Cassette
Holder
Open
the
Cassette
Holder
Protective
Door
and
note
these
points
about
the
cassette
Holder:
a.
A
miniature
"spotlight"
is
provided
which
lights
when
power
is
applied
to
illuminate
the
Cassette
Holder
Tray
and
head
area.
The
convenient
"spotlight"
allows
you
to
see
the
loaded
cassette
tape
through
the
closed
transparent
protective
door.
It
also
makes
it
easy
to
see
the
heads
and
tape
path
when
the
door
is
open
and
the
cassette
tape
removed
during
cleaning
and
inspection.
b.
The
unique,
guide
ramp
which
allows
you
to
slide
the
cassette
tape
into
place
at
the
summit
of
the
transport
mechanism.
The
EJECT
Key
must
be
depressed
to
raise
the
cassette
tray
for
insertion
or
removal
of
the
cassette
tape.
Do
not
force
the
tape
against
the
closed
cassette
tray.
Prior
to
transport
or
shipping
the
cassette
tray
should
be
depressed
by
hand
to
protect
the
transport
mechaoism
from
unnecessary
shock
or
vibration.
But,
be
sure
to
depress
the
EJECT
Key
prior
to
loading
a
cassette
tape.
Slide
the
Cassette
Tape
up
the
Guide
Ramp
until
the
tape
drops
into
place
at
the
top
of
the
ramp
and
gently
press
down
on
the
tape
to
insure
proper
positioning
of
the
tape.
EQ
(Equalization)
Tape
decks
do
not
record
and
reproduce
all
audio
frequencies
at
the
same
level.
Various
tapes
also
produce
different
output
levels
for
different
frequencies.
To
compensate
for
these
factors
manufacturers
have
added
cir
cuitry
to
try
to
restore
the
"flatness"
of
the
original
music.
This
circuitry
is
called
equali
zation
and
is
standardized
throughout
the
audio
industry
to
provide
compatibility
between
tape
decks
made
by
various
manu
facturers.
The
A-100
incorporates
a
2-
position
EQ
switch
that
allows
you
to
select
the
equalization
that
best
matches
the
tape
you
will
be
using.
Select
Cr0
2
position
for
70
microsecond
equalization
for
the
tapes
listed
in
the
upper
and
middle
sections
of
the
chart
below
as
well
as
most
other
Cr0
2
and
FeCr
type
tape.
Select
NORMAL
position
for
120
micro
second
equalization
to
match
the
tapes
listed
in
the
lower
section
of
the
chart
below
and
for
most
other
Hi
Fi
or
Low
noise
types
of
tape.
