CASSETTE DECK OPERATION
The System 731’s cassette deck lets
you play your favorite cassette tapes
or record from the CD changer or ra-
dio. If you connected an additional
audio source, you can also record
from it (see “Recording from an Addi-
tional Audio Source”).
Notes:
• The remote control does not
operate the System 731’s cas-
sette deck.
• The System 731’s Automatic
Level Control (ALC) feature
automatically adjusts the record-
ing level. The settings of
VOL-
UME
,
X-BASS
, and
ROCK
,
POP
,
or
CLASSIC
have no effect on
the recording.
• Tape quality greatly affects the
quality of the recording. We rec-
ommend regular length (60- or
90-minute) cassette tapes. We
do not recommend long-play
cassette tapes, such as C-120s,
because they are thin and can
easily tangle in the cassette
mechanism. For low-noise,
wide-range recordings, use
normal-bias tape.
• Before you load a cassette tape
for recording, turn the cassette’s
hub with your finger or a pencil
to take up and slack and move
the tape past its leader. (Avoid
touching the tape with your fin-
gers.)
• Before recording, be sure the
cassette tape’s erase-protection
tabs are in place. See “Prevent-
ing Accidental Erasure.”
LOADING A TAPE
1. Press
STOP/EJECT
to open the
cassette compartment door.
2. Insert the cassette tape into the
tape guides with the exposed
tape edge facing down, the side
you want to play facing you, and
the full reel to the left.
3. Close the door.
