NOTE:

 If the recorder begins to sound distored, or the tape 

reels turn very slowly or not at all, be sure to check with a 
new set  of batteries or another cassette before seeking 
service. 
 
IMPORTANT: Be sure to remove the batteries when storing 
the set for more than a few weeks at a time. Leak batteries 
can dadly damage the recorder. When discarding batteries, 
be sure to dispose of them in the proper manner, according 
to provincial and local regulations. 
Always push STOP before storing. This will relieve 
pressure on certain parts in the recorder that might deform 
after long periods of time.
