Connecting the Deck to an Amplifier
• Before connecting the deck to your amplifier, please review your
amplifier’s instruction manual.
• Use the white plugs for the left channel and red plugs for the right
channel.
2
Tape Dubbing
• Many stereo amplifiers and receivers have tape dubbing circuitry so that
tape duplication can be performed between two or more tape decks.
Review your amplifier’s instruction manual for a full explanation of this
mode of operation.

Connecting Headphones
To listen through headphones, plug your headphones into the PHONES
jack.

Installation Precautions
If the deck is placed near an amplifier, TV or tuner, noise (induced hum) or
beat interference may result, especially during FM or AM reception. If this
occurs, place the deck further away from other components or reorient its
position.
Caution:
A mechanical sound is heard the first time the power switch is set to “ON”
after the power cord is plugged into an outlet. This is the sound of the
cassette mechanism being set to the proper operating state, and is normal.
(When using an AC outlet on a r eceiver or amplifier, used an
“UNSWITCHED” outlet.)
