Use only well-known brands of tape. Avoid use of C-120 cassettes.
Furthermore, do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, dust or oil, and do not
touch the tape surfaces.
HEAD CLEANING
The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan require periodic cleaning. This removes
particles of the metal oxide coating that wear off the tape and accumulate on these parts
and impair performance. Switch off the power, press the STOP/EJECT key to open the
cassette door, and press the PLAY key. Clean the tape heads, pinch roller and capstan
with a soft cloth or cotton pad dampened in isopropyl alcohol or special tape head
cleaner.
COMPACT DISC CARE
•
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case
and lift the disc outs, holding it carefully by the edges.
•
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s recorded surface
with a soft cloth.Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to
collect dust and microscopic debris, so gently wiping with a soft cloth should
remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of
the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on
reproduction quality.
