Refer to its instructions.
Alarm function
If an “ALARM” (Emergency) signal is received from a
station while listening to the radio, the unit automatically
switches to the station broadcasting the “ALARM” signal,
except when you are listening to non-RDS stations—all
AM (MW) and some FM stations.
Test function
The “TEST” signal is used for testing the “ALARM”
signal.
Therefore, it makes the unit work in the same way as the
“ALARM” signal does.
If a “TEST” signal is received from a station while
listening to the radio, the unit automatically switches to the
station broadcasting the “TEST” signal, except when you
are listening to non-RDS stations—all AM (MW) and some

IMPORTANT:
•It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the
consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video
recording, broadcast or cable program and in any
literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied
therein.
•The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is
not affected by the other sound settings. Thus, during
recording you can adjust the sound you are actually
listening to without affecting the recording level.
•If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static,
the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the distance
between the TV and the unit.
•You can only use type I tape for recording.
•DO NOT turn off the unit while playing back or
recording a tape. The cassette deck or tapes
may be damaged.
•DO NOT use type II and type IV tapes since the
unit is not compatible with such tapes.
•The use of C-120 or longer tape is not
recommended, since characteristic deterioration
may occur and this tape easily jams in the pinch
rollers and the capstans.
At the start and end of cassette tapes
There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when
recording from discs, FM/AM (MW) broadcasts, or external
equipment, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the recording
will be made without losing any music.
To protect your recordings
Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect against
unexpected erasure or re-recording.
To protect your recording, remove these tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with
adhesive tape.
