The radio and CD player sections of your new sound system do not require any
maintenance. We recommend you keep this manual for future reference on how
to set the clock and for general reference of the many features found in this unit.
As with any cassette player, the cassette section of this sound system does
require a minimum of maintenance to keep it in good working condition. The
following simple care and maintenance suggestions should be followed to
prevent malfunctions of the cassette system.
CASSETTE CARE:
1. Purchase a cassette cleaning kit from your local retail store. Use it! At least
every 20 to 30 hours of operation you must clean the cassette mechanism. A
dirty cassette player will have a poor sound.
2. Do not use cassettes that exceed 45 minutes of play on each side.
3. Do not insert a cassette that appears to be broken, twisted or dirty or with
loose or torn labels on it.
4. Always keep your cassettes away from direct sunlight or exposure to sub-
freezing conditions. If a cassette is cold, allow it to warm up before use.
5. Do not keep a cassette in the player when not in use.
6. Before inserting a cassette in the player, check that the tape is tightly wound
on the reels. Take up any excess slack using a pencil to turn the drive hub in
the cassette (see diagram below).
