CASSETTE TAPE HANDLING TIPS
1.
High quality tapes are recommended to obtain maximum quality
reproduction from recordings.
2.
Tapes with playing time of 120 minutes (C-120) are not
recommended because they contain thinner and longer tape that
has a greater chance to malfunction and jam, which may damage
the cassette mechanism.
3.
To obtain good reproduction, the head should be cleaned after
every 10 to 20 hours of use. It is also recommended that the
cassette be kept away from excessive heat or cold.
4.
If there is slack in the tape, remove the slack prior to inserting
the cassette. To remove the slack, insert a pencil into the hub and
rotate clockwise.
5.
A leader tape is provided at the beginning on each cassette. There
is no recording on this area, so it is necessary to let the tape run
for about five seconds to clear the head.
6.
Keep the tape head clean since a dirty head can cause distorted
sound or improper tape speed. Depress the PLAY button and use
