Cautions:

1.Keep magnets and metallic objects away from the head.

If the head becomes magnetized, noise will increase and the sound will deteriorate. Demagnetize the head every 20-30 hours of use with a head eraser (available from an audio store). (When demagnetizing

the head, the button should be set to STANDBY.)

2.Do not use anything other than alcohol for cleaning. Thinner and benzine will damage the rubber pinch roller.

Cleaning the lens

If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, dropout, etc., could degrade sound.

Open the CD door and clean the lens as shown.

ÖUse a blower (available from a camera store) to blow dust off the lens.

ÖIf there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe clean with a cotton swab.
