mode, press the TAPE AMS

control.

Automatic Music Search

The Automatic Music Search feature

allows you to quickly locate the

beginning of the tape selection

being played or to skip to the next

selection.

To activate the feature, momentarily

depress the TAPE AMS button.

Then, press either REW (for the

beginning of the current selection) or FF (to advance to the next

selection). The tape deck stops and returns to play mode when the AMS

circuit senses a blank section on the tape.

In order to ensure proper operation of the AMS feature, the tape MUST

have a blank section of at least 4 seconds duration between programs.

Rewind

The rewind control works in tape

mode.

To rewind in tape mode, press the

REW control. Radio play will

continue until rewind is stopped (with the FF control or the AM/FM

control) or the beginning of the tape is reached.

Fast forward

The fast forward control works in

tape mode.

• In the tape mode, tape direction

will automatically reverse when

the end of the tape is reached.
