When either end of tape is reached in play,
record, fast-forward, or rewind mode, the

cally shut off, disengaging the present mode.
Note, however, that it is still necessary to turn
off the entire unit by pressing the power

CASSETTE TAPES

I To prevent possible trouble with the trans-
port mechanism, usa of large size cassette tapes,
such as C-1 20, is not recommended.

0 Handle cassette tapes with care. Keep
them away from heat, circulating dust, or a
magnetic field (e.g. on the TV set).

I Each cassette tape has safety tabs on its
back edge to prevent accidental ire-recording.
The tabs are provided for both sides of cassette
tape. Vou cannot record on the side whose tab
has been removed. The tab can be removed
with a screwdriver, etc. If you wish to record
on the side with no tab, place a piece of adhe-
sive tape, etc. over the opening where the tab
has been, then you can record.

W

-A loosened tape may cause trouble in
playback or recording. Check the tape before
loading it into the deck. If it is slack, insert a
pencil or the like into either of cassettes hubs,
and rotate it carefully until the slack is taken
up.
