EMERGENCY EJECT
Procedure to ejecting the tape manually in an emergency
If the cassette tape fails to be ejected even when the EJECT button is pressed, it can be ejected as follows.
z Follow the steps below after making absolutely sure that the unit’s power has been turned off.
1
Remove the top panel.
2
Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to push in the red plastic
gear (A) and turn it counterclockwise while keeping it
pushed in. The mechanism that winds up the tape is
activated by this, and it makes a latching sound. Ignore
the sound, and turn the gear through about 10
revolutions.
Turning the gear more than necessary will strain the
cassette, possibly resulting in tape damage.
3
Check that the posts have unloaded the tape and that the
tape is completely housed inside the cassette.
4
When the tape returns to the cassette case completely,
remove the cassette by pressing and turning the red
plastic gear (B) clockwise for front loading as shown in
the illustration.
When closing the cassette cover, take care not to catch
the tape.
