Setting the Tone
BASS: Press this knob lightly so it extends. Turn the
knob to increase or decrease bass. When you use this
control, the radio’s tone setting will switch to manual.
TREB: Press this knob lightly so it extends. Then pull
the knob all the way out. Turn the knob to increase or
decrease treble. When you use this control, the radio’s
tone setting will switch to manual. If a station is weak or
noisy, you may want to decrease the treble.
Push the knob back into its stored position when you’re
not using it.
TONE: This feature allows you to choose preset bass and
treble equalization settings designed for jazz, vocal, pop,
rock and classical stations. JAZZ will appear on the
display when you first press TONE. Each time you press
it, another setting will appear on the display. Press it again
after CLASSIC appears and MANUAL will appear.
Manual tone control will return to the BASS and TREB
knobs. Also, if you use the BASS and TREB knobs,
control will return to them and MANUAL will appear.
Adjusting the Speakers
BAL: Press this knob lightly so it extends. Turn the knob
to move the sound to the left or right speakers. The middle
position balances the sound between the speakers.
FADE: Press the knob lightly so it extends. Then pull
the knob all the way out. Turn it to move the sound to
the front or rear speakers. The middle position balances
the sound between the speakers.
Push the knob back into its stored position when you’re
not using it.
Playing a Cassette Tape
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that
are up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes
longer than that are so thin they may not work well in
this player.
The longer side with the tape visible should face to the
right. If the ignition is on, but the radio is off, the tape
can be inserted and will begin playing. If you hear
nothing but a garbled sound, the tape may not be in
squarely. Press EJECT to remove the tape and start over.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, FADE, BAL,
TREB, BASS, TONE, SEEK and SCAN controls just as
you do for the radio. Other controls may have different
functions when a tape is inserted. The display will show
TP with a box around it and an arrow to show which
side of the tape is playing.
