Tips on Caring for the Cassette Player and
Tapes
In order to keep your cassette tape player
performing the way it was meant to, read and
follow these simple precautions:
Using a Ford Cassette Cleaning Cartridge to
clean the tape player head after 10-12 hours
of play will help maintain the best playback
sound and proper tape operation.
Only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or
less should be used. Tapes longer than 90
minutes are thinner and subject to breakage
or may jam the tape player mechanism.
Protect cassettes from exposure to direct
sunlight, high humidity and extreme heat or
cold. If they are exposed to extreme
conditions, allow them to reach a moderate
temperature before playing.
If a tape is loose inside the cassette, tighten it
before playing by putting your finger or a
pencil into one of the holes and turning the
hub until the tape is tight.
Loose labels on cassette tapes can become
lodged in the mechanism. Remove any loose
label material before inserting cassette.
Do not leave a tape in the cassette tape
player. High heat in the vehicle can cause the
cassette to warp.
