Bad Tape Detect: If receiver detects a bad cassette, "BAD TAPE" will appear on the display, and tape will be ejected. Tape may be damaged or too tight. If it is damaged, try a new tape. If tape is too tight, player cannot turn tape hubs. Remove tape and hold it with open end down. Try to turn right hub counterclockwise with a pencil. Turn tape over and repeat. If hubs do not turn easily, your tape may be damaged and should not be used in player.

Operating Tips About Your Audio System:
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable until it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to high volumes of sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by adjusting the volume control on your receiver to a safe sound level before your hearing adapts to it.
To help avoid hearing loss:
-
Adjust volume control to lowest setting.
-
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly.
Understanding Radio Reception:
FM STEREO: FM stereo will give you best sound, but FM signals will reach only about 16-65 km (10-40 miles). Tall buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing sound to come and go.
AM: Range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at night. Longer range, however, can cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try reducing treble to reduce this noise if you experience it.
Care of Your Cassette Player Always avoid:
-
Touching cassette head with magnetic or hard objects.
-
Lubricating player mechanism.
