CASSETTE DECK OPERATION

The System 730 has a dual cassette deck system which lets you automat- ically play two cassette tapes con- secutively, record from the CD changer, record one cassette tape onto another, and more.

•Before recording, be sure the cassette tape’s erase-protection tabs are in place. See “Prevent- ing Accidental Erasure.”

LOADING A TAPE

Notes:

•The remote control does not operate the System 730’s cas- sette deck.

•The System 730’s Automatic Level Control (ALC) feature automatically adjusts the record- ing level. The settings of VOL- UME, X-BASS, and ROCK, POP, or CLASSIC have no effect on the recording.

•Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. We rec- ommend regular length (60- or 90-minute) cassette tapes. We do not recommend long-play cassette tapes, such as C-120s, because they are thin and can easily tangle in the cassette mechanism. For low-noise, wide-range recordings, use nor- mal-bias tape.

•Before you load a cassette tape for recording, turn the cassette’s hub with your finger or a pencil to take up any slack and move the tape past its leader. (Avoid touching the tape with your fin- gers.)

1.Press STOP/EJECT on the desired tape deck (TAPE 1 or TAPE 2) to open the cassette compartment door.

Note: TAPE 1 only plays prere- corded cassette tapes. TAPE 2 both plays back and records.

2.Insert the cassette tape into the tape guides with the exposed tape edge facing down, the side you want to play facing you, and the full reel to the left.

3. Close the door.
