*When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well. For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.

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 120minutes (including 120 minute tapes) is not recommended, since char- acteristic deterioration may occur and these tapes easily jam in the pinch-rollers and the capstans.

One Touch Play

By pressing the TAPE A 3or TAPE B 3button, the System will come on, and if a tape is in the deck, it will start to play. If no tape is loaded, “NO TAPE” appears on the display, the System will come on and wait for you to insert a tape, or select another function.

Playing a Tape

You can use either Deck A or Deck B at a time for playback.

1 Press the 0 PUSH OPEN part for the deck you want to use.

2 When the cassette holder opens, put a cassette in, with the exposed part of the tape down, toward the base of the Unit.

The tape will travel from the left to right.

Tape travelling direction

If the cassette holder does not open, turn the System off, then back on and press the 0PUSH OPEN part again.

3 Close the cassette holder gently.

When both Deck A and Deck B contain a tape, the last deck to have a tape inserted is selected.

4 Press the TAPE A 3or TAPE B 3button.

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 7button.

To remove the tape, stop the tape, and press the 0 PUSH OPEN part to open the Cassette Holder.

To Fast-Wind a Tape

During playback or in Stop mode, press the Á(FF) button on the Unit to fast-wind the tape onto the right side of the cassette without playing. (You can also use the ¢button on the Remote Control.) During playback or in Stop mode, press the 22(REW) button on the Unit to fast-wind the tape onto the left side of the cassette without playing. (You can also use the 4button on the Remote Con- trol.)

During fast-winding the tape, the Tape indicator (3) goes out. During fast-winding, the status bar illumination at the bottom of the display moves counterclockwise.

During rewinding, it moves clockwise.

The Cassette Deck automatically stops when one side of the tape has finished playing.

During fast-winding the tape, you can change the tape travelling direction by pressing the Á(FF) or 22(REW) button.
