2 Connecting the Deck to an Amplifier 2 Installation Precautions

•Before connecting the deck to your amplifier, please review your amplifier’s instruction manual.

•Use the white plugs for the left channel and red plugs for the right channel.

2Tape Dubbing

•Many stereo amplifiers and receivers have tape dubbing circuitry so that tape duplication can be performed between two or more tape decks. Review your amplifier’s instruction manual for a full explanation of this mode of operation.

2Connecting Headphones

To listen through headphones, plug your headphones into the PHONES jack.

If the deck is placed near an amplifier, TV or tuner, noise (induced hum) or beat interference may result, especially during FM or AM reception. If this occurs, place the deck further away from other components or reorient its position.

Caution:

A mechanical sound is heard the first time the power switch is set to “ON” after the power cord is plugged into an outlet. This is the sound of the cassette mechanism being set to the proper operating state, and is normal. (When using an AC outlet on a receiver or amplifier, used an “UNSWITCHED” outlet.)
