Cassette tape selection and care
Types of tapes which can be played correctly.
The system automatically identifies the type of tape.
NORMAL POSITION/TYPE I ✓
HIGH POSITION/TYPE II ✕
METAL POSITION/TYPE IV ✕
High position and metal position tapes can be played, but
the unit will not be able to do full justice to the characteristics
of these tapes.
• Tapes exceeding 100 minutes are thin and can break or
get caught in the mechanism.
• Tape slack can get caught up in the mechanism and
should be wound up before the tape is played.
• Endless tapes can get caught up in the deck’s moving
parts if used incorrectly.

As a result, it may not function properly in the following
cases:
• With short silent parts
• When noise occurs between tunes
• With silent parts found within tunes
