AIR CONDITIONING AND AUDIO Cassette tape player operation (a) Playing a cassette tape If a cassette is already in the slot, push the "TAPE" button. When you insert a cassette tape, the exposed tape should be to the right. The player will automatically start when you insert a cassette tape. At this time, "TAPE" appears on the display. If a metal or chrome equivalent cassette tape is put in the cassette player, the player will automatically adapt to it and "METAL" appears on the display. To stop or eject the cassette tape, push the "EJECT" button. Auto-reverse feature: After the cassette player reaches the end of a tape, it automatically reverses and begins to play the other side, regardless of whether the cassette was playing or fast forwarding. Dolby Noise Reduction* feature: If you are listening to a tape that was recorded with Dolby* B or C Noise Reduction, push the button by the double-D symbol until the appropriate symbol appears on the display. The Dolby B NR mode reduces tape noise by about 10 dB. The Dolby C NR mode reduces tape noise by another 10dB or about 20 dB total. For best sound reproduction, select the same NR mode that was used to record the tape. To play a tape recorded without Dolby NR, push the button until the symbol disappears from the display. * Dolby noise reduction manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.
