the control panel.
The tape is unthreaded and the cassette is automatically
ejected. This operation takes a few seconds.
To cancel the ejection before it is finished, press any of the
other operation buttons before the cassette is completely

To remove a cassette with the system powered
off
Proceed as follows if you need to remove a cassette with
the SRW-1 powered off, because the battery pack is
exhausted or for some other reason.
There is no need to return the screw to its original position
after you remove the cassette. Normal operation resumes
again the next time you power the system on.
For the method of ejecting the cassette after a slack error
(forcible eject), refer to the Maintenance Manual.
