Tape Notes

1.Take care of your tape cassette to preserve the quality of the recordings. Do not allow them to be exposed to direct sunlight. Store them in a place protected from dirt and dust and avoid handing with greasy or oily hands. Also, keep the away from magnets, and motors of the permanent magnet type.

2.It is not advisable to use cassette tapes longer than C-60 (30 minutes per side) in automobile players, since the tape is too thin and tends to become easily entangled. Always remove cartridge from your tape player as soon as play is finished.

3.The capstan and tape head should be cleaned about once every six months with a soft cloth or cotton-wool swab, moistened with alcohol. This will serve to maintain the richness and clarity of sound, and prevent loss of volume. Do not use a screwdriver, or ferrous metal rod, in carrying out the above cleaning. See illustration.

4.A loosely wound cassette tape will get damaged. Prior to using such tape, tighten it in a manner as guided by Fig. A carelessly would cassette tape will cause unnecessary pressure on the tape resulting in the cassette springing out while the tape is running. For prevention rewind the tape through fast forwarding or rewinding.
