TAPE
o
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF SYSTEM
When either end Of tape is reached in play, record, fast-
forward, or rewind mode, the motor and transport mechanism
will automatically shut off, disengaging the present mode.
Note, however, that it is still necessary to turn off the entire
unit by pressing the power switch to off.
CASSETTE TAPES
• To prevent possible trouble with the transport mechanism,
use of large size cassette tapes, such as C-120, is not recom-
mended.
• Handle cassette tapes with care. Keep them away from
heat, circulating dust, or a magnetic field (e.g. on the TV set).
• Each cassette tape has safety tabs on its back edge to
prevent accidental re-recording.
The tabs are provided for both sides of cassette tape. You
cannot record on the side whose tab has been removed. The
tab can be removed with a screwdriver, etc. If you wish to
record on the side with no tab, place a piece of adhesive tape,
etc. over the opening where the tab has been, then you can
record.
• A loosened tape may cause trouble in playback or recor-
ding. Check the tape before loading it into the deck. If it is
slack, insert a pencil or the like into either of cassette's hubs,
and rotate it carefully until the slack is taken up.
