NOTES ABOUT CASSETTE TAPES

Cassette tapes

• YAMAHA does not recommend the use of cassettes over 120 minutes in length since the extreme thinness of the tape

makes them susceptible to mechanical and recording problems.

• Since this unit automatically detects the tape type, you can use any type of tape.

Taking up slack in the tape

Before loading a tape on the tray, tighten the slack portion of tape with a pen or pencil.
