Making A Tape Recording

This model allows you to make tape recordings directly from the CD player, or the radio.

•Refer to “Playing Compact Discs” if necessary to operate the CD player.

•Refer to “Listening To The Radio” if necessary to tune in the station you wish to record from radio.

1.) Press the STOP/EJECT key to open the cassette door.

2.) Insert a good quality blank cassette tape into the slot insde the cassette door with the open end facing up and the full reel on the right.

Use normal tape only. Do not use tape identified as “CrO2”(Chrome) or “Metal” tape formulations.

For best results use tapes of 60 minutes (C-60) or less. Do not use 90 minute or 120 minute tapes as these thinner tapes are more likely to jam in the mechanism.

3.) Close the cassette door.

4.) When you are ready to start recording press the RECORD key. The PLAY key will also engage. The CD you are playing, or radio program you selected will be recorded directly on to the tape.

5.) Press the PAUSE key during recording to stop the tape temporarily and avoid recording unwanted material such as radio commercials.

6.) When you have finished recording press the	STOP/EJECT key to stop
and remove the tape.

BEAT CUT Switch (On back Cabinet)

Occasionally when recording from the AM radio a repetitive whistle or ‘beat’sound may be heard. If this occurs slide the BEAT CUT switch to its other position to eliminate the unwanted sound.
