slackness and dust when it is not in use.
3. Keep the cassette tape away from direct sunlight, heat
and magnetic fields such as the radio speakers.
4. Before inserting a tape, make sure that the label is
adhering flatly to the cassette.

a loose tape, insert the eraser end of a pencil into the tape
drive gear and twist the pencil in the required directions.
