program selector. Each time the selector is
pushed and released, the next program will
play. Programs will play in succession
(change automatically), and continuously,
if manual selector is not pushed. The tape

6. To turn tape player off, remove cartridge
from tape slot, push the on/off selector off
(button out). Never leave a cartridge in the
tape slot when player is not in use. Store
tapes in a cool area with open end down.
Protect tapes from dust and direct sun¬
light.
In time, oxide from recording tape will
accumulate on the tape head and capstan
shaft which can cause tape hiss and erratic
operation. The more often the tape player is
used, the more often it should be cleaned.
Clean the head with a cotton swab moistened
with isopropyl alcohol. Do not use carbon
tetrachloride.
To clean the capstan shaft, first turn on the
motor by depressing the motor switch (next
to the capstan shaft) with the eraser end of a
pencil. Use a cotton swab moistened with
alcohol on the shaft.
The fuse for the radio, or radio/tape is located
behind the unit. To gain access to fuse,

The fuse is secured within an inline fuse
holder.

switch (left under thermostat) to "HI" posi¬
tion (4) Set main switch (right under thermo¬
stat) to "cool." When the inside temperature

Remove, brush off loose lint, run water
through filter or move it briskly in soapy
detergent water. Rinse thoroughly, dry com¬
pletely and replace. The unit has a low voltage
starter kit to help start under marginal condi¬
tions. Do not run under 103 volts.
Stainless steel sinks cannot be harmed by
boiling water. However, salt, mustard, mayon¬
naise and ketchup will cause pitting. Stubborn
stains will yield to paste made of water and
slightly abrasive cleaner. Be sure to work in
the direction of the polish-lines on the steel,
to keep the original finish. Fingerprints are
sometimes a problem. They can be minimized
by applying a cleaner that leaves a film of thin
wax: simply wipe it on and remove the excess
with a dry cloth. After this, fingerprints can
be wiped off with a soft dry cloth, or one
moistened with a little wax cleaner. The
surface should always be washed before wax
is applied. Regular cleaning will prevent build¬
up of scale and film. Ordinary soaps or
detergents are best for routine cleaning of the
stainless steel sinks. Rinse thoroughly with
warm water and wipe dry with a cloth to
avoid streaks and spots.
