AUTOMATIC TAPE SELECTION 

This Stereo Cassette Deck contains an automatic tape selector which automatically selects 
the optimum bias and equalization for the tape in use. This is accomplished by detection of 
the tape type detections holes in the cassette housing. 

PLAYBACK 

•  If a tape without tape type detection holes is used, the deck will be set for 

normal tapes. 

•  The operations described below apply to deck A and deck B alike.  
•  Switch on your amplifier or receiver. 
•  Set the Tape Monitor switch on your amplifier or receiver to the TAPE position. 
•  The numbers in the illustration below depict the order in which operation steps are 

carried out. 

 

Press the POWER switch to the ON position.

 

 

Press the EJECT button to open the cassette compartment cover.

 

 

 

Load the cassette tape and close the cassette compartment cover.

 

 

 

 

 

 

When listening to a tape that has been recorded with Dolby noise reduction, set the 
DOLBY NR button to match the system used at the time of recording. 
Pressing the DOLBY NR button selects Dolby noise reduction type B  
(and the "B" indicator lights up). 
One more press of the DOLBY NR button selects Dolby noise reduction type C  
(and the "C" indicator lights up). 

 

Pressing the DOLBY NR button once again switches Dolby noise reduction off.

 

 

  

 

 

 

Press the PLAY button to begin playback. The PLAY (4 or D) indicator 
will light during playback.

• 

In the continuous playback mode (REVERSE MODE), playback 
of both tape sides will be repeated 5 times and then stop 
automatically. 

• 

If different types of Dolby noise reduction are used for record and 

 

playback, playback response will be adversely effected. 

•  When power is turned off during tape transport, it may not be possible to remove the 

cassette by pressing the EJECT button. In this case, turn on power again before you
