NOTE:
* This unit uses a head-slant standby system, with the result that the
heads are mounted at an angled position.
[| DEMAGNETIZING THE HEAD
The recording/playback head becomes magnetized when you use the
cassette deck for prolonged periods of time. This results in noise being
génerated and the treble dropping off during recording and playback.
The recording/playback head should therefore be demagnetized regularly
with a commonly sold head demagnetizer.
For further details, refer to the operating instructions accompanying your
head dernagnetizer.

* Do not hold screwariver, metal objects or magnets close to the heads.
MAINTENANCE OF EXTERNAL SURFACES

@ Stylus
* The service life of the stylus on the supplied cartridge ranges from
800 to 1,000 hours. (After about one year if you play records about
two hours everyday. However, the stylus may need to be replaced
earlier depending on the way it is used.)
* Using a wom or damaged stylus can damage your records and distort
the sound reproduction. Remember to replace the stylus at the earliest
possible date.
* Always ask for a genuine PIONEER replacement stylus.
