SELECTING A

LOCATION

The TAD-277 is designed to rest on a flat surface such as a desktop or countertop. Select a location that is:

•Near an AC outlet

•Near a modular telephone line jack

2.Lift open the cassette compart- ment door.

If the phone line jack is not a modular jack, you must update the wiring. You can convert the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available at your local RadioShack store. Or, you can let the phone company update the wir- ing for you. The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C.

LOADING THE

CASSETTE

Your TAD-277 comes with an MC-60 cassette tape (30 minutes of recording time per side). You can buy additional and different length cassettes at your local RadioShack store.

1.Turn the supplied cassette’s hub with the tip of a pencil to take up any tape slack.

3.Put the cassette in the compart- ment with its full reel toward the back of the system and its open edge to the right.

4. Close the compartment door.

Notes:

•You can turn the tape over and record on the other side. This lets you save any messages recorded on the first side while using the tape to record more messages.

•Replace the tape at least once a year, or more often if it is used fre- quently.
