VOLUME
For your driving safety, keep
the volume low enough to be
aware of road and traffic
conditions.
Precautions
TEMPERATURE IN
THE VEHICLE
In order to ensure proper
performance, be sure the
temperature in your vehicle
is between 14°F (–10°C)
and 140°F (60°C) before
turning your player on.Good
air circulation is essential to
prevent heat build-up in the
unit (especially in hot
weather).
CAR WASHING
Do not wash the radio,
speakers, or tape; moisture
can cause electrical shorts
or other damage.
TAPE MECHANISM
Keep magnets,
screwdrivers, and other
metallic objects away from
the tape mechanism and
tape head.
OUTSIDE
CLEANING
Use a soft cloth to clean the
radio.
Do not use kerosene,
thinner, or any other type of
solvent.

Cassette and Player Maintenance
TYPES OFTAPE AND USAGE
There are 5 basic types of tape, each with its own
formulation of material that can be magnetized, but for
convenience they are divided into two categories.
1) Normal (Type I) and low noise give average frequency
response and fidelity and can be played in all cassette
tape players.
2) FeCr (Type III), CrO2(Type II), and Metal (Type IV) give
above average frequency response and fidelity, and
should be used in tape players with FeCr, CrO2, or Metal
tape capability.
CLEANING
Automotive cassette players
require at least the same
amount of care given to
home units, and then some.
This means a regular
schedule of head
demagnetization and
cleaning of the capstan,
roller, and head is necessary
to maintain optimum
performance.
TAPE SLACK
Cassette Tapes require very
little maintenance, but do
require careful storage away
from direct sunlight,
magnetic sources, and dusty
areas.Check tape for slack
and tighten with a pencil or
similar object before
inserting in tape player.
TAPE LENGTHS
Use 100-minute or shorter
cassettes. Cassettes longer
than 100 minutes use
thinner tape that may break
or jam the tape mechanism.
