Maintenance; Removing The Unit - Sony XR-1951 Operating Instructions Manual

Notes on Cassettes
Cassette care
Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as
any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.
Keep cassettes away from equipment with
built-in magnets such as speakers and
amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the
recorded tape could occur.
Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight,
extremely cold temperatures or moisture.
Slack in the tape may cause the tape to be
caught in the machine. Before you insert the
tape, use a pencil or similar object to turn the
reel and take up any slack.
Distorted cassettes and loose labels can cause
problems when inserting or ejecting tapes.
Remove or replace loose labels.
Cassettes longer than 90 minutes
The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is
not recommended except for long continuous
play. The tapes used for these cassettes are
very thin and tend to be stretched easily.
Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes
may cause them to be pulled into the cassette
deck mechanism.

Fuse Replacement
When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one
matching the amperage rating stated on the
fuse. If the fuse blows, check the power
connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse
blows again after replacement, there may be
an internal malfunction. In such a case, consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
Remove the bracket first, then replace the fuse
on the rear of the unit.
Slack
Warning
Never use a fuse with an amperage rating
exceeding the one supplied with the unit as
this could damage the unit.

To prevent the unit from being stolen
When you leave your car, remove the unit
from the bracket and take it away with you.
Be sure to turn off the power of the unit before
removing the unit, otherwise you may hear a
noise.

Be careful when you remove the unit. The rear
of the unit becomes very hot just after

amplifer.
