Stereo Sound System (cont'd)
Metal
The circuit senses silent passages between songs or programs on a
tape. Push upward to automatically advance to the beginning of the
next song, or downward to return to the beginning of the song just
played.
If the cassette contains metal tape (chromium-dioxide or CrO
2
)
,
you
will see "MTL" displayed. The system adjusts automatically for the
special frequency characteristics of metal tape.
Eject
To stop the tape, push the Eject knob firmly. The radio will come on
and the cassette will pop out for easy removal. The cassette should
always be removed when not in use.
Ignition Key-off Eject: The cassette in play will automatically eject
when the ignition or the radio is turned off. This is to protect the tape
head and pinch rollers from unnecessary wear.
When the tape in play reaches the end, the Auto-Reverse feature
automatically reverses the tape direction. This feature allows the
tape to continually play the other side of the tape until the tape is
ejected.
CLEAN Indicator Light
After 30 hours of cassette tape play, the light comes on as a reminder
to clean the tape heads. To reset, push and hold the indicator with a
pointed instrument such as a ball-point pen until the light goes off
(about 3 seconds).
