Each of these tape formulations requires different electronic settings within the cassette deck. METAL (19) should be used when recording metal formulation (Type IV) tapes. This type of tape, which affords the widest frequency response and lowest noise levels, will not record properly on any other setting. Cr02(20) is for Type II tapes. These are often referred to as High Bias, 70,,s or chrome tapes (Cr02 is the chemical formula for chromium dioxide, one of the components originally used in Type II cassette tapes). LN (21) should be pressed if you are using a Type I tape. These are also referred to as Normal Position, Low Noise, ferric oxide or simply 120,,s tapes. If you are unsure as to which setting to use for a particular brand of cassette, consult the information packed with the tape or your Harman Kardon dealer. If you wish to return to a particular point on the tape, mark it by setting the tape counter to 000 at that point. To return to the same point, depress the MEMORY (23) button and then press
