Do not force the cassette tape into the
tape door. This could cause player
damage.The cassette tape automatically changes di-
rections to play the other side when the first
side is complete. At this time, the moving
digital squares illuminate on the left side of the
display window.
Precaution on cassette player operation:
ITo maintain good quality sound, NISSAN
recommends using cassette tapes of 60
minutes or shorter in length.
ICassette tapes should be removed from the
player when not in use. Store cassettes in
their protective cases and away from direct
sunlight, heat, moisture and magnetic
sources.
IDirect sunlight can cause the cassette to
become deformed. The use of deformed
cassettes may cause the cassette to jam in
the player.
IDo not use cassettes with labels which are
peeling and loose. If used, the label could
jam in the player.IIf a cassette has loose tape, insert a pencil
through one of the cassette hubs and re-
wind the tape firmly around the hubs. Loose
tape may cause tape jamming and waver-
ing sound quality.
IOver a period of time, the playback head,
capstan and pinch roller may collect a tape
coating residue as the tape is played. This
residue accumulation can cause weak or
wavering sound, and should be removed
periodically with a head cleaning tape. If the
residue is not removed periodically, the
player may need to be disassembled for
cleaning.

between selections. If there is a blank interval
within one selection or there is no interval
between selections, the system may not stop
in the desired or expected location.
