LOADING AND PLAYING
A CASSETTE TAPE
Notes:
We recommend C-30, C-60, and
C-90 tapes. Avoid using C-120
tapes because they are thin and
can easily get tangled in tape
mechanisms.
Before playing or recording any
cassette tape, take up any slack in
the tape by turning one of the cas-
sette’s hubs with a pencil. If you
do not remove excess slack, the
tape might become tangled in the
record/playback mechanism.
