FUNCTIONS TO MAKE
RECORDING/PLAYBACK EASY
Cue and review function
During playback, you may skip-over unnecessary
portions of the tape by pressing the PR CUE
button or repeat a certain portion of the tape by
pressing the #4 REVIEW button.
When the Pb CUE or 44 REVIEW buttons is re-
leased, the recorder will automatically return to
the playback mode.
41 (pause) button
To stop the tape momentarily during recording,
playback or for recording level adjustment, push
the && button. To restart, push the Hl button
again. To stop the tape for an extended time, use
the 2 button.
Automatic shut-off mechanism
In the record or playback mode, tape motion
stops at the end of the tape and the locked but-
tons will return to their original position auto-
matically.
In the fast forward or rewind mode, tape motion
stops at the end of the tape and the motor will
stop. In this case, the locked button will not be
released automatically. Be sure to press the 2 @
button to release the B® CUE or <4 REVIEW
button.
Instant review function
During recording, you can listen to the material
just recorded with this function. To make an ins-
tant review, start the recording by depressing the
@ RECORD button. When the <4 REVIEW but-
ton is depressed, only the e RECORD button will
be released and the tape will be rewound. By re-
leasing the <4 REVIEW button, the recorder will
go into the playback mode.
Instant edit function
During playback, simply depress the e RECORD
button, and the recorder will immediately change
to the recording mode. This function is conveni-
ent for correcting previously recorded portions.
Tape counter for indexing the tape contents
Before recording, push the reset button to set
the counter to “000” and make a note of the
figures. This will help you to locate a desired pro-
gram on the tape.
To prevent accidental erasure
Break out the smail tabs on the rear of the cas-
sette. The e RECORD button cannot be depress-
ed if a cassette with its tabs broken out is used.
To reuse a cassette for recording after the tabs
have been removed, simply cover the slot with a
small piece of cellophane or viny! tape.
To make a blank erasure
@ Insert a cassette.
@ Ensure that nothing is connected to the LINE
IN/MIC jack.
© Set the REC LEVEL control to minimum.
@ Press the e RECORD button.

DEMAGNETIZING THE HEADS

amagnetized screwdriver or scissors will magne-
tize the heads causing an increase in tape noise.
In such a case, demagnetize the heads using a
commercially available head demagnetizer.
CLEANING THE CASING

moistened with water or a mild detergent solu-
tion. Do not use solvents such as alcohol, ben-
