To store cassette tapes
Do not store the tapes in a place which is subject to direct sunlight,
or near equipment that generates heat. Keep the cassette tapes away
from any magnetic field.
When there is slack in the tape
In such a case, insert a pencil into the ree! hole and wind the reel
hub to remove the slack.
Notes:
1. 120-minute cassette tape
Since a 120-minute cassette tape is very thin, the tape could ad-
here to the pinch roller or be easily cut. It is recommended that
these tapes not be used with this unit to prevent possible damage.
Cleaning the head section
2. Endless tapes
Do not use an endless tape, as this could damage the mechanism
of the unit.

ponents
For maintaining the best condition of the deck and
for longer service life, always keep the head (record-
ing/playback/erase), capstan and pinch roller clean.
To clean them, perform the following:
1. Open the cassette holder.
2. Using a cotton swab dipped in alcohol, clean the
head
(recording/playback/erase),
capstan
and
pinch roller carefully.
Demagnetizing the head
When the recording/playback head is magnetized, the
sound quality will be deteriorated. In such a case,
demagnetize the head using a commercially availa-
ble demagnetizer (head eraser).
Note:
There are precisely aligned parts around the heads,
including the tape guides.
When cleaning, pay special attention so as not to ap-
ply shock to them.
Beware of condensation
When water vapor comes into contact with the surface of cold materi-
al, water drops are produced.
If condensation occurs, correct operation may not be possible, or the
unit may not function correctly.
This is not a malfunction, however, and the unit should be dried. (To
do this, turn the POWER switch ON and leave the unit as it is for several
hours.)
Be specially careful in the following conditions:
®@ When the unit is brought from a cold place to a warm place, and
there is a large temperature difference.
@ When a heater starts operating.
@ When the unit is brought from an air-conditioned place to a place
of high temperature with high humidity .
@ When there is a large difference between the internal tempera-
ture of the unit and ambient temperature, or in conditions where
condensation occurs easily.
