Cassette Tape Messages
E (Error): If this message and a number appears
while trying to play a cassette tape, it could be one of
the following:
D
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.
D
E11: The tape is broken. Try a new tape.
D
E14: Wrapped tape. Try a new tape.
CLN (Clean): 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.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays an
error number, write it down and provide it to your dealer
when reporting the problem.
