NOTES:
- Make sure the direction is correct when inserting a tape into the cassette slot – see line drawing.
- Some searching noise will be heard, this is quite normal.
- The system cannot perform the normal playback function during Fast Forward mode.
- It is strongly recommended the cassette tape is removed from the Cassette Player slot after each use - don’t
leave the cassette tape inside the system when you do not intend to play it
.
CASSETTE CARE
Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:
1. Tape jamming, leading to uneven speed during playback.
2. Tape entangling, when the tape wraps itself around vital parts of the mechanism.
To avoid these problems occurring, take the following precautions:
a) Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the cassette centre window
(see fig. 1).
b) Take up any loose layers, using a pencil or hexagonally barrelled ballpoint pen, before
inserting the cassette (see fig. 2).
NOTES: If the cassette feels tight whilst performing this operation (see fig. 2), the tape
may be jamming due to ridges formed in the winding of the tape (visible through the centre
window). In most cases, these may be removed by fast rewinding of the cassette from
one end to the other, turning it over and repeating this action again.
Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, dust or oil, and do not touch the tape surfaces.
