3-33 Remote Cassette Tape Player (If Equipped)
If you have an AM-FM Stereo Audio Compact Disc
Automatic Tone Control System that includes a remote
cassette player, the cassette player is located in the front
of the center console.
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that
are up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes
longer than that are so thin they may not work well in
this player.
To load a cassette tape with the ignition off, first press
EJECT on the remote player. Then, insert the cassette tape.
The tape will play if the ignition is on but the radio is off.
Once the tape is playing, use the control knobs for VOL,
AUTO TONE, BAL, FADE, BASS and TREB just as
you do for the radio. A lighted tape symbol shows when a cassette tape is in
the player. A lighted arrow will also appear and show the
direction of play when a tape is active.
The player automatically senses if the cassette tape is
metal or CrO
2 and adjusts for best playback sound.
Anytime a cassette tape is inserted, the top side is
selected for play first.
PREV (1): Press PREV or the SEEK left arrow (in the
opposite direction that the lighted tape direction arrow
points) to search for the previous selection. A minimum
three
-second blank gap is needed for the player to
stop at the beginning of the selection. The tape direction
arrow will blink during the SEEK operation and the
sound is muted in this mode.
NEXT (3): Press NEXT or the SEEK right arrow
(in the direction that the lighted tape direction arrow
points) to search for the next selection. The tape
direction arrow will blink during SEEK operation and
the sound is muted in this mode.
REV (4): Press this button to rapidly reverse the tape.
The tape will rapidly reverse to the beginning of the
cassette reel or until you press REV again. The radio
plays the last selected station during REV.

CD changer is in use.
SCAN: Press and hold SEEK until the radio goes into
SCAN mode. SCAN allows you to listen to stations for

or CD and console
-mounted CD changer if both are

-FM to return to the radio when a
cassette tape or CD is playing. The inactive tape or CD
will remain safely inside the radio for future listening.
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to and
control any of the music sources, including AM
-FM,
cassette tapes and CDs, through the Rear Seat Audio
(RSA) controller. However, the rear seat passengers
can only control the music sources that the front seat
passengers are not listening to. For example, rear seat
passengers may listen to a cassette tape through
headphones while the driver listens to the radio through
the front speakers. The rear seat passengers have control
of the volume for each set of headphones. Be aware that
the front seat audio controls always have priority over
the RSA controls. The front seat passengers switch the
source for the main radio to a remote source, the RSA
will play the same remote source. The rear speakers
will be muted when the RSA power is turned on.
You may operate the RSA functions even when the
main radio is off.
This feature is intended for rear seat passengers.
