Precautions
Environment
Avoid using the deck in the following cir-
cumstances:
High temperature (such as heater, direct
sunlight).
e Extremely low temperature.
© Excessive humidity,
Dusty atmosphere.
Where power line voltage fluctuation is
severe (the use of a voltage regulator may
be advisable).

Cassette Tape (Fig. 3)
Tape Selection:
For the automatic tape select function to
work properly, metal and chrome (cobalt)
formula tapes must have tape identification
holes.
C-120 cassette tapes:
120-minute tapes are very thin, they tend
to stretch and their magnetic layer is thin;
they also tend to introduce wow & flutter.
For these reasons, special attention is
required when using them. If the pinch
roller or capstan is dirty, tape might become
wrapped around it and this could cause
serious trouble. For this reason, it is re-
commended that you do not use C-120
tapes.
Tape Handling:
Do not store tape in the following places:
© On top of heaters, in direct sunlight or in
any other high-temperature areas,
© Near speakers, on TV sets or amplifiers or
near any strong magnetic fields,
@ High-humidity areas or dirty, dusty areas,
Avoid dropping or subjecting the cassettes
to excessive shock,
