Lenoxx Electronics CD-149 Cleaning the Tape Heads, HOW to GET the Best OUT of Your SET

Page 17

CLEANING THE TAPE HEADS

We suggest using a special cleaning tape cassette (not included) (available in most music and Hi-Fi stores). But if you do not have one, you may follow the instructions below.

COTTON SWAB

CAPSTAN

ERASE HEAD

RECORD/PLAYBACK HEAD

PINCH ROLLER

When the heads, capstan and pinch roller become dirty, this may result in muffled, distorted or reduced sound during playback and may even result in tape jams.

Remove the cassette tape and clean with a cotton swab moistened with commercially sold head/pinch roller cleaner or alcohol. Wait approximately 10 seconds for the alcohol or cleaning fluid to dry before using.

HOW TO GET THE BEST OUT OF YOUR SET

AM RECEPTION - You may find that you can improve the reception of your favorite station by rotating the set a small amount.

FM RECEPTION - You may find that you can improve the reception of your favorite station by collapsing the telescoping antenna a small amount, rotating or extending it to the full length.

RECORD BUTTON - If you find that you cannot press this button down, check the Record Interlock defeat tabs on the cassette (see page 15), or the tape may be at the end, rewind the tape or reverse it.

TAPE HEADS - The tape heads should be cleaned periodically with a special cleaning tape (available in music and Hi-Fi stores) to remove the particles of brown oxide coating from the tapes that collected on these heads. These particles fill the gap in the heads and degrade performance.
