Changing the tape cassette

1Lift open the tape compartment cover. The installed cassette is also released.

2If a tape cassette is already installed, remove it by pulling it straight up.

3If the ink ribbon in the tape cassette to be installed is loose, use your finger to wind the toothed wheel in the direction of the arrow on the cassette until there is no slack in the ribbon. Also, make sure that the end of the tape feeds under the tape guide.

￿If you are inserting a new tape cassette provided with a stopper, be sure to remove the stopper.

4Insert the tape cassette firmly into the tape compartment, making sure that the entire back of the cassette touches the bottom of the compartment.

￿When inserting the tape cassette, make sure that the ink ribbon does not catch on the corner of the metal guide.

5Securely close the tape compartment cover.
