Playing a Cassette Tape Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer than that are so thin they may not work well in this player. The longer side with the tape visible should face to the right. If the ignition is on and the radio is off, the tape can be inserted and will begin playing. A tape symbol is shown on the display whenever a tape is inserted. If you hear nothing but a garbled sound, the tape may not be in squarely. Press EJT to remove the tape and start over. If you want to insert a tape while the ignition is off, first press EJT or DISP. While the tape is playing, use VOL, TUNE, SEEK and PSCAN controls just as you do for the radio. The radio will display TAPE and an arrow showing which side of the tape is playing.
