Adjusting Bias and Recording
Level Calibration
Automatically
Since there are many different types of cassettes on the
market, your tape deck automatically sets the
appropriate equalization characteristics and bias
current for each tape type (ATS: Automatic Tape
Selection). However, you can get better recording
results by doing the automatic bias current and the
recording level calibration.

Press PAUSE
P to start the automatic calibration
procedure.
The automatic calibration procedure starts (i.e.,
recording test tones, rewinding, and playing
back).
During the calibration, the counter changes from
9 to 0.

1
Insert the cassette you want to record on into
either deck.
Make sure the record-protect tabs on the cassette
have not been removed.
2
Press DECK A or DECK B until “CAL” appears in
the display.
3
Press
· or ª to select the side of the tape to be
recorded.
When the automatic calibration procedure ends,
the tape rewinds to the original position, the
counter returns to normal and the tape deck stops.
5
Start the actual recording (see page 6).
To cancel the automatic calibration function
Press
p on the deck you’re using.
If “A” or “B” flashes continuously
The automatic calibration procedure has been interrupted
by:
— The end of the tape. Reverse the tape direction or rewind
the tape to a new position that allows recording of the
test tone.
— Damaged tape or dirty heads. Change the cassette or
clean and demagnetize the heads (see page 19).
Updating the calibration setting
If you insert a cassette and “[A] CAL” or “CAL [B]”
appears in the display, it means that automatic
calibration data in that deck for that tape type (I, II or
IV) exists. However, we recommend that you repeat
the automatic calibration procedure each time you
insert a new cassette since cassettes of the same type
also vary in their characteristics.
Before recalibrating, be sure to turn off “[A] CAL” or
“CAL [B]” by pressing DECK A or DECK B. Then start
from Step 2 of the automatic calibration procedure.
