Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.

cassette) in the unit until normal playback is possible
(about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on the trans-
mitter with a soft cloth before operating the unit.

tape.)

dirty?
●
If a power failure occurs during playback,
the heads remain engaged with the tape.
Do not open the compartment forcibly.
Wait until electricity resumes.
Possible cause
●
Is the AC power lead of the unit plugged
in?
●
Is the battery polarity respected?
●
Are the batteries dead?
●
Is the distance or angle incorrect?
●

strong light?
