Tips on Caring for the Cassette Player and
Tapes
In order to keep your cassette tape player
performing the way it was meant to, read and
follow these simple precautions:
Using a Ford or equivalent cassette cleaning
cartridge to clean the tape player head after
10-12 hours of play will help maintain the
best playback sound and proper tape
operation.
Only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or
less should be used. Tapes longer than 90
minutes are thinner and subject to breakage
or may jam the tape player mechanism.
