❏ Listening to type I tape is suitable for this Cassette Deck.

One Touch Play

By pressing the TAPE A

3 or TAPE B 3 button, the System will

come on, and if a tape is in the deck, it will start to play. If no tape
is loaded, the operation is ignored.

Playing a Tape

You can use either Deck A or Deck B at a time for playback.

Press the

PUSH OPEN part for the deck

you want to use.

When the cassette holder opens, put a cas-
sette in, with the exposed part of the tape
down, toward the base of the Unit.

The tape will travel from the left to right.

• If the cassette holder does not open, turn the System off,

then back on and press the

0 PUSH OPEN part again.

Close the cassette holder gently.

When both Deck A and Deck B contain a tape, the last deck to
have a tape inserted is selected.

Press the TAPE A

button.

The selected Deck appears (for example, TAPE-A) and the
Deck indicator “A” or “B” lights up on the display.
The Tape indicator (

played back.
The Cassette Deck automatically stops when one side of the
tape has finished playing.

easily jam in the pinch-rollers and the capstans.
