Acura 2003 NSX, Owner'S Manual

Page: 117 / 303

The REPLAY, SKIP and SCAN
functions use silent periods on the
tape to find the end of a selection.
These features may not work satis-
factorily on tapes that have almost
no gap between songs, a high noise
level between songs, or silent peri-
ods in the middle of songs. After 50 hours of use, the CLEAN
light comes on to remind you to
clean the cassette drive. After clean-
ing the drive, turn off the CLEAN
light by pushing it in with the tip of a
ballpoint pen or similar object.
If you do not clean the cassette
player regularly, it may eventually
become impossible to remove the
contamination with a normal
cleaning kit.
Use 100-minute or shorter cassettes.
Cassettes longer than that use
thinner tape that may break or jam
the drive.
The cassette drive picks up dirt and
oxides whenever you play a tape.
This builds up over time and causes
the sound quality to degrade. To
prevent this, you should clean the
cassette drive after every 30 hours of
use. Your dealer has a cleaning kit
available for this purpose.
