Maintenance
Fuse replacement
When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one
that matches the amperage described on the
fuse. If the fuse blows, check the power
connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse
blows again after replacement, there may be an
internal malfunction. In such a case, consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
Warning
Never use a fuse with an amperage rating
exceeding the one supplied with the unit as
this could damage the unit.
Cleaning the connectors
The unit may not function properly if the
connectors between the unit and the front
panel are not clean. To prevent this, open the
front panel by pressing
(OPEN)
, then detach it
and clean the connectors with a cotton swab
dipped in alcohol. Do not apply too much
force. Otherwise, the connectors may be
damaged.

Notes on cassette deck tape head
• Long use of cassette tapes contaminates the
tape head causing poor sound quality or
complete sound dropout. Therefore, we
recommend cleaning the tape head once a
month or so with the separately available
Sony Cassette Cleaning Set. If the sound does
not improve after using a cleaning cassette,
please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
• In case of old or inferior cassette tapes, the
tape head gets contaminated much more
quickly. Depending on the tape, one or two
playbacks may cause poor sound.
Cassette care
• Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as
any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.
• Keep cassettes away from equipment with
built-in magnets such as speakers and
amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the
recorded tape could occur.
• Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight,
extremely cold temperatures or moisture.
• Slack in the tape may cause the tape to be
caught in the machine. Before you insert the
tape, use a pencil or similar object to turn the
reel and take up any slack.
• Distorted cassettes and loose labels can cause
problems when inserting or ejecting tapes.
Remove or replace loose labels.
Cassettes longer than 90 minutes
The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is
not recommended except for long continuous
play. The tapes used for these cassettes are
very thin and tend to be stretched easily.
Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes
may cause them to be pulled into the cassette
deck mechanism.
