MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE HEAD SECTION
The heads, capstan and pinch roller are parts which are liable
to get dirty quite easily. In particular, if the heads are dirty,
the high frequency
components
of the sound
will not be
reproduced and the stereo balance will be impaired, resulting
in a deterioration of sound quality. it is therefore recommended
that the head section be cleaned regularly.
1, Press the STOP/EJECT switch to open the cassette door.
2. Dip a cleaning swab into the cleaning fluid and use it to
wipe the heads, capstan, and pinch roller.
NOTE:
°
Clean the head as shawn in the below drawing.

DEMAGNETIZING THE HEAD
The head becomes magnetized when you use the tape deck
for prolonged periods of time. This results in noise being gener-
ated and the treble dropping off during recording and playback.
The head should therefore be demagnetized regularly with a
head demagnetizer (sold separately). For further details, re-
fer to the operating instructions accompanying your head
demagnetizer.
NOTE:
*
Do not hold screwdrivers, metal objects, or magnets close
to the heads.

When demagnetizing the heads, be sure the unit's
POWER switch is in the standby position.
