CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Optimus CTR-114 Auto-Reverse Voice-Activat- ed Cassette Recorder is an example of superior de- sign and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for the cassette recorder so you can enjoy it for years.

•Keep the recorder dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.

•Use and store the recorder only in normal tem- perature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, dam- age batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

•Keep the recorder away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts.

•Handle the recorder gently and carefully. Drop- ping it can cause the recorder to work improp- erly.

•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. Batteries can leak chemi- cals that damage your recorder’s electronic parts.

•Wipe the recorder with a damp cloth occasion- ally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter- gents to clean the recorder.
