Keep the CTR-116 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immedi- ately.

Use and store the CTR-116 only in normal temperature environments.

Handle the CTR-116 gently and carefully. Don’t drop it.

Keep the CTR-116 away from dust and dirt.

Wipe the CTR-116 with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

Modifying or tampering with the CTR-116’s internal components can cause a malfunction and invalidate its warranty. If your CTR-116 is not performing as it should, take it to your local Ra- dioShack store for assistance.

CLEANING THE TAPE-HANDLING PARTS

Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape’s coating can accumulate on the tape heads and other parts the tape touches. This can greatly reduce the performance of the cassette recorder. After every 20 hours of tape player operation, use a cassette deck cleaning kit (Cat. No. 44-1202) or follow these steps to clean the tape-handling parts.

1.Remove the batteries and disconnect any other power source.
