■Cleaning the cassette player
Cassette player components (heads, capstan, pinch rollers) should be cleaned at
least once a month using a cleaning tape to remove dirt and dust that can easily
build up.
■Using long playing cassette tapes
Avoid using tapes with a length of more than 90 minutes, as the tape used is very
thin and may become tangled in the cassette player.
NOTICE
■Cassette tapes that cannot be used
Do not use a cassette tape if it has been damaged or tangled or if its label is peeling
off. Such tapes may affect playing speed and may also get stuck in the player.
■Cassette player precautions
●Store cassette tapes away from direct sunlight.
●Do not insert anything other than cassette tapes into the cassette player.
●Do not apply oil to the cassette player.
