Care of compact discs
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking
can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow
the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collec-
tion and player.
●
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label
side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
●
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive
moisture.
●
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on
the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does
not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out
from the centre, along the radius.
Maintenance
■
Cleaning the tape-handling parts
●
Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and
tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with
commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
●
When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit
which contains high voltages.
●
After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become mag-
netised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once eve-
ry 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape
head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions care-
fully before use.
■
Cleaning the cabinet
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap
solution, then with a dry cloth.
Caution:
●
Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.).
It may damage the cabinet finish.
●
Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause
malfunctions.
