moistened with mild detergent solution. Do not use strong
solvents, such as alcohol, benzine or thinner as these could
damage the finish of the unit.

After cleaning the heads and tape paths with a liquid head
cleaning cassette or a moistened swab, wait until the
cleaned parts are completely dry before inserting the tapes.
To demagnetize the heads
The heads may become magnetized after long-term use.
This may narrow the output range of recorded tapes and
increase noise. After 20 to 30 hours use, demagnetize the
heads with any commercially available demagnetizer.
Care of discs
When a disc becomes dirty, wipe the disc from the center
out with a cleaning cloth.
After playing a
disc,
