Playing a Cassette Tape
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer
than that are so thin they may not work well in this player.
The longer side with the tape visible should face to the
right. If the ignition is on, but the radio is off, the tape can
be inserted and will begin playing. A tape symbol is
shown on the display whenever a tape is inserted. If you
hear nothing but a garbled sound, the tape may not be in
squarely. Press EJT to remove the tape and start over.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, FADE, BAL,
TREB, BASS, and SEEK controls just as you do for the
radio. The display will show TAPE and an arrow
showing which side of the tape is playing.
If you want to insert a tape when the ignition is off,
first press EJT or DISP.
PREV (1): Press this button to go to the beginning of
the current selection. If the PREV button is pressed
and the current selection has been playing from 3 to
13 seconds, it will go to the beginning of the previous
selection. If you press the button more than once, the
player will continue moving back through the tape.
SEEK and a negative number will appear on the display.
Your tape must have at least three seconds of silence
between each selection for PREV to work. The sound
will mute while seeking.
NEXT (2): Press this button to go to the next selection
on the tape. If you press the button more than once,
the player will continue moving forward through the
tape. SEEK and a positive number will appear on the
display. Your tape must have at least three seconds of
silence between each selection for NEXT to work.
The sound will mute while seeking.
REV (3): Press this button to reverse the tape rapidly.
Press it again to return to playing speed. The radio will
play the last selected station while the tape reverses.
You may select stations during REV operation by using
TUNE, SEEK and P SCAN controls.
FWD (4): Press this button to advance quickly to
another part of the tape. Press the button again to return
to playing speed. The radio will play the last selected
station while the tape advances. You may select stations
during FWD operation by using TUNE, SEEK and
P SCAN controls.
SIDE (5): Press this button to play the other side of
the tape.
