MAINTENANCE
The importance of cleaning
When the tape is moving, magnetic powder and dust
naturally accumulates on the heads, capstan and
pinch roller. When they become too dirty:
@ Tone quality deteriorates
@ the output sound level drops
@ the previous sound is not satisfactorily erased.
® recordings are not satisfactory.
Because of these, clean the heads, etc. every 10 hours
of use.so that important recordings will not be
missed.
Cleaning the heads, capstan and pinch roller
Press the @ STOP/ & EJECT button to open the
cassette holder.
Then clean the heads, pinch roller and capstan. For
effective cleaning, use a cleaning kit available from
your audio store. ,
After cleaning, be sure that the cleaning fluid is com-
pletely dry before loading a cassette.
