General Description

TO PLAY A CASSETTE
To load a tape with the ignition off, press EJECT or RCL, then insert the cassette. If the ignition is on, but the radio is off, the tape will begin playing. Note the tape symbol shown in the center of the graphic display whenever a tape is inserted. When the tape is active, the tape symbol will be accompanied by a direction arrow indicating which side of the tape is being played.

Once the tape is playing, use VOL, FADE, TREB and BASS just as you did for radio. The player automatically senses the cartridge for metal or CR02 and sets the pre-emphasis. For metal-biased tapes, the graphic display will denote metal bias with an indicator. Any time a tape is inserted, the top side is selected for play first.

PREVIOUS (PREV)
Press SEEK down or PREV to search for the previous selection. A minimum three second blank space is required for proper operation. If you hold this button, or press it more than once, the tape will advance further. The tape direction arrow blinks during SEEK operation. Audio is muted during SEEK.

PROGRAM (PROGRAM)
Press PROG to play the other side. This causes the tape direction to reverse.

NEXT (NEXT)
Press SEEK up or NEXT to search for the next selection. If you hold this button, or press it more than once, the cassette will advance further. Note the enunciator NEXT in the graphic display. Also note that audio is muted in this mode.

REVERSE (REV)

NOISE REDUCTION
Noise reduction is active at all times with a tape inserted in the remote cassette.

FORWARD (FWD)
To rapidly advance the tape, press FWD and the tape will rapidly advance to the end of the side or until you press the FWD button again. The radio plays the last-selected station during FWD operation.
