Cassette Player and Care

Precaution

About the Cassette Player

• A loose or warped label on a cassette tape may interfere with the eject mechanism of the

unit or cause the cassette to become jammed in the unit. Avoid using such tapes or
remove such labels from the cassette before attempting use.

• The music search, repeat and scan functions may not work properly with the following

kinds of recorded tapes because the gap between songs cannot be found correctly.
* A tape with a gap of 4 seconds or less between songs.
* A tape containing dialog, etc., with pauses lasting for 4 seconds or longer.
* A tape with an extremely quiet passage in the music lasting for 4 seconds or longer.

About Cassette Tapes

• Do not use tapes longer than C-90 type (90 min.) cassettes. Longer tapes can interfere

with tape transport.

• Storing cassettes in areas directly exposed to sunlight or high temperatures can distort

them and subsequently interfere with tape transport.

• Store unused tapes in a tape case where there is no danger of them becoming loose or

being exposed to dust.

Cleaning the Head

If the head becomes dirty, the sound quality will deteriorate and there will be sound
dropouts and other imperfections in performance. In this case, the head must be cleaned.
