About a Cassette and a CD

Cassette tape

For playback, use normal or low-noise tape for the best sound. (Metal or CrO2 tape is not recommended.) For recording, use only normal tape.

Do not use C-120 tapes, or poor-quality tapes, as they may cause malfunctions.

Before loading a tape into the cassette compartment, tighten the slack with a pen or pencil.

Cassettes have removable tabs which prevent accidental recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab will protect the corre- sponding side from being erased. Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record again.

Care of compact discs

Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface.

Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD col- lection and player.

Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do not mark this surface.

Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive mois- ture.

Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the center, along the radius.
