CARE OF CASSETTE TAPES
CARE OF DISCSB850A02F-AATProper Handling
B850A01L
Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the
disc. Hold the disc so you will not leave finger-
prints on the surface. If the surface is scratched,
it may cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Do
not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on the
disc. Do not write on the disc.Damaged DiscDo not attempt to play damaged, warped or
cracked discs. These could severely damage
the playback mechanism.
StorageWhen not in use, place your discs in their
individual case and store them in a cool place
away from the sun, heat, and dust.
Do not grip or pull out the disc with your hand
while the disc is being pulled into the unit by the
self loading mechanism.Keep Your Discs Clean
B850A02L
Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of a disc
could cause the pickup to skip signal tracks.
Wipe the surface clean with a clean soft cloth.
If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen a clean
soft cloth in a solution of mild neutral detergent
to wipe it clean.
B860A01A-AATProper care of your cassette tapes will extend
the tape life and increase your listening enjoy-
ment. Always protect your tapes and cassette
cases from direct sunlight, severely cold and
dusty conditions. When not in use, cassettes
should always be stored in the original protec-
tive cassette case. When the vehicle is very hot
or cold, allow the interior temperature to become
more comfortable before listening to your cas-
settes.

o Never leave a cassette inserted in the player
when not being played. This could damage
the tape player unit and the cassette tape.
o We strongly recommend against the use of
tapes longer than C-60 (60 minutes total).
Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are very thin
and do not perform as well in the automotive
environment.o The playback head, capstan and pinch roll-
ers will develop a coating of tape residue that
can result in deterioration of sound quality,
such as a wavering sound. They should be
cleaned monthly using a commercially avail-
able head cleaning tape or special solution
available from audio specialty shops. Follow
the supplier's directions carefully and never
oil any part of the tape player unit.
o Always be sure that the tape is tightly wound
on its reel before inserting in the player.
Rotate a pencil in the drive sprockets to wind
up any slack.o Be sure that the cassette label is not loose
or peeling off or tape ejection may be difficult.
o Never touch or soil the actual audio tape
surfaces.
o Keep all magnetized objects, such as elec-
tric motors, speakers or transformers away
from your cassette tapes and tape player
unit.o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place with the
open side facing down to prevent dust from
setting in the cassette body.
o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to replay
one given tune or tape section. This can
cause poor tape winding to occur, and even-
tually cause excessive internal drag and
poor audio quality in the cassette. If this
occurs, it can sometimes be corrected by
fast winding the tape from end to end several
times. If this does not correct the problem, do
not continue to use the tape in your vehicle.

drive mechanism.
Do not leave tapes sitting where they are
exposed to hot, warm, or high humidity,
such as on top of the dashboard or in the
player.
If a tape is exposed to excessively hot or
cold, let it reach a moderate temperature
before putting it in the player.
