CARE & MAINTENANCE

Always check that the tape is wound tightly inside the take-up spool on the cassette. If the tape is loose, wind it with a six-sided pencil.

A. Never use C-120 style cassettes (120 minute cassettes) in this

playcr.

B.Never insert a cassette into your player when the vehicle temperature is near or below freezing.

CLEANING OF TAPE HEAD & CAPSTAN

Since the tapes contain oxides, you will find black residue building up on the tape head and drive capstan (inside cassette door). These residues should be cleaned after 50 to 100 hours of accumulated tape operation. You can either clean them by hand, with a cotton swab slightly damp with alcohol (do not use any petroleum solvent) or a commercial tape head cleaning solution available at most stereo stores. Or you can use a special cleaning cassette (also available at stereo stores) that automatically cleans the head and capstan when inserted.

DEMAGNETIZING

The movement of the magnetic tape across the head and metal par1s of the tape player causes a magnetic field to develop. We recommend you have the tape player demagnetized at least twice annually. You can buy an inexpensive demagnetizing tool or have a stereo shop do it for you.
