Precautions
1.Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel. In case of warranty claim, please report this number.
2.Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal without permission of the copyright holder.
3.Deck Location
•Do not use or leave in direct sunlight or in other places subject to high temperature and humidity. The unit should also not be left in potentially hot places such as near heating appliances. Excessive heat and moisture can lead to internal damage and serious malfunctions (this also applies to
cassette tapes). The recommended ambient temperature range is 5° C to 35° C.
•Avoid damp and dusty places and locations prone to vibrations.
•Be extremely careful with the recording/ playback heads. Clean and demagnetize them regularly, but under no circumstances should magnets or other metals be used anywhere near the heads.
•This unit is extremely sensitive to magnetic fields, so do not use near large speakers or other devices which generate magnetic fields.
•Hum may even be induced by magnetic flux leakage from the power transformer in certain amplifiers. Therefore, this unit should also be kept clear of the amplifier.
•Do not remove the cabinet case. If any of the internal parts are handled, there is a considerable danger of electric shock.
4.Cassettes to Avoid:
•Cassettes with poorly formed cases that rattle during rewind and fast forward.
•Low cost cassettes with no guide roller or pressure pad spring should never be used for stereo.
•
•Endless tapes, if used for a long period of time, can overheat.
5.Care
| From time to time you should wipe the front |
| and rear panels and the cabinet with a soft |
| cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in |
| a weak solution of mild detergent and water, |
| wring it out dry, and wipe off the dirt. |
| Following this, dry immediately with a clean |
| cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, |
| alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths |
4 | since these could damage the finish or remove |
the panel lettering. |
