Care and Maintenance

General Notes

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

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

Keep the cassette holder, the CD trays, and the MD loading slot cover closed when not in use.

Compact Discs

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.

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.

Mini Discs

Do not open the shutter.

-The shutter is locked so that it will not open. Trying to force it open will break the disc. If the shutter opens accidentally, close it again quickly without touching the disc inside.

Do not place discs in the following places:

-High temperatures areas such in direct sunlight or inside a car.

-High humidity areas, e.g. in a bathroom.

-On a beach or sandy area.

Clean discs regularly.

-If dust or dirt gets on cartridge, wipe it off with a soft dry cloth.

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.

Capstans

Heads

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 malfunction. 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.

If the heads become magnetized, the unit will produce noise or lose high frequencies.

To demagnetize the heads, turn off the unit, and use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and record shops).
