Playing a Cassette Tape
The tape player is built to work best with tapes that
are up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes
longer than that are so thin they may not work well
in this player. The longer side with the tape visible
should face to the right. If you hear nothing or hear a
garbled sound, the tape may not be in squarely.
Press the EJT button to remove the tape and start over.
If the ignition and radio are off, press the EJT button
or the DISPL knob to insert and to begin play of a tape.
If the ignition is on and the radio is off, the tape can
be inserted and will begin playing.While the tape is playing, use VOL, TUNE, SEEK, and
PSCAN controls just as you do for the radio. TAPE
and an arrow will appear on the display to show which
side of the tape is playing.
Cassette tape adapter kits for portable CD players will
work in the cassette tape player. See “CD Adapter Kits”
later for more information.
The tape bias is set automatically when a metal or
chrome tape is inserted.
If an error appears on the display, see “Cassette Tape

three seconds of silence between each selection for

the previous selection or the beginning of the current
selection, depending upon the position on the tape.

CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs and the
smaller CDs are loaded in the same manner.

of the music that has been recorded, and the way the
CD-R has been handled. There may be an increase
