Even though a compact disc is
durable, treat the CD surface with
care.
• Do not write on either side of the
CD, particularly the non-label
side (signals are read from the
non-label side).
• Do not store CDs in high
temperature or high humidity
areas. They might warp.
• Keep CDs dry. A water drop can
act as a lens and affect the laser
beam's focus.
• Always handle a CD by the
edges to avoid fingerprints and
always keep it in its protective
case or sleeve when it is not in
use. Fingerprints and scratches
on the CD's surface can prevent
the laser beam from correctly
reading the digital information. If
the CD gets scratched, use
RadioShack Scratch 'n Fix to
repair the disc.

After you play a cassette tape
several times, the tape might
become tightly wound on the reels.
This can cause playback sound
quality to deteriorate.
To restore the sound quality, fastforward the tape from the beginning
to the end of one side, then
completely rewind it. Then loosen
the tape reels by gently tapping
each edge of the cassette on a flat
surface.

To record over a cassette tape,
simply record as usual. The
cassette deck records over the
previous recording.
You can quickly erase both sides of
a cassette tape using a
RadioShack bulk tape eraser.

Cassette tapes have two eraseprotection tabs — one for each
side. When a tab is in place, you
can record on that side.
To prevent accidental erasure of a
tape recording, use a screwdriver
to remove one or both of the
cassette tape’s erase-protection
tabs. This prevents
being pressed.
If you later decide to record on a
tape side after you have removed
the erase-protection tab, place a

that side’s erase-protection hole.

Keep the system dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
Use and store the system only in normal temperature
environments. Handle the system carefully; do not drop it.
Keep the system away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a
damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Modifying or tampering with the system’s internal
components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate
its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If
your system is not performing as it should, take it to your
local RadioShack store for assistance.

Dirt, dust or particles of the tape's coating can accumulate
on the tape heads and other parts that the tape touches.
This can greatly reduce the performance of the cassette
player. After every 20 hours of tape player operation, follow
these steps to clean the tape-handling parts or use a
RadioShack cassette deck cleaning kit.
