To avoid damaging the tape, it is recommended to take the cassette tape out of the
deck after listening.
BASS BOOST
Press down the “BASS BOOST” button on the main unit if you want to enhance the bass
when listening to the system. Press the button again to turn off bass boost effect.
LINE OUT CONNECTION
You can connect this unit to your external Hi-Fi / AMPLIFIER system by connecting the
LINE OUT socket to the auxiliary input socket of your Hi-Fi / AMPLIFIER system with
RCA cables (not included).
Note: The Volume control of the main unit will not function when using the LINE OUT.
3.5MM STEREO HEADPHONE JACK
The stereo headphone jack is located on the left front panel. Plug a set of stereo
headphones (not included) into this jack for private listening without disturbing others.
The speakers are automatically disconnected when headphones are connected to the
jack.
IMPORTANT: When using headphones, always set the volume control to a low level
before you put the headphone on. Then put the headphone on and gradually increase
the volume to a comfortable listening level.
CARE AND MAINTAINENCE
1. Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust or extreme temperatures.
2. Do not tamper with the internal components of the unit.
3. Clean the unit with a dry cloth. Solvents or detergents should never be used.
4. Avoid leaving the unit in direct sunlight or in hot, humid or dusty places.
5. Keep the unit away from heating appliances and sources of electrical noise such as
fluorescent lamps or motors.
CASSETTE CARE
Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:
1) Tape Jamming – Leading to uneven speed in playback, and
2) Tape Tangling – Where the tape wraps itself around internal parts of the mechanism.
To reduce the likelihood of these problems occurring, the following
precautions should be observed:
Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the
cassette center window (see Fig. 1). Take up any loose layers,
using a pencil or hexagonal barrelled ballpoint pen, before
inserting the cassette into the machine (see Fig.2)
If the cassette feels tight while performing operation shown (see
Fig.2), the tape may be jamming due to ridges formed in the
winding of the tape (visible through the center window). These
may be removed, in most cases, by fast winding of the cassette
from one end to the other and back again.
Use only well-known brands of tape. Avoid use of C-120
cassettes.
