CUSTOMER
Selecting fine a dio eq ipment s ch as the nit yo 've j st p rchased is only the start of
yo r m sical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how yo can maximize the f n and
excitement yo r eq ipment offers. This man fact rer and the Electronic Ind stries
Association's Cons mer Electronics Gro p want yo to get the most o t of yo r
eq ipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the so nd come thro gh lo d and
clear witho t annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, witho t affecting yo r
sensitive hearing. So nd can be deceiving. Over time yo r hearing "comfort level"
adapts to higher vol mes of so nd. So what so nds "normal" can act ally be lo d and
harmf l to yo r hearing. G ard against this by setting yo r eq ipment at a safe level
BEFORE yo r hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start yo r vol me control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the so nd ntil yo can hear it comfortably and clearly, and witho t
distortion.
• Once yo have established a comfortable so nd level: Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a min te to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the f t re.
After all, we want yo listening for a lifetime.
We Want You istening For a ifetime
Used wisely, yo r new so nd eq ipment will provide a
lifetime of f n and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from
lo d noise is often ndetectable ntil it is too late, this
man fact rer and the Electronic Ind stries Association's
Cons mer Electronics Gro p recommend yo avoid
prolonged expos re to excessive noise.

ABOUT CASSETTE TAPES
Whenever yo record on a cassette any previo sly recorded material is erased as the
new material is recorded. To prevent yo from accidentally erasing material which yo
wish to save, blank cassettes are eq ipped with erase prevention tabs for each side of
the tape. If the erase prevention tab for side A is removed, yo cannot accidentally
record on side A. The Record key cannot be depressed if the erase prevention tab on
the cassette has been removed.
To prevent accidental erasing on side A of a cassette se a small screw driver or similar
tool to break off the erase prevention tab for side A. This prevents the record key form
locking.
If later yo do wish to record on side A of the cassette, cover the tab opening with a piece
of cellophane tape. This will allow the Record to f nction again.

CASSETTE CARE
Two common ca ses of tro ble experienced when sing cassettes are:
1) Tape Jamming – Leading to neven speed in playback, and
2) Tape Tangling – Where the tape wraps itself aro nd ital parts of the mechanism.
To red ce the likelihood of these problems occ rring, the following preca tions sho ld be
observed:
 Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible thro gh
the cassette center window (see Fig. 1). Take p any loose
layers, sing a pencil or hexagonal barrelled ballpoint pen,
before inserting the cassette into the machine (see Fig.2)
If the cassette feels tight while performing operation shown
(see Fig.2), the tape may be jamming d e to ridges formed in the winding of the tape
(visible thro gh the center window). These may be removed, in most cases, by fast
winding of the cassette from one end to the other and back again.
 Use only well-known brands of tape. Avoid se of C-120 cassettes.
F rthermore, do not expose cassettes to direct s nlight, d st or oil, and do not to ch the
tape s rfaces.
HEAD C EANING
The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan req ire periodic cleaning. This removes
particles of the metal oxide coating that wear off the tape and acc m late on these parts
and impair performance. Switch off the power, press the Stop/Eject key to open the
cassette door, and press the Play key. Clean the tape heads, pinch roller and capstan
with a soft cloth or cotton pad dampened in isopropyl alcohol or special tape head
cleaner.
1. Avoid operating yo r nit nder direct s nlight or in hot, h mid or d sty places.
2. Keep yo r nit away from heating appliances and so rces of electrical noise s ch as
fl orescent lamps or motors.
3. For better Clock Display clarity, avoid operating the nit nder direct s nlight or in
strong room ill mination.
4. Unpl g the nit from the electrical power o tlet immediately in case of malf nction.
