Maintenance

To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs, tapes, and mechanism clean.

Handling discs

•Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing the center hole lightly.

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

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

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

•Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and moisture.

To clean the disc:

Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

Handling cassette tapes

•If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotate it.

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

•Be careful not to touch the tape surface.

•Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty places, in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV or speaker, or near a magnet.

To keep the best recording and playback sound quality:

•Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers.

•Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and audio shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the System is turned off).

Cleaning the System

•Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

•Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the following:

–DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.

–DO NOT wipe it forcefully.

–DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.

–DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides to it.

–DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact for a long time.
