CARE AND MAINTENANCE

COMPACT DISC CARE

Treat the disc carefully. Handle the disc only by its edges. Never allow your fingers to come in
contact with the shiny, unprinted side of the disc.
Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers etc., to the disc label.
Clean the disc periodically with soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents or adhesive cleaners
to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
If disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the disc, it is probably dirty or damaged (scratched).
When cleaning the disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the disc to the edge of the disc.
Never wipe in circular motions.
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out,
holding it carefully by the edges.
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's recorded surface with a soft cloth.
Unlike conventional records. compact discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris
so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles.

TAPE HEAD CLEANING

The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan require periodic cleaning. This removes particles of the metal oxide
coating that wear off the tape and accumulate 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 swab dampened in isopropyl alcohol or special tape head cleaner.
NOTE: Never use any metal objects on or near the tape heads. Do not allow any cleaning material to fall into
the tape assembly.

COTTON SWAB

RECORD/PLAY HEAD

CLEANING THE UNIT

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning.
The finish on the unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture, Use caution
when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.
If the cabinet becomes dusty wipe it with a soft dry dust cloth. Do not use any wax or polish sprays
on the cabinet.
If the front panel becomes dirty or smudged with fingerprints it may be cleaned with a soft cloth
slightly dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Never use abrasive cloths or polishes as
these will damage the finish of your unit.

Caution: never allow any water or other liquids to get inside the unit while cleaning.
