CLEANING THE TAPE-HANDLING

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.
