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 may cause failure of the tape player.
Your
tape player should be cleaned regularly after every
50 hours of use. Your radio may display CLN or CLEAN
TAPE to indicate that you have used your tape player for
50 hours without resetting the tape clean timer. Each time
the cassette
is cleaned, the 50 hour cassette timer should
be reset. This is done by holding down the eject button
for five seconds or until the
TAPE CLEAN message is
displayed. 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.
Cleaning may be done with a scrubbing action,
non-abrasive cleaning cassette with pads which scrub
the
tape head as the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. It
is normal for the cassette
to eject while cleaning. Insert
the cassette at least six times to ensure thorough
cleaning.
A scrubbing action cleaning cassette is
available through your Cadillac dealer. You may
also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet-tyw
cleaner which uses a cassette with a fabric belt
to clean
the tape head. This type of cleaning cassette will not
eject.
It may not clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing
type cleaner.
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.
Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen
a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from the center
to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling
discs. Pick up discs
by grasping the outer edges or the
edge
of the hole and the outer edge.
