Always check that the tape is wound tightly inside the take-up spool on

the cassette. If the tape is loose, wind it with a six-sided pencil.

playcr.

temperature is near or below freezing.

CLEANING OF TAPE HEAD & CAPSTAN

Since the tapes contain oxides, you will find black residue building up

on the tape head and drive capstan (inside cassette door). These

residues should be cleaned after 50 to 100 hours of accumulated tape

operation. You can either clean them by hand, with a cotton swab

slightly damp with alcohol (do not use any petroleum solvent) or a

commercial tape head cleaning solution available at most stereo

stores. Or you can use a special cleaning cassette (also available at

stereo stores) that automatically cleans the head and capstan when

inserted.

DEMAGNETIZING

The movement of the magnetic tape across the head and metal par1s

of the tape player causes a magnetic field to develop. We recommend

you have the tape player demagnetized at least twice annually. You

can buy an inexpensive demagnetizing tool or have a stereo shop do

it for you.

1. ON/OFF SWITCHNOLUME CONTROL

Rotate this knob to the right to turn the radio on. Continue rotation until

the desired volume level is obtained.

2. TONE CONTROL

Allows you to emphasize bass or treble tones to suit your listening

preference. Rotate clockwise to increase treble, counterclockwise to

increase bass.

3. LEFT/RIGHT BALANCE CONTROL

Allows you to adjust stereo balance between left and right speakers.

Rotate clockwise to emphasize right speaker. counterclockwise to em-

phasize left speaker.

4. AM/FM SELECTOR

T o change from AM to FM band depress this button. In the in-position you

will receive FM and FM Stereo broadcasts. In the outward position

(depress and release) you will receive AM broadcast.

5. MANUAL TUNING

By rotating the knob you can manually change the station. When using

this control to select a station always adjust it so you are receiving the full

signal (exactly in the center of the broadcast frequency).

6. STEREO INDICA TOR (RED)

This will illuminate whenever you have selected a stereo station. If the

light flickers or goes on and off as you drive it is an indication that the

stereo signal is too weak to reproduce and you should select another

station.

7. ANTENNA TRIMMER

It is very important to adjust the ANTENNA TRIMMER for optimum AM

reception. Antenna trimmer is located at the back in the tape slot. Tune

in a weak station around 1400KHz and adjust the trimmer with a small

screw driver for maximum output.

8. lOCAl-DISTANTSWITCH

This two position switch is incorporated to allow maximum reception in

both weak and strong FM signal areas. When tuned to a weak (distant)

station push switch in. This will allow maximum signal to the receiver.

When in an extremely strong signal area (local), release switch. This will

eliminate all weak signals and suppress overly strong signals so as to

avoid overloading the receiver input. When moving out of a strong signal

area, return switch to the "distant" position.

Note: The local-Distant switch only affects FM signals.

9. CASSETTE SlOT

Hold the cassette with the expos~d tape edge to the right and insert into

the cassette slot. Depress fully until the cassette is engaged. It will start

playing immediately.

Note: Check that the tape is tightly wound on the spools before inserting.

C-120 (120 minutes) cassettes should not be used as the tape tangles

easily,

10. FAST-FORWARD/EJECT BUTTON

This button performs two functions. Tb eject a cassette simply depress

this button fully then release. The cassette will eject for easy removal.

This button also allows you to rapidly advance the tape so you can skip

any undesired tape programs. To use fast-forward, depress button half-

way in to the locked position. To stop fast-forward, depress button slightly

(do not press fully in or cassette will eject) and release. The tape will

resume normal speed.
