Care and Maintenance

Compact Discs

Handle your compact discs, cassette tapes, and Cassette Deck carefully, and they will last a long time.

• Remove the CD from the case by holding it at the edges while pressing the center hole lightly.

• Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD, or bend the CD.

• Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping.

• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the CD when placing it back in the case.

•Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

• A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

CAUTION: Do not use any solvent

(for example, conventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.

Moisture Condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the Unit in the following cases:

• After starting the heating in the room.

• In a damp room.

• If the Unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.

Should this occur, the Unit may malfunc- tion. In this case, leave the Unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evapo- rates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.

General Notes

In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your tapes, CDs, and the mechanism clean.

•Store tapes and CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.

•Keep the Cassette Deck’s tape doors and the CD trays closed when not in use.

Cassette Tapes

•If the tape is loose in its cassette, take

up the slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotating.

• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the cassette.

•Do not touch the tape surface.

•Do not store the tape:

- In dusty places

-In direct sunlight or heat

- In moist areas

- On a TV or speaker

-Near a magnet

Cassette Deck

•If the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers of the Cassette Deck become dirty, the following will occur:

-Loss of sound quality

-Discontinuous sound

-Fading

-Incomplete erasure

-Difficulty recording

•Clean the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers using a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.
