Head Cleaning
The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan require periodic cleaning. This removes particles of the metal oxide coating that wear off the tape and accumulate on these parts and impair performance.
Disconnect the AC power cord, press the STOP/EJECT key to open the cassette door, and press the
PLAYkey. Clean the tape heads, pinch roller and capstan with a soft cloth or cotton pad dampened in isopropyl alcohol or special tape head cleaner.
