USING THE CASSETTE RECORDER
The cassette recorder has a full-release
auto-stop system to protect tapes and
prevent pinch roller damage. When a
tape reaches the end of a side, the tape
mechanism automatically stops and re-
leases the tape.

tape by turning the hub with a pen-
cil. This helps prevent the tape from
tangling in the record/playback
mechanism. Avoid touching the tape
with your fingers.

sette compartment door.
3. Insert the tape into the guides on the
door with the exposed tape edge
facing out, the side you want to play
facing up, and the full reel to the left.
