After inserting a cassette, press the TAPE SIZE selector but-
ton. Each press advances the Tape Size indicator from C90 to
C120, C46, C60 and then back to C90.
Set the size of the cassette to be used before starting
playback or recording.
Press the REMA/CONS button to switch the real time counter
to the “CONSUME” (elapsed) time mode.
To return the counter to [0:00], press the RESET button.
When tape transport begins in the record or play mode, the
counter will begin counting the elapsed time. (If you turn the
cassette over without resetting the counter, the total time in-
cluding the first side will be displayed.) The two digits on the
left side display minutes and the two digits on the right dis-
play seconds.
e The counter reads [0:00] “CONSUME” and the Tape Size in-
dicator reads “C90” when the power is first turned on.

propriate TAPE SIZE selector button again to set the correct
length (without stopping playback or recording) to obtain the
correct remaining time reading.

3. To Obtain the Most Accurate Time Indications Possible:
The real time counter is not a clock, so there may be slight dif-
ferences between the tape transport time as shown by the
counter and the actual time that has elapsed. Small differences in
tape lengths between different manufacturers can also cause
slight errors. To obtain a more precise reading of remaining time
near the end of a cassette, repeat the remaining time calculation
procedure. ff you insert a cassette of a different length, use the
TAPE SIZE selector button to set the new length.
e The remaining time is automatically recalculated when the
remaining time counter reaches [6:00]. The display changes
briefly to [CALC], then the new (more accurate) remaining time
is displayed.
1) If the wrong tape size has been selected, the remaining time
reading will differ significantly from the actual time remaining
on the cassette.
2) The correct elapsed time is maintained even when the deck is
in the remaining time mode.
3) The RESET button is used to reset the elapsed time reading.
4) When using a tape size other than those included in the Tape
Size indicator settings, set the Tape Size indicator to the size
closest to that of the cassette being used. In such cases there
will be a certain discrepancy between the actual elapsed and
remaining times and the values displayed. Slight differences
in the time displayed can also be caused by variations in the
internal construction of different cassettes.
Automatic Tape Selection System
This deck automatically detects the type of cassette in the cas-
sette holder and sets the bias and equalization to the correct set-
tings. 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
can not be used with this deck.
