■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.

very thin and may become tangled in the cassette player.

peeling off. Such tapes may affect playing speed and may also get stuck in
the player.
