Care and Maintenance
Compact Discs
Handle your compact discs, cassette tapes, and
Cassette Deck carefully, and they will last a
long time.
• Remove the CD from the case by holding
it at the edges while pressing the center
hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD,
or bend the CD.
• Put the CD back in its case after use to
prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the
CD when placing it back in the case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,
temperature extremes, and moisture.
• A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD
does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth
in a straight line from center to edge.
CAUTION: Do not use any solvent
(for example, conventional record cleaner,
spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.
Moisture Condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside
the Unit in the following cases:
•
After starting the heating in the room.
• In a damp room.
• If the Unit is brought directly from a
cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the Unit may
malfunction. In this case, leave the Unit
turned on for a few hours until the
moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power
cord, and then plug it in again.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your
tapes, CDs, and the mechanism clean.
•
Store tapes and CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets
or on shelves.
• Keep the Cassette Deck’s tape doors and the CD trays closed
when not in use.
Cassette Tapes
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take
up the slack by inserting a pencil in
one of the reels and rotating.
• If the tape is loose, it may get
stretched, cut, or caught in the cassette.
• Do not touch the tape surface.
• Do not store the tape:
-
In dusty places
- In direct sunlight or heat
- In moist areas
- On a TV or speaker
- Near a magnet
Cassette Deck
• If the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers of the Cassette Deck
become dirty, the following will occur:
-
Loss of sound quality
- Discontinuous sound
- Fading
- Incomplete erasure
- Difficulty recording
• Clean the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers using a cotton
swab moistened with alcohol.
• If the heads become magnetized, the Unit will produce noise
or lose high frequencies.
• To demagnetize the heads, turn off the Unit, and use a head
demagnetizer (available at electronics and record shops).
