One Touch Play
By pressing the TAPE A 3 or TAPE B 3 button, the System will

come on and wait for you to insert a tape, or select another func-
tion.

Playing a Tape

You can use either Deck A or Deck B at a time for playback.
1Press the 0 PUSH OPEN part for the deck
you want to use.
2When the cassette holder opens, put a cas-
sette in, with the exposed part of the tape
down, toward the base of the Unit.
The tape will travel from the left to right.
• If the cassette holder does not open, turn the System off,
then back on and press the 0 PUSH OPEN part again.
3Close the cassette holder gently.
When both Deck A and Deck B contain a tape, the last deck to
have a tape inserted is selected.
4Press the TAPE A 3 or TAPE B 3 button.
The selected Deck appears (for example, TAPE-A) and the
Deck indicator “A” or “B” lights up on the display.
The Tape indicator (3) blinks on the display and the tape is
played back.
The Cassette Deck automatically stops when one side of the
tape has finished playing.
To stop playing, press the 7 button.
To remove the tape, stop the tape, and press the 0 PUSH
OPEN part to open the Cassette Holder.

easily jam in the pinch-rollers and the capstans.
