Internal care
•
Dirty heads, capstans and pinch rollers can cause poor
sound and tape jams.
Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with
commercially available head/pinch roller cleaner or
isopropyl alcohol, or with a commercially available
cleaning tape.
•
After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may
become magnetized, causing poor sound. Demagnetize
these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time
by using a commercial tape head demagnetizer. Read the
demagnetizer's instructions carefully before use.
External care
•
Periodically clean the surfaces of this system, especially
the top panel of KMA-GX5 to prevent the ventilation holes
from being blocked with dust etc.
•
Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other
chemicals. (See "Precautions".)
