Cleaning
Cleaning the heads and tape path
Clean the heads and tape path of the tape deck after
every 10 hours of operation to guard against:
• a decrease in sound level
• excessive wow or flutter
• sound dropout
• incomplete erasure
To ensure better recording, we recommend that you
clean the heads and tape path before every recording.
1 Set the volume control on the amplifier to
minimum.
2 With the tape deck turned off, hold down § OPEN/
CLOSE and press POWER. The holder opens, the
heads rise, and the pinch rollers begin to rotate.
3 Wipe the heads, the pinch rollers, and the capstans
with a cotton swab slightly moistened with alcohol
or a commercially available cleaning fluid for tape
decks.
4 When completed, press § OPEN/CLOSE again.
Do not insert a cassette until the cleaned areas are
completely dry.
Demagnetizing the heads
After 20 to 30 hours of use, or when you notice a
hissing sound or loss of high frequencies, demagnetize
the heads with a commercially available demagnetizer
for tape decks. Please refer to the instructions of the
demagnetizer.
