Automatic stop

• To protect your cassette tapes and prevent unnecessary wear to the cassette mechanism, this unit is equipped with an automatic stop system.
• When the tape ends during playing, the Play Button (4) automatically releases, which stops the cassette from running.

Cassette tape operating tips

• Tapes with a playing time of 120 minutes (C-120) are not recommended. These contain thinner and longer tape, which has a
  greater chance of malfunctioning and/or jamming, and may damage the cassette mechanism.

• To ensure good reproduction, please clean the head after every 10-20 hours of use.

• Keep the Cassette Player away from excessive heat or cold.

• If there is slack in the tape, remove the slack prior to inserting the cassette. To remove the slack, insert a pencil into the hub and rotate clockwise (see below).

Leader tape

• There is a ‘leader tape’ at the beginning on each cassette tape. There is no recording on this area. Always allow the tape to run for about five seconds to reach the recording tape.
• Always keep the tape head clean. A dirty head can cause distorted sound or improper tape speed.
