[. . . ] 10 Power Sources -- The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the unit. CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. ÷ Explanation of Graphical Symbols The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert you to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert you to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. 11 Power-Cord Protection -- Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying attention to receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit. 12 Cleaning -- The unit should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer. WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. 13 No Use Periods -- The power cord of the unit should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time. 14 Object and Liquid Entry -- Care should be taken so that objects do not fall into and liquids not spilled into the inside of the unit. 1 Read Instructions -- All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the unit is operated. 2 Retain Instructions -- The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference. 15 Damage Requiring Service -- The unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel when: A. [. . . ] ÷ When the tape running direction is set to TM, only the reverse side is recorded. ÷ If you select or automatically switches to RELAY , the reverse mode in step 5. Setting the recording level (in step 6) Play the loudest passage of the source to be recorded and watch the meter readings. Adjust the REC LEVEL control so that the highest peak reaches +4 of the optimum recording level. Display during recording The A or B indicator shown in the display represents the last deck operated. Tape counter Use the tape counter to aid in locating a point on a tape (0000 to 9999). To set the counter reading to "0000", press the RESET button.

To resume recording, press the PLAY button. 11 DUTCH ESPAÑOL Peak level meters Indicate the peaks of the signal levels during recording and playback over a ­30 dB to +6 dB range. There are separate meters for each left and right channel. These level meters have a peak hold function which holds the peak level for about 1. 5 seconds.

If a blank interval longer than 4 seconds is desired, keep pressing for as long as you want. When the MUTE/ SEARCH button is released, the deck enters Rec/Pause mode after making a 4-second blank interval. To resume recording, press the PLAY button. Thus, you can safely protect a recording for as long as you wish without fear of accidental erasure. Should you wish to use a cassette tape protected in this way for recording, simply covering the hole with adhesive tape will permit erasure and re-recording. ÷ When using Chrome (Type II/HIGH <CrO2>) or Metal (Type IV/METAL) tapes, make sure you do not cover the hole intended for the Auto Tape Selector operation. AUTO TAPE SELECTOR DETECTION SLOTS The deck has a built-in Auto Tape Selector which automatically adjusts for the proper bias, level and equalization according to the tape formulation -- all you have to do is to load a cassette and the Auto Tape Selector does the rest. The Auto Tape Selector determines which type of tape is loaded by sensing detector slots in the top of the tape shell. Each tape formulation has its own characteristic hole markings standardized by the tape industry. ÷ Early model Metal (Type IV/Metal) tape formulation cassette shells do not have the slots for Auto Tape Selector operation. As a result, early model Metal type tapes recorded on another deck will be played back with the deck at the Chrome (Type II/HIGH <CrO2>) settings. YAMAHA does not recommend using this kind of tape. ÷ The deck does not have the required setting for Ferrichrome (Type III/FeCr) tape, since this tape formulation is not widely used. Should you use a Ferrichrome tape, it will be recorded and played back at the Normal (Type I/NORM) settings, which will result in an unnatural high frequency emphasis. This effect may be compensated for somewhat by adjusting the tone controls of your amplifier/receiver during playback. TAKING UP SLACK IN THE TAPE As a precaution against tape entanglement and damage, remove any slack in the tape before inserting cassettes into the deck.
