Switching the tape side
(autoreverse)
To change the tape direction during cassette
playback:
•
Press
briefly.
At the end of a tape side the mechanism
changes directions automatically to play the
other side (autoreverse). The display shows
“TR 1” for track (side) 1 or “TR 2” for track 2.
Notice:
If there is too much tension on the tape dur-
ing playback, the set may switch over by it-
self before having reached the end of the
tape side. In this case check the condition
of the cassette tape. Sometimes it helps to
rewind it completely.
Tape equalisation
When a metal or CrO
2
tape is inserted, the
tape mechanism automatically adjusts to
metal/CrO
2
tape equalisation.
Scanning cassette titles with
SCAN
You can have the cassette titles played brief-
ly by using the scan function. If you like a
title, stop the scan to continue listening to
that track.
To start/stop the scan function:
•
Press the SC button briefly.
Scan condition: There has to be an unre-
corded tape portion of at least 3 seconds
between the individual titles.
Listening to the radio during
fast tape winding with RM
(Radio Monitor)
When the tape is fast forwarded or rewound
(also with CPS), the radio will normally be
muted. In order to listen to the radio during
fast winding, you can activate the Radio
Monitor function.
For more information please refer to chap-
ter “DSC programming - RM ON/OFF”.
Care notes
To avoid possible problems, we recommend
you to use C-60/C-90 type cassette tapes
only. Store your tapes in a cool place away
from dirt, dust and temperatures exceeding
50
°
Celsius. Allow very cold tapes to warm
up before playing them in order to avoid
uneven tape transport. After approximately
100 hours of use, dust particles collected
on the playback head or roller may lead to
tape run problems and sound distortions.
Use a head cleaning tape to remove nor-
mal dirt build-up. For tougher cases, use a
cotton swab (Q-Tip) dipped in alcohol. Do
not attempt to clean by inserting a hard ob-
ject into the player!
