Reverse mode function

Recheck the tape direction settings (shown by the Deck A and Deck B direction indicators) before pressing the d or f button.

The following explanation assumes that the tape direction is forward ( s ).

Fast forward and rewind

To fast forward the tape, press the f button.

To rewind the tape, press the d button.

To stop either fast forward or rewind, press the e button.

It is always important to press the e button before the f or d buttons are used while the tape transport is active. This helps to reduce performance problems. (or to ensure long life and better performance from your new cassette deck we advice that:)

Automatic tape selection system

This deck automatically detects the type of cassette in the cassette holder and sets the bias and equalization to the correct settings. Tape selection is performed by detecting the presence or absence of identification pits on the back of the cassette shell. Cassettes manufactured before this identification system was adopted and bargain cassettes that do not incorporate these pits cannot be used with this deck.

Recheck the tape travel direction settings (shown by the Deck A and Deck B direction indicators) before beginning playback orrecord- ing.

The following explanation assumes that cassette side A is facing outward.

There is a silent gap about 10 seconds long when the direction of tape travel switches from forward to reverse or from reverse to

forward when the end of a tape side is reached.
