System 727  (130-1274)    Cassette Deck Operation      Faxback Doc. # 14330

The System 727 has two cassette decks.  You can use TAPE 1 (REC/PLAY) for
normal playback, consecutive play, and dubbing (recording).  You can use
TAPE 2 (PLAY) for normal playback and consecutive play.

TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 have a full-release auto-stop system to protect tapes and
prevent pinch roller damage.  When a tape reaches the end while playing,
recording, fast-forwarding, or rewinding, the tape mechanism automatically
stops.

Note:  To operate a tape, you must use the control buttons under the same
       deck where you loaded the tape.

LOADING AND PLAYING A CASSETTE TAPE

Warning:  To protect your hearing, set VOLUME MIN/MAX to its lowest setting
          before you begin playing a cassette tape.

Note:  Before playing or recording any cassette tape, take up any slack in
       the tape by turning one of the cassette's hubs with a pencil.  If
       you do not remove excess slack, the tape might become tangled in the
