CLEANING THE TAPE- HANDLING PARTS

Inspect and clean the tape head about every 3 months. Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape's coating can accumulate on the tape heads and other parts that the tape touches. This can greatly re- duce the performance of the cassette player.

Rotate VOLUME to STOP and remove the cassette. Then gently clean the tape-handling parts with a swab dipped in tape head-cleaning solution, available at your local RadioShack store.

Illust.

Caution: To avoid damage to the tape head, never use a chemical not ap- proved for tape head cleaning and never touch the tape head with your fingers or any metal object.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

In the unlikely event that your answer- ing system causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can disconnect your service. The phone company attempts to notify you in ad-

vance. If advance notice is not practi- cal, the phone company notifies you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, oper- ations, or procedures that could affect the operation of your answering sys- tem. The phone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to pre- vent interruption of your phone ser- vice.

LIGHTNING

Your answering system has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in phone and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed FCC require- ments. However, lightning striking the phone line or power lines can damage your answering system.

Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has frequent electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your answer- ing system during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
