Notes on Cassettes

Cassette care

Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.

Keep cassettes away from equipment with built-in magnets such as speakers and amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the recorded tape could occur.

Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, extremely cold temperatures or moisture.

Slack in the tape may cause the tape to be caught in the machine. Before you insert the tape, use a pencil or similar object to turn the reel and take up any slack.

Removing the unit

Cassettes longer than 90 minutes

The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is not recommended except for long continuous play. The tapes used for these cassettes are very thin and tend to be stretched easily. Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes may cause them to be pulled into the cassette deck mechanism.

To prevent the unit from being stolen When you leave your car, remove the unit from the bracket and take it away with you.

Caution

Be careful when you remove the unit. The rear of the unit becomes very hot just after operating it because of a built-in power amplifier.
