CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Optimus SCP-105 Digital AM/FM Stereo Cassette
Player is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.
The following suggestions will help you care for your SCP-
105 so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the SCP-105 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry im-
mediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can
corrode the electronic circuits.

Use and store the SCP-105 only in normal temper-
ature environments. Temperature extremes can
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage bat-
teries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

Keep the SCP-105 away from dust and dirt, which
can cause premature wear of parts.

Handle the SCP-105 gently and carefully. Drop-
ping it can damage circuit boards and cases and
can cause the SCP-105 to work improperly.

Use only fresh batteries of the required size and
recommended type. Batteries can leak chemicals
that damage your SCP-105’s electronic parts.

Wipe the SCP-105 with a damp cloth occasionally
to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemi-
cals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the SCP-105.
