Notes on handling tape
e
Before loading a cassette, check the tape for slack. If there is slack tape, remove it using a
pencil.
¢
Do not expose the cassette tape to direct sunlight. Leaving a cassette at high temperature
or humidity can deform the cassette shell or tape.
e
120-minute tape is very thin. Avoid its use, because it can easily be twisted around the
pinch roller.
Head cleaning
Magnetic
particles from the tape adhere to the head surface after a long period of use,
resulting in noise and poor quality sound. Clean the head with cleaning tape available at your
stereo shop. And follow the directions with the head cleaner.
CAUTION:
The KRC-868D
includes a lithium backup battery to retain memory in the microproces-
sor. If the unit can not no longer retain its memory, this lithium battery may have been
discharged. In this case, bring the unit in to our authorized service center. This backup
lithium battery life is estimated at about 7 years.
e¢ When your set malfunctions
