Maintenance

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

Handling discs

When removing the disc from its case, hold 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.

Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

To clean the disc:

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

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 strongly.

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.

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 turned off).
