Handling Cassette Tape
Instructions for use
<
Do not open a cassette or pull out the tape.
<
Do not touch the tape.
<
Do not leave cassette tapes in a place with a lot of rubbish or
dust.
<
Do not use or store cassette tapes in an area with high
temperatures or humidity.
<
Keep cassette tapes away from magnets or magnetized items
because they may cause noise or erase recorded contents.
Cassette tapes to avoid
The following cassette tapes may prevent the unit from
performing normal operation or functions. The tape of such
cassette tapes may get caught, causing unexpected problems.
Cassette tapes with poor form accuracy
Deformed cassettes, ones of which tape does not track properly,
or ones that generate abnormal noise during fast-forwarding or
rewinding.
Long-recording tapes
Tapes for recording 90 minutes or longer sometimes get caught
by the capstan because they are extremely thin and stretch easily.
Avoid using them as much as possible.
Slackening of tapes
Slackened tapes may get caught by the capstan or other parts.
Eliminate slack by using a pencil or alike before use.

Cleaning and demagnetizing the cassette
deck
A dirty head causes poor sound quality or sound skip. Dirt on the
tape tracking roller may catch the tape. Clean the head, pinch
roller, and capstan with a cotton applicator dampened with a
commercially available cleaning solution every ten hours of use.
When the head is magnetized, it increases noise and hinders the
unit from transmitting high notes. When these problems occur,
demagnetize the head using a commercially available head
eraser.

When playing a normal tape (type
!
), set the Tape Selecting
switch by the turntable to “normal.” When playing a chrome tape
(type
@
) or metal tape (type
!%
), set the switch to “high.”
Do not insert a cassette tape until the cleaning solution on the
head dries.
