The quality and condition of the cassette tapes you use will have a direct effect on
the performance of this set.
Low quality tapes tend to be broken and stretched and a broken tape can easily
become entangled in the drive mechanism, causing major damage. Stretched tapes
will run at uneven speeds and will distort anything recorded on them.

Use only well-known brands of tapes.

Generally, a fresh blank tape is most desirable for use when recording. A tape with
previously recorded information can also be used since this set erases the tape in
the recording process, providing the Record Interlock defeat tabs are in place. For
more information on these tabs, see PROTECTING CASSETTE TAPE AGAINST
ERASURE on page 15.

1. After a period of time, especially when inexpensive brands of tapes are used,
the sound during playback may become muffled or, in extreme cases, almost
inaudible.
This is most frequently NOT A FAULT OF THE SET ITSELF but merely a deposit of
oxide and other dirt on the tape heads.
The easiest way to solve this problem is by using a head-cleaning cassette. Follow
the instructions provided with the cleaner carefully.
The tape head is a delicate precision component and serious damage will result if
you attempt to scrape dirt away with a sharp tool.
2. Other common causes of trouble are:
(a)Tapes jamming - leading to uneven speed during playback.
(b)Tapes tangling - where the tape wraps itself around vital parts of the
mechanism.
To reduce the chances of these problems occurring, you should take the following
precautions:
(1)Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the cassette center
window (see FIG. 1). Tighten these loose layers of tape using a pencil before
inserting the cassette into the set (see FIG. 2).
(2)If the cassette feels tight while performing the operation as shown in FIG. 2, the
tape may be jamming due to ridges in the winding of the tape (visible through
the center window). These may be removed in most cases by fast winding the
cassette from one end to the other and back again, or the tape may be permanently
damaged. Do not play damaged or worn out tapes, as this may cause your set to
break.
