Getting Started
Playing tapes
The tape deck lets you play or record
both sides of the tape without physically
taking it out and turning it over (auto-
reverse). If you're planning on
recording right away, note that the tape
deck can only record on Type I
(normal) tapes. See Making tape
recordings on page 26 for more on
this.
1 Load a cassette tape
On the top panel, press down the corner
of the cassette deck marked
(0) to open the cover and
OPEN
insert a tape. Press down again to close.
2 Press TAPE (23) to start
playback.
The side of the tape you'll hear is
whichever is facing toward you when
you load it. This is the 'forward' (3)
direction, while the other side is
'reverse' (2). The forward indicator is
shown in the display.
If there's already a tape in the deck,
then pressing the
TAPE
when the system is in standby mode—
will switch the system on and start the
tape playing.
3 To play the other side of the
tape, press TAPE (23).
Each time you press
TAPE
during playback, the other side of the
tape starts playing. Pressing
(23 ) when the tape is stopped starts
playback on the side it was playing
previously.
The current tape direction is indicated
in the display.
4 To skip back or forward a
track on the tape, press —
. 4 or ¢ . +.
¢ . + searches for the next blank
space between tracks on the side
currently playing (in other words, to
the start of the next track), then
resumes playback.
— . 4 searches for the previous
blank space between tracks on the side
currently playing (in other words, to
the start of the current track), then
resumes playback.
PUSH
By pressing — . 4 or ¢ . +
more than once, the tape deck will skip
several tracks at once (up to a
maximum of 15). For example, press
¢ . + twice to skip forward two
tracks.
Track search is unlikely to work reliably
in the following cases:
• if the space between tracks is less
than about 4 seconds
button—even
• if the recording is particularly noisy
so the spaces are not recognized
• if the recording contains frequent
silences, such as a language study tape.
• if the recording contains sections of
very quiet material, such as some
