IMPORTANT TO SAFETY

WARNING:

TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD,

DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO

RAIN OR MOISTURE.

Please, record and retain the Model name and serial number of your set shown on the rating label.

Model No. DRR-F101

Serial No.

Thank you for purchasing this DENON cassette tape deck. Please read the operation instructions thoroughly in order to acquaint yourself with the cassette tape deck and achieve maximum satisfaction from it.

CAUTION

1.Handle the power supply cord carefully

Do not damage or deform the power supply cord. If it is damaged or deformed, it may cause electric shock or malfunction when used. When removing from wall outlet, be sure to remove by holding the plug attachment and not by pulling the cord.

2.Do not open the top cover

In order to prevent electric shock, do not open the top cover.

If problems occur, contact your DENON DEALER.

3.Do not place anything inside

Do not place metal objects or spill liquid inside this unit.

Electric shock or malfunction may result.

1MAIN FEATURES

1.Horizontal loading for stable travel

The horizontal loading mechanism used on the DRRF101 is the ideal type of tray for the rotating parts, the most important part of the cassette deck. Mounting the deck mechanism horizontally lessens vibration of the flywheel in the thrust direction and reduces modulation noise.

2.Various editing and playback functions

•Auto reverse mechanism for recording and playing for long periods of time.

•Auto tape selector for automatically identifying the tape type.

•Music search for choosing selections up to 16 selections away in either direction.

3.Convenient system functions

The DRR-F101 is equipped for system functions allowing easy CD synchronized recording, auto function and auto power on operations when used in combination with a DRA/DCD/DMD-F101 series. In addition, the main operations of the system components can be performed using the system remote control unit (RC-927) included with the receiver (DRA-F101).

2 BEFORE USING

Read the following before using the set.

•Before turning on the power

Check again that all connections are correct and that there are no problems with the connection cords. Be sure to unplug the power cord before connecting or disconnecting the connection cords.

•Moving the set

To prevent short-circuits or damage to the connection cords, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the connection cords between all other audio components when moving the set.

•Condensation (dew)

Water droplets may condense on internal operation parts if the set is brought into a heated room from the cold outdoors or when the room is heated rapidly. If this happens, the set may not operate properly.

•Should condensation occur:

The condensation will evaporate in one hour or less, at which time the system will function normally.

•Store this instructions in safe place

After reading, store this instructions along with the warranty in a safe place. Also fill in the items on the back paper for your convenience.

•Illustrations in this manual

Note that some of the illustrations used for explanations in this manual may differ from the actual set.

3 CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

The cassette tape deck uses a microcomputer for controlling internal electronic circuits.

In the event that the player is used while a near-by tuner or TV is turned on, although unlikely, interference could occur either in the sound from the tuner or the picture of the TV. To avoid this, please take the following precautions.

•Keep the cassette tape deck as far away from the tuner or TV set as possible.

•Keep the power cable and connecting cable of the cassette tape deck separate from the antenna wires of the tuner and TV.

•Interference is particular likely to occur when an indoor antenna or a 300 Ω /ohms feeder cable is used. Thus, use of an outdoor antenna and 75 Ω /ohms coaxial cable

is strongly recommended.

6 HANDLING CASSETTE TAPES AND CAUTIONS

Cautions on Handling Cassette Tapes

•C-120 and C-150 tapes

C-120 and C-150 cassette tapes use extremely thin tape that can easily get caught in the capstan or pinch roller. Do not use such cassette tapes.

•Slack in the tape

The tape may get caught on the capstan and be damaged if the tape is slack when the cassette is loaded. Use a pencil, etc., to take up any slack in the tape before loading the cassette.

Cautions on Storing Cassette Tapes

•Do not place cassette tapes in the following places:

1.Hot or humid places

2.Dusty places

3.Places exposed to direct sunlight

4.Places exposed to magnetic forces (near TVs, speakers, etc.)

•Store cassette tapes in cases with stoppers to prevent the tape from becoming slack.

Accidental Erasure Prevention Tabs

•Cassette tapes are equipped with accidental erasure prevention tabs. To protect recordings from being erased accidentally, use a screwdriver, etc., to press on the tabs and break them off.

•To record on a cassette tape whose tabs have been broken off, cover the holes with cellophane tape, etc.

Accidental erasure protection tab for side B

Accidental erasure protection tab for side A

Side A

Cleaning the Heads

A commercially available head cleaning cassette (wet type) is required to clean the heads (recording/playback and erasing) on this product.

•If the heads are dirty, sound cannot be recorded or played with good quality.

•To take full advantage of this product‘s performance and to achieve good sound quality, clean the heads periodically after approximately 10 hours of use.

•We recommend using a wet type commercially available head cleaning cassette that also cleans the pinch roller and capstan.

Degaussing the Heads

•The heads become magnetized after extended use or after being exposed to magnetized objects. This results in noise or a loss of high frequencies.

•Use a commercially available cassette type head degausser to demagnetize the heads.

NOTE:

•Set the amplifier‘s volume to the minimum when cleaning and degaussing the heads.

(2) Auto Tape Select Mechanism

The DRR-F101 is equipped with an auto tape selector	Detection holes
mechanism which uses the detection holes in the
cassette halves to detect the type of tape and
automatically set the most appropriate recording bias and
equalization for that type of tape.
NOTE:
