• Do not play a cassette w hose tape has gone slack. In such a case,
w ind it tight using a pencil or the like in one of the spools. Playing
slack cassette tapes can result in the tape tangling around the cap-

heater outlets. They can deform the cassette.
• Avoid using extremely long cassette tapes, such as 100-minute-long
tapes. Such tapes are very thin, and can tangle easily around the
pinch rollers or other parts inside the unit, causing unit failure.
• Remove a cassette tape from the unit w hen not listening to it for a
