Environmental information

All unnecessary packaging has been omitted.
We have tried to make the packaging easy to
separate into three materials: cardboard (box),
polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags,
protective foam sheet).

Your system consists of materials which can be
recycled and reused if disassembled by a
specialized company. Please observe the local
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old
equipment.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Heads and the Tape Paths

● To ensure good recording and playback quality,

clean the heads A and B, the capstan(s) C,

and pressure roller(s) D after every 50 hours
of tape operation.

● Use a cotton swab slightly moistened with

cleaning fluid or alcohol.

● You can also clean the heads by playing a

cleaning tape once.

Demagnetizing the heads

● Use a demagnetizing tape available at your

dealer.

English

Cleaning the Cabinet

● Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild

detergent solution. Do not use a solution
containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasives.

Cleaning Discs

● When a disc becomes dirty,

clean it with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center
out.

● Do not use solvents such as

benzene, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or antistatic
spray intended for analog records.

Cleaning the disc lens

● After prolonged use, dirt or dust may

accumulate at the disc lens. To ensure good
playback quality, clean the disc lens with Philips

surface.

● Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to

excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

● Place the system in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in
your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit
and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.

● The ventilation should not be impeded by

covering the ventilation openings with items,
such as newspapers table-cloths, cur tains, etc.

or splashing.

● No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall

be placed on the apparatus.
