MAINTENANCE HINTS
1. When not in use, always remove the cassette from the player.
2. The cassette case is made of high impact plastic and should not be
exposed to heat exceeding 55" C, as this may result in deforming.
Also, the cassette should not be left in temperatures below –5"C,
as this may result in brittle tape easily broken during playback. If
the tape has been exposed to extreme cold, it should be allowed to
warm up before playing.
3. Never place cassette tape in the vicinity of a strong magnetic field
such as electric motors, loudspeakers, TVs, radio sets or other
electrical appliances. Also, avoid touching the surface of the tape as
this may result in erasure or distortion of the recording.

that are not exposed to excessive heat (do not leave in the sun),
cold or humidity.
Proper care will ensure longer tape life and more satisfactory per-
formance.
Protect the unit and the cassette cartridges from the moisture.
Close all windows when washing the car.
When replacing the fuse, make sure to use a new one of 2 amperes
(maximum rating) fuse. If a fuse blows again, recheck wiring or
have the unit bench tested at a service station before reoperating.
NOTE: The fuse is built in the unit with soldering.
Clean the tape head, capstans and pinch rollers once a month or
after every 50 – 80 hours or use with a soft cloth or cotton soaked
in head cleaner.
For trouble free usage of C-90 or C-120 cassette tapes, it is highly
recommended that you use the higher priced, finer quality cassette
cartridges.
