EMERGENCY EJECT

Procedure to ejecting the tape manually in an emergency

If the cassette tape fails to be ejected even when the EJECT button is pressed, it can be ejected as follows.

zFollow the steps below after making absolutely sure that the unit’s power has been turned off.

1 Remove the top panel.

2 Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to push in the red plastic gear (A) and turn it counterclockwise while keeping it pushed in. The mechanism that winds up the tape is activated by this, and it makes a latching sound. Ignore the sound, and turn the gear through about 10 revolutions.

<Note>

Turning the gear more than necessary will strain the cassette, possibly resulting in tape damage.

3 Check that the posts have unloaded the tape and that the tape is completely housed inside the cassette.

4 When the tape returns to the cassette case completely, remove the cassette by pressing and turning the red plastic gear (B) clockwise for front loading as shown in the illustration.

<Note>

When closing the cassette cover, take care not to catch the tape.
