FAST FORWARD AND REWIND
To advance the tape rapidly, press the FF button. To rewind the
tape, press the REW button. You can change from any operating
mode (except pause) directly into the fast forward or rewind mode,
because of the “logic control’’ system used in this machine.
FULL AUTO REWIND
When the tape reaches its end, it will stop automatically and the
REC, PLAY or FF lamp will go out. The END ALARM will sound for
10 seconds if the END ALARM switch is set to ON. Then, the REW
lamp will light and the tape will automatically rewind to the begin-
ning and stop.
APS (Automatic Programme Search) Switch
Use the APS switch to locate a beginning of the programmes on
a recorded tape.
Each time the REC button is pressed, a cue signal is recorded on
the tape. During the fast forward or rewind modes, if this switch is
set to ON, the recorder will detect the nearest cue signal and will
stop. Thus the starting point of a recorded programme may be easily
found.
If another programme on the tape must be relocated beyond the
position where the tape has stopped, press the FF or REW button
again.
