the services of a qualified electrician. Under no circumstances should
the user attempt to defeat the polarization of the plug.
Power-Cord Protection — Power-supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed

Deck Location
Do not use or leave in direct sunlight or in other places sub-
ject to high temperature and humidity. The unit should also
not be left in potentially hot places such as near heating ap-
pliances. Excessive heat and moisture can lead to internal
damage and serious malfunctions (this also applies to cassette
tapes). The recommended ambient temperature range is 5°C
to 35°C.
Avoid damp and dusty places and locations prone to vibra-
tions.
Be extremely careful with the recording/playback heads.
Clean and demagnetize them regularly, but under no circum-
stances should magnets or other metals be used anywhere
near the heads. :
This unit is extremely sensitive to magnetic fields, so do not
use near large speakers or other devices which generate mag-
netic fields.
Hum may even be induced by magnetic flux leakage from the
power transformer in certain amplifiers. Therefore, this unit
should also be kept clear of the amplifier.
Do not remove the cabinet case. If any of the internal parts
are handled, there is a considerable danger of electric shock.
Cassettes to Avoid:
Cassettes with poorly formed cases that rattle during rewind
and fast forward.
Low cost'cassettes with no guide roller or pressure pad spring
should never be used for stereo.
C-120 cassettes—because the tape and the coating areex-
tremely thin, distortion levels are high. Also, even a slight
stretching of the tape will make it susceptible to being caught
up in the pinch roller and capstan.
Endless tapes, if used for a long period of time, can overheat.
