To PIay A Cassette Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer than that are so thin they may not work well in this player. Once the tape is playing, use the upper and lower knobs for volume, balance and fade just asyou do for the radio. A lighted arrow shows which direction the tape is being played. FORWARD - To rapidly advance the tape, press 4 or b in the direction that the amber arrow points and the tape will rapidly go forward until you press the STOP-EJECT button lightly. REVERSE - To rapidly reverse the tape, press 4 or b in the opposite direction that the amber arrow points and the tape will rapidly reverse until you press the STOP-EJECT button lightly. PROGRAM -To go from one side of the tape to the other, press the VOL-PROG-RCL knob. STOP-EJECT - To remove the tape or stopthe tape and switch to radio, press the STOP-EJECT button. If a tape is inserted with side "1" (or "A") up, then the right arrow means that that side is being played. Likewise, a left arrow would indicate that side "2" (or "B") had been selected. Theplayer will automatically switch to the other sideof the tape when the first side ends. If "Cln" (Clean) appearson the display when you insert your cassette tape, your cassette player needs to be cleaned. It will still play cassette tapes but it should be cleaned to prevent damage to your cassette tapes and the cassette tape player. See "Care of Your Cassette Tape Player" laterin this section. After you have cleaned the cassette tape player, press and hold STOP-EJECT for 5 seconds to reset the the "Cln" indicator. The radio will display to show the clean featurehas been reset. 3-1 1
