Cassette Tape Messages

is tight and the player can’t turn the tape hubs.
Remove the tape. Hold the tape with the open end down
and try
to turn the right hub counterclockwise with a
pencil. Turn the tape over and repeat. If the hubs do not
turn easily, your tape may be damaged and should
not be used in the player. Try a new tape to make sure
your player is working properly.
BROKEN TAPE: If this message is displayed, the tape
is broken. Try a new tape.
