REFERENCE

Care and maintenance

Occasional care and maintenance of the unit and the software are needed to optimize the performance of your unit.

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft and dry cloth. If the unit surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine or thinner.

To clean the tape heads

Dirty tape heads cause sound deterioration. After every 10 hours of use, clean the tape heads by using a commercially available dry-type or wet-type head cleaning cassette separately. Refer to the instructions of the cleaning cassette.

To demagnetize the tape heads

Use a demagnetizing cassette after every 20 to 30 hours of use. Refer to the instructions of the demagnetizing cassette.

Care of CDs

When a CD becomes dirty, wipe it from the centre out with a cleaning cloth. Please do not use solvents. After playing a CD, store it in its case. Do not expose a CD to direct sunlight or heat sources.

Care of tapes

Store tapes in their cases after use. Do not leave tapes near magnets, motors, television sets, or any source of magnetism. Do not expose tapes to direct sunlight, or leave them in a car parked in direct sunlight.
