POWER SOURCE

•Insert two UM-3 (Panasonic R6/LR6 or equivalent, not included) batteries into the Battery Compart ment, making sure of proper polarities.

•When the batteries are weak, the tape sound will become distorted, and the volume will decrease.

•For AC power operation, use only Panasonic AC adaptor (optional).

RADIO

1. Connect the included stereo earphones to the

0 Jack,

2. Set the SELECTOR Switch to “RADIO”.

3. Set the BAND Selector to the desired radio band.

•To receive FM stereo broadcast, set the BAND Selector to “FM ST”.

4. Tune in your favorite station using the TUNING Control. The FM ST Indicator will light during FM stereo broadcast.

5. Adjust the volume using the VOLUME Control.

6. The radio can be turned off by setting the

SELECTOR Switch to “TAPE jog”.

■ Auto Reverse

During playback when the tape comes to the end of its travel, the tape direction changes automatically to start playing the opposite side of the tape.

•Tape direction can be reversed manually during playback by the DIR Selector.

■ Fast Forward and Rewind

The tape will rapidly advance in the forward or reverse direction when one of the FAST Buttons is pressed.

•When the tape reaches the end by pressing one of the FAST Buttons, the tape movement stops, but the unit is not turned off. Do not leave the set in this condition. Be sure to press the STOP Button.

•Do not press the PLAY Button during fast forward or rewind, as this may jam the tape. Always press the STOP Button first, between functions.

MAINTENANCE H)

Get into habit of cleaning the head assembly (after every 10 hours or so) with a cotton swab dampened with a little alcohol.

Note;

•If FM stereo reception is poor (excessive noise. FM ST Indicator flickers), set the BAND Selector to “FM”. This will reduce the noise and provide more clear reception; however, the broadcast will not be heard in stereo,

■ BASS/TREBLE Controls

BASS: the dynamic low frequency range.

TREBLE: the dynamic high frequency range.

Positioning the control to the side of the detent

will amplify the corresponding controls; the side

will attenuate it.

■ XBS LEVEL Control

XBS boosts the low frequency range. You can enjoy the dynamic low sound.

NOTES

•Batteries installed with incorrect polarities may leak and damage this unit.

•Do not mix batteries (old and new) or types (carbon and alkaline).

•If the set is not used for a long period of time, or is used only from an AC power source, remove all the batteries to prevent potential damage due to possi ble battery leakage.

•Avoid using or placing this unit near sources of

heat. Do not leave it in an automobile exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time with the doors and windows closed, as this may deform the cabinet.

•Avoid spray-type insecticides. Some insecticides contain chemicals that could cause cabinet de formation.
