Audio System
Operating the Cassette Player
Turn the audio system ON. Make
sure the tape opening on the cassette
is facing to the right, then insert the
cassette most of the way into the slot.
The system will pull it in the rest of
the way, and begin to play.
The tape direction indicator will light
to show you which side of the
cassette is playing. The
the side you inserted facing upward
is now playing. If you want to play
the other side, press the PROG
button.
Dolby B noise reduction turns on
when you insert a cassette. If the
tape was not recorded with Dolby B
noise reduction, turn it off by
pressing the button.
Comfort and Convenience Features
When the system reaches the end of
the tape, it will automatically reverse
direction and play the other side. If
you want to remove the cassette
from the drive, press the EJECT
buttons.
The system will automatically eject
the cassette whenever you turn off
the system or the ignition switch.

Tape Search Functions
With a cassette playing, you can use
the FF, REW, TMS, or REPEAT
function to find a desired program.
FF/REW — Fast Forward and
Rewind move the tape rapidly. To
rewind the tape, push the FF/REW/
TMS switch down, then release it.
You will see REW in the display. To
fast forward the tape, push the
switch up, then release it. You will
see FF displayed. Press the PLAY
button to take the system out of
rewind or fast forward. If the system
reaches the end of the tape while in
fast forward or rewind, it auto-
matically stops that function,
reverses direction, and begins to play.
TMS — The Tape Music Search
Function allows you to find the
beginning of a song or passage. You
activate TMS with the FF/REW/
TMS switch. To find the beginning
of the song or passage currently
playing, push the switch down and
hold it until you hear a beep. You will
see REW flashing in the display as
the tape rewinds. To find the
beginning of the next song, push the
switch up and hold it until you hear a
beep. You will see FF flashing in the
display as the tape fast forwards.
When the system finds the begin-
ning of a song or passage, it goes
back to PLAY mode.
