Recheck the tape direction settings (shown
by the Deck A and Deck B direction
indicators) before pressing the
d
or
f

The following explanation assumes that the
tape direction is forward (

Fast forward and rewind
To fast forward the tape, press the
f

To rewind the tape, press the
d

• To stop either fast forward or rewind, press

while the tape transport is active. This

to ensure long life and better performance
from your new cassette deck we advice
that:)
Automatic tape selection system
This deck automatically detects the type of
cassette in the cassette holder and sets the
bias and equalization to the correct settings.
Tape selection is performed by detecting the
presence or absence of identification pits on
the back of the cassette shell. Cassettes
manufactured before this identification
system was adopted and bargain cassettes
that do not incorporate these pits cannot be
used with this deck.
