the player, press and
hold RECALL on the radio and the EJECT button on the
remote cassette at the same time for five seconds to reset
the CLN indicator. The radio will display
indicator was reset.
