Radio Shack Hi-Power CD+G Karaoke System - Manual (Page 17)

17 Troubleshooting
CARE
Keep the karaoke system dry; if it gets wet,
wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the
karaoke system only in normal temperature
environments. Handle the karaoke system
carefully; do not drop it. Keep the karaoke
system away from dust and dirt, and wipe it
with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it
looking new.
Modifying or tampering with the karaoke sys-
tem’s internal components can cause a mal-
function and might invalidate its warranty. If
your karaoke system is not performing as it
should, take it to your local RadioShack store
for assistance.
CLEANING THE TAPE-
HANDLING PARTS
Dirt, dust or particles of the tape's coating
can accumulate on the tape heads and other
parts that the tape touches. This can greatly
reduce the performance of the cassette play-
er. After every 20 hours of tape player opera-
tion, follow these steps to clean the tape-
handling parts or use a RadioShack cassette
deck cleaning kit.
1. Disconnect the AC power cord.
2. Open the cassette compartment door on
TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 then press PLAY on
both to expose the tape-handling parts.
3. Use a cotton swab dipped in denatured
alcohol or tape head cleaning solution to
clean the tape guides, record/play head,
erase head, pinch roller, and capstan.
4. When you finish cleaning, press STOP/
EJECT on TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 then
close both cassette compartment doors.
Then reconnect power.
