The Cassette Deck allows you to play, record, and dub audio tapes.

Listening to type I tape is suitable for this Cassette Deck.

The use of tapes longer than 120 minutes is not rec- ommended, since characteristic deterioration may occur and these tapes easily jam in the pinch-rollers and the capstans.
