• Operating Procedure
CASSETTE INSERTION
AC MAINS OPERATION
Set all volume controls to '0' position and keep the power
switch at OFF position. Connect the speakers and required
inputs.
Plug in the AC power supply cord to the nearest AC mains
socket and put the power switch to POWER position. The pilot
LED should glow.
Adjust the volume and tone controls to the desired level in the
following manner:
1. The BASS and TREBLE controls should be set at ‘0’ (Flat)
position.
2. Move the volume control of MIC-1 channel slowly to the
desired sound level but not up to the point where howling
and feedback starts.
3. Now repeat the same for MIC-2, MIC-3 and so on.
4. When playing a tape, keep the MIC-3 / TAPE switch at
TAPE position.
5. The tape can be advanced rapidly by pressing the FF key.
6. The tape can be rewound rapidly by pressing the REW
key.
7. To stop the tape, press the STOP / EJECT key. To eject the
tape, press this key a second time.
8. Due to the Auto Stop system, the cassette stops
automatically when the tape comes to an end in play
mode.
100V Line
When it is desired to connect speakers or driver units at a
distance over 50 meters, it is recommended that the 100V line
output be used together with line matching transformer for
each speaker. This prevents excessive power loss in the
speaker cables.
100V Line output is provided on a separate terminal strip with
its COM separate from low impedance speaker connections.
This provides facility for floating or grounding of long line
installations. For floating, disconnect the shorting link
between earth terminal and COM of 100V Line output strip.
Since this is a front loading cassette player, the cassette is to
be loaded with the exposed tape portion facing down and the
full reel of tape towards the left.

USING THE TONE CONTROLS
The Bass and Treble controls should be individually set to the
desired level as explained below.
BASS:
This controls the tonal quality of low frequencies
produced by musical instruments like Tabla / Drum etc., and to
some extent male human voice. When this control is
advanced towards BOOST position, it will boost i.e. increase
the intensity of the low frequencies. Similarly, when it is
lowered towards CUT position, it will cut i.e. reduce the
intensity of low frequencies.
TREBLE:
This controls the tonal quality of high frequencies
produced by musical instruments like Violin, Sarangi and
Sitar etc. and to some extent female human voice. When the
control is advanced towards BOOST position, it will boost i.e.
increase the intensity of high frequencies. Similarly, when
lowered, towards CUT position, it will cut i.e. reduce the
intensity of high frequencies.
FM RADIO OPERATION
Put the FM / MIC-2 Switch in FM position.
Tune to the desired FM station by rotating the Tuning Knob.
FM Antenna Screw Strip has been provided for optimizing the
reception of the tuner by connecting an external antenna.
In case of strong local stations, or when the equipment is situated
near a transmitting station, the external antenna may not be
required. In case of fringe areas where the signal is very weak, a
diapole antenna may be connected to the antenna terminals with
the help of 2-way ribbon wire.
PRECAUTION
1. Do not use this unit in high ambient temperature.
2. Before the cassette tape is inserted into the cassette slot,
loose tape must be tightened up to avoid its entangling with
the pinch roller.
3. Speaker impedance mismatch may cause insufficient output
or overheating of the components, which may lead to failure of
the components. Check and make sure that the impedance of
the speakers is equal to or greater than the selected
impedance on the output terminal strip.
4. Use of C-120 cassette is not recommended as it is extremely
thin and may cause problems.
