Special features

Unpacking

Unpack the unit carefully and make sure that all accessories are put aside so they will not be lost.

Examine the unit for any possibility of shipping damage. If your unit is damaged or fails to operate, notify your dealer immediately. If your

unit was shipped to you directly, notify the shipping company without delay. Only the consignee (the person or company receiving the

unit) can file a claim against the carrier for shipping damage.

We recommend that you retain the original carton and packing materials for use should you transport or ship the unit in the future.

2. Endless tapes

Do not use an endless tape, as this could damage the mechanism of

the unit.

To re-record

Safety tab (accidental erasure prevention tab)

After an important recording has been finished, break the safety tab,

to prevent the recorded contents from being erased or recorded on

accidentally.

When there is slack in the tape

In such a case, insert a pencil into the reel hole and wind the reel hub

to remove the slack.

To store cassette tapes

Do not store the tapes in a place which is subject to direct sunlight, or

near equipment that generates heat. Keep the cassette tapes away

from any magnetic field.

For A side

For B side

Notes on cassette tape

Apply tape only to the position where

the tab has been removed.

1. Longer tape than 110 minutes cassette tape

Since longer tape than 110 minutes cassette tape is very

thin, the tape could adhere to the pinch roller or be easily cut.

It is recommended that these tapes not be used with this

unit to prevent possible damage.
