Handling Cassette Tapes
Caution
< Do not open the cassette or pull the tape out of the cassette.
<
Do not touch the tape surface.
<
Do not use or store the tape in a humid or dusty place.
<
Keep the tape away from any magnetic sources, such as
speakers or TVs, otherwise noise may be produced during
playback or important recordings may be erased.
Cassette tapes that you should not use
Poor performance, errors, or malfunctions may result if you
use any of the tapes described below. Some of these tapes
may also cause tape clog problems that can damage the tape
transport mechanism.
Cassettes that are imperfectly shaped
Do not use a deformed cassette or one that has unstable tape
movement or makes a strange sound during fast-forward or
rewind.
Long play tapes
Do not use C-120 or longer tapes. These tapes are very thin
and can easily stretch or get tangled in the tape transport
mechanism.
Endless tapes
Do not use these tapes because they can easily get tangled in
the tape transport mechanism.
Automatic tape type detection function
This cassette deck can detect what type of tape is being used
based on the detection holes in the cassette shell. Be sure to
use cassettes with detection holes.
<
With this cassette deck, you can play back normal (Type I),
chrome (Type
II) and metal (Type IV ) tapes. For recording, use
normal (Type
I) or chrome (Type II) tapes.
<
Each deck (TAPE I and TAPE II) is equipped with its own auto
tape type detection function, so you can use different types
of tape at the same time.
Tape slack
Slack can cause the tape to get tangled in the capstan or
other rotating parts. To prevent this, take up all tape slack
using a pencil or the like inserted into the reel hole.

Accidental erasure prevention tabs
Tabs on top of the cassette shell allow you to prevent
important recordings from being erased by mistake. There are
two tabs on each cassette shell: one for side “A” and the
other for side “B”.
Once these tabs have been removed using a screwdriver or
the like, there is absolutely no chance of the recording
function being activated.
To record on a cassette whose tab has been broken off, stick
a piece of adhesive tape over the hole. Be careful not to block
the tape type detection holes.
Dolby NR
Dolby NR is designed to reduce tape hiss, a noise introduced
during the recording and playback processes. This cassette
deck is equipped with Dolby B-type Noise Reduction.
The Dolby NR system affects both recording and playback
quality. In playback, be sure to set the DOLBY NR switch to
the same position used when the recording was made.

Using the Remote Control Unit
Cautions when using the remote control unit
<
Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor of the
cassette deck and operate the remote control unit at a
distance of no more than 5 meters. Do not place objects
between the remote control unit and remote sensor.
<
Direct sunlight or very bright light will reduce the sensitivity of
the remote sensor. If this is the case, use the control buttons
on the cassette deck instead of the remote buttons.
<
It is possible that other infrared-ray-sensitive equipment
nearby may malfunction when you operate the remote
control.
Loading batteries into the remote control unit
Remove the lid of the battery compartment, load two “AA”
sized batteries in the indicated directions, and then replace
the lid. When inserting batteries, be sure to observe proper
polarity (+ and –).
If you have to put the remote control unit quite close to the
remote sensor or if any remote buttons do not work, then
the batteries are no longer fit for use and must be
replaced.
Be sure to always replace both batteries at once.
Important Cautions for Handling Batteries
Improper battery use can result in leakage or rupture. Observe
the following instructions:
< Load the batteries in the correct direction as indicated in the
battery compartment.
< Do not mix old and new batteries, or mix different types or
brands of battery.
< Do not heat, disassemble, or throw batteries into fire or
water.
< Do not store or carry batteries together with other small metal
objects. Doing so can cause battery shorting, leakage or
rupture.
<
Do not try to recharge dry batteries.
<
When the cassette deck is not going to be used for a long
time (more than one month), take the batteries out of the
battery compartment.
<
If leakage into the battery compartment is observed, wipe up
any liquid inside the compartment and load new batteries.

Song Search
m,m,
This cassette deck is equipped with the Computomatic
Program Search (CPS) function. This function detects blank
spaces (longer than 4 seconds) between songs and fast-winds
the tape in the forward or backward direction skipping over
the specified number of songs, thus allowing direct access to
the beginning of a desired song. CPS can skip up to 20 songs
ahead of or behind the current song.
When you press the m
or , button during playback, the
tape counter reads “CP 01” and the tape starts running at
high speed in the pressed direction. Each time you press the
same direction button, the displayed number increases by one
integer. The number decreases as you press the opposite
direction button.
<
If you are listening to a song and want to go back to the
previous song, press the locator button opposite to the
playback direction twice. Pressing it just once will take you
back to the beginning of the current song. Each additional
press of the button will take you back one song.
