are

on

the

Be-

fore

your

model

is

shipped

from

the

factory,

these

switches

are

set

to

the

power

requirements

of

the

destination.

Check

they

are

set

properly

before

plugging

the

power

cord

into

the

household

wall

socket.

If

the

voltage

is

not

properly

set

or

if

you

move

to

an

area

where

the

voltage

requirements

differ,

adjust

the

selector

switches

as

follows.

1.

Use

a

medium-size

screwdriver,

2.

First,

insert

a

screwdriver

into

the

groove

of

the

voltage

selector

at

the

top,

and

adjust

so

that

the

tip

of

the

groove

points

to

the

voltage

value

of

your

area.

3.

Next,

insert

a

screwdriver

into

the

groove

of

the

voltage

selector

at

the

bottom

and

adjust

until

the

voltage

is

the

same

as

at

the

top.

Both

switches

must

be

in

the

same

switch

setting.

resulting

in

an

inability

to

For

this

reason,

be

to

confirm

that

HOW

TO

HANDLE

CASSETTE

TAPES

Bear

in

mind

the

following

points

before

loading

cassette

tapes.

is

the

tape

loose,

or

is

some

of

the

tape

outside

the

cas-

sette?

If

some

of

the

tape

is

projecting

outside

the

cassette

shell

or

if

it

is

loose,

it

may

not

enter

between

the

capstan

and

pinch

roller.

This

will

prevent

the

tape

from

being

supplied

or

damage

the

tape

itself.

In

cases

like

these,

insert

a

pencil

into

the

ree!

hole

and

take

up

the

slack.

(Fig.

A}

Some

cassette

tapes

come

with

a

plastic

or

thick

paper

stopper

which

prevents

tape

slack.

Remove

this

stopper

when

loading

the

tape

and

replace

it

after

having

used

the

cassette.

What

are

the

accidental

erasure

prevention

tabs

for?

A

cassette

is

provided

with

these

tabs

so

that

important

or

otherwise

valuable

recordings

will

not

be

erased

accidental-

ly.

When

the tab

(Fig.

B)

on

the

cassette

shell

is

broken

out

with

the

tip

of

a

screwdriver,

it

will

not

be

possible

to

activ-

ate

the

recording

function

even

by

pressing

the

recording

(REC)

switch,

so

valuable

recordings

will

not

be

erased

in

error.

To

re-record

on

a

cassette

whose

tabs

have been

broken

out,

simply

stick

a

piece

of

doubled

adhesive

tape

over

the

tab

areas,

as

shown

in

Fig.

C.

NOTE:

The

accidental

erasure

prevention

tabs

are

located

at

the

top

left

on

both

sides

A

and

8

(1

or

2),

so

that

material

on

each

side

can

be

prevented

from

being

erased

in

error.

Tips

on

using

cassette

tapes

e@

Leader

tape

(which

does

not

allow

sound

to

be

recorded

over

it)

is

provided

at

the

beginning

of

a

cassette

tape.

“Start

recording

after

allowing

the

tape

to

run

for

about

5

seconds

so

that

the

leader

tape

clears

the

recording

head.

®

Do

not

leave

a

cassette

tape

exposed

to

the

environ-

ment.

Store

the

cassette

in

its

case

so

that

dust

and

dirt

do

not

adhere

to

the

tape

after

use,

and

so

that

the

tape

is

prevented

from

becoming

slack.

Choose

a

location

which

is

not

exposed

to

the

effects

of

magnetism,

dust,

dirt

and

oil

for

storing

the

tapes.

e

Because

C-120

tapes

are

so

thin,

they

easily

jam

in

the

pinch

roller

and

capstan,

and

they

are

susceptible

to

other

trouble

such

as

irregular

winding.

Try

not

to

use

them

with

this

unit.

GRAPHIC

EQUALIZER

CONTROLS

The

tone

for

the

left

(L)

and

right

(R)

audio

channels

can

be

adjusted

with

this

graphic

equalizer.

The

advantage

of

the

GRAPHIC

EQUALIZER

over

conventional

tone

controls

is

that

with

the

five

controls

of

the

GRAPHIC

EQUALIZER

it

is

possible

to

control

five

different

narrow.

With

conventional

tone

controls

a

setting

for

a

bass

or

treble

boost

or

cut

will

also

affect

the

lower

or

upper

mid

frequencies.

The

fre-

quency

bands

controlied

by

the

five

slide

controls

have

been

chosen

to

yield

the

maximum

possible

contro!

action

within

the

audio

spectrum.

100

Hz:

The

100

Hz

control

is

very

useful

for

enhanc-

ing

low

bass

notes

as

in

organ

music.

330

Hz:

The

330

Hz

control

will

allow

you

to

vary

the

upper

bass

frequencies.

4

kHz:

The

1

kHz

control

is

the

presence

control

and

can

be

used

very

effectively

to

emphasize,

or

deemphasize

vocalists.

PRELIMINARY

OPERATIONS

3.3

kHz:

The

3.3

kHz

control

will

add

brilliance

and

clarity

to

brass

instruments

and

violins.

10

kHz:

The

10

kHz

control

can

be

used

to

make

up

for

DEMAGNETIZING

THE

HEAD

The

should

therefore

be

demagnetized

gularly

with

a

(sold

separately).

For
