Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause reduced so\
und 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 15 hours of
use. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a known good cassette to
see if the tape or the 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 clean\
ing cassette,
and follow the directions provided with it.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrad\
e over time.
Always make sure that the cassette tape is in good condition before you
have your tape player serviced.
