A tape player that is not cleaned regularly is subject to reduced sound
quality, ruining the cassette, or
a damaging the mechanism. Tape cassettes
that are not properly stored in their plastic cases away from \
contaminants,
direct sunlight, and extreme heat may not operate properly and could cause
premature failure of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned monthly or with every
15 hours of use,
as regular maintenance. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a
good cassette to see
if the tape or the tape player is at fault. If the second
cassette results in
no improvement in sound quality, try cleaning the tape
player.
Proper tape player cleaning should be done with a
wiping-action
non-abrasive cleaner cassette. To properly clean your tape player, you
should follow the directions on the cleaning cassette.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrad\
e over time.
Always verify that the cassette tape is in good condition befo\
re obtaining service on your tape player.
