Care and Maintenance

Your Optimus SCT-56 High-Speed Dubbing Stereo Cassette Deck is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. These suggestions will help you care for the cassette deck so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the cassette deck dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq- uids can contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.

Handle the cassette deck gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the circuit boards and case and can cause the cassette deck to work improperly.

Use and store the cassette deck only in normal temperature environ- ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or melt plastic parts.

Keep the cassette deck away from dust and dirt, which can cause pre- mature wear of parts.

Wipe the cassette deck with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter- gents to clean the cassette deck.

Modifying or tampering with the cassette deck’s internal parts can cause a malfunction and might invalidate your cassette deck’s warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your cassette deck is not operating as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.

Cleaning the Tape-Handling Parts

Clean the tape-handling parts after about every 20 hours of use. Use a cotton swab dipped in tape head cleaning solution or denatured alcohol to gently clean the parts shown in the illustration.

Note: Radio Shack stores sell a wide variety of tape deck cleaning supplies.
