OTHER INFORMATION
Cleaning the Heads
Demagnetizing the Heads
• If the cassette deck‘s head are dirty, tapes cannot be
played or recorded with good sound quality.
• To take full advantage of all the performance this
cassette deck has to offer and ensure good quality
sound, clean the heads periodically after approximately
10 hours of use, using a commercially available cleaning
cassette.
• The heads become magnetized after they have been used for an extended period of time or if they are exposed to a
magnetic object. This results in noise or a loss of the treble sound.
• If the heads are magnetized, use a commercially available cassette-type head demagnetizer to demagnetize them.
NOTE:
• Some commercially available cleaning cassettes are
highly abrasive and may damage the heads. Avoid
using such cleaning cassettes.
