mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored in their
cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and
extreme heat. If they aren’t, they may not operate
properly
or
may cause failure of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned regularly after
every
50
hours of use. Your radio may display
CLN
to indicate
that you have used your tape player for
50
hours without
resetting the tape clean timer.
If
you notice a reduction in
sound quality,
try
a known good cassette to see
if
the tape
or the tape player is at fault.
If
this
other cassette has no
improvement in sound quality, clean the
tape
player.
Cleaning may be done with
a
scrubbing action, non-abrasive
cleaning cassette with pads which scrub the
tape
head
as
the
hubs of the cleaner cassette
turn.
A
scrubbing action cleaning
cassette is available through your Aurora retailer.
You may also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet-type
cleaner which uses a cassette with a fabric belt
to
clean
the tape head. It may not clean as thoroughly as the
scrubbing type cleaner.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may
degrade over time. Always make sure that the cassette
tape
is
in
good condition before
you
have your
tape
player serviced.
Care
of
Your
Compact
Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust.
If
the surface of
a
disc is soiled, dampen a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling
discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
