2: plays the reverse side.

•If no cassette is inserted, “NO TAPE” appears on the display.

When the tape plays to the end, the deck automatically stops if the Reverse Mode is off. (See “To play both sides repeatedly—Reverse Mode.”)

To stop playing, press 7.

4(1) / ¢ (Á) on the remote control) while the tape is not running.

The tape direction indicator (3 or 2) starts flashing quickly on the display.

The use of the C-120 or thinner tape is not recommended, since characteristic deterioration may occur and this tape easily jams in the pinch- rollers and the capstans.

To find the beginning of the current song

During play, press 1 or Á (or 4 (1) / ¢(Á) on the

remote control) in the opposite direction to the tape play.

The tape direction indicator of the

opposite direction to the tape play starts flashing intermittently.

Searching stops automatically at the beginning of the current song, and the current song starts automatically.

To find the beginning of the next song

During play, press 1 or Á (or 4 (1) / ¢(Á) on the

remote control) in the same direction as the tape play.

The tape direction indicator of the

same direction as the tape play starts flashing intermittently.

Searching stops automatically at the beginning of the next song, and the next song starts automatically.

Music Scan works by detecting a 4-second long blank between each song, so it will not work well in the following cases

•No blank at the beginning of a song.

•Noise (often caused by much use or poor quality dubbing) which fills the blank.

•Long, very soft passages or pauses in a song.
