Restoring Tape Tension and Sound Quality
After you play a cassette tape several times, the tape might become tightly wound
on the reels causing sound quality to deteriorate. To restore sound quality:
1. Fast-forward the tape from the beginning to the end of one side, then
completely rewind it.
2. Loosen the tape reels by gently tapping each side of the cassette on a flat
surface.
YWCaution: Be careful not to damage the cassette when tapping it. Do not touch
the exposed tape or allow any sharp objects near the cassette.
Cleaning the Tape-Handling Parts
Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape’s coating can accumulate on the tape heads and
other parts. This can greatly reduce the performance of the cassette recorder. After
every 20 hours of tape recorder operation, use a cassette deck cleaning kit (not
supplied) or follow these steps to clean the tape-handling parts.
1. Remove the batteries and disconnect any other power source.
2. Open the cassette deck cover.
