Handling Cassette Tapes
•Do not play a cassette whose tape has gone slack.
In such a case, wind it tight using a pencil or the like
in one of the spools. Playing slack cassette tapes
can result in the tape tangling around the capstan
and/or pinch rollers, causing trouble.
•Do not play a deformed cassette or one whose
label is starting to come off, as it can cause the unit
to malfunction.
•Do not leave tapes in hot places, such as on
dashboards and other spots exposed to direct
sunlight, or near heater outlets. They can deform
the cassette.
•Avoid using extremely long cassette tapes, such as
100-minute-long tapes. Such tapes are very thin,
and can tangle easily around the pinch rollers or
other parts inside the unit, causing unit failure.
•Remove a cassette tape from the unit when not
listening to it for a while. If you leave a tape in the
unit too long, it may stick to the tape head and
cause unit malfunction.
Cleaning the Tape Head
After you have listened to many cassettes over a
long period of time, magnetic powder from the
tapes and dust accumulates on the tape head,
causing noise and a deterioration in sound quality.
Clean the tape head using a cleaning tape or
cleaning kit designed for use in car audio systems.
Cleaning the CD Slot
As dust tends to accumulate in the CD slot, clean it
every once in a while. Your CDs can get scratched if
you put them in a dusty CD slot.
Lens Fogging
Right after you turn on the car heater in cold
weather, dew or condensation may form on the
lens in the CD player of the unit. Called lens
fogging, CDs may be impossible to play. In such a
situation, remove the disc and wait for the
condensation to evaporate. If the unit still does not
operate normally after a while, consult your
Kenwood dealer.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance
of procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
