Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause reduced sound
quality, ruined cassettes, or a damaged mechanism. Cassette tapes should
be stored in their cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight, and
extreme heat.
If they aren’t, they may not operate properly or cause
failure
of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned regularly each month or after every
15 hours of use. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a known
good cassette to see if the tape or the tape player is at fault.
If this other
cassette has no improvement in sound quality, clean the tape player.
Clean your tape player with a wiping-action, non-abrasive cleaning
cassette, and follow the directions provided with it.

Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrade over
time. Always make sure that the cassette tape is in good condition before
you have your tape player serviced.
