Using the Recorder
Review (REV)/ Cue
This feature is helpful in finding the beginning or the end
of the recorded segment on the tape. While in PLAY
mode, Slide and hold REV or CUE switch and listen for
change from noise to silence (end of recording) or from
silence to noise (beginning of recording).
When desired portion has been reached, release REV or
CUE switch.
Use the same procedure if you want to skip a portion or
listen to the same segment again.
Playback Switch
During the PLAY mode, you can speed up the playback
of recording tapes by placing the PLAYBACK switch in:
• FAST—Speed up Playback, 15%-25% faster than
normal playback.
• NORMAL—Playback at normal speed.

Digital Tape Counter
The digital tape counter is used to quickly determine the
location of different recording selections.
1. Rewind to the beginning of the tape.
2. Push the reset counter button to read "000". After
each selection is played or recorded, make a note of
the numbers in the read-out window. This will serve
as a reference for the start of next selection or
recording.
3. To locate a selection previously noted, Slide and hold
FFWD or REV switch until the counter indicates the
selection number you desire. The digital counter will
not indicate actual distance in units of measure; it
determines only the relative location of each
selection.

Using the Recorder
Tape Erase
To erase a tape simply record over the unwanted
recording.
Erase Protection
When you record new material, the cassette deck records
over whatever is on a tape. To protect a tape from
accidental erasure, break off one or both plastic tabs (one
for each tape side) on the side of the cassette tape. If you
decide later to record on the tape, seal the hole with a
piece of cellophane tape.
Care & Maintenance
Cleaning the Tape Heads
Over time, iron oxide particles from the magnetic tape
build up on the parts that come in contact with the tape.
These deposits can cause incomplete erasure, a muffled
sound during playback.
To clean the heads, open the compartment door, push
the PLAY button and gently clean the heads, capstan and
pinch wheel with a head cleaner.
Allow 30 minutes drying time when using a liquid
cleaner.
