Caution: The tape stops and the recorder turns off
when the tape reaches the end. However, we recom-
mend that you press 

 as soon as possible af-

ter you finish playing or recording a tape. This
protects the tape by releasing it from the tape-han-
dling parts.

Note:  We recommend MC-60 cassette tapes (Cat.
No. 44-640) for up to two hours of recording/playback
time, or MC-90 cassette tapes (Cat. No. 44-644) for
up to three hours of recording/playback time.

Follow these steps to load a cassette tape.

1. Use a pencil to turn the cassette’s hub and

remove any tape slack. Avoid touching the tape.

2. Press 

to open the cassette compart-

ment.
