Safety precautions

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high tem-

peratures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions can

damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the unit’s

service life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and

cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting

the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor

connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not pull,

bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains

lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric shock

or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or mal-

function. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the power sup-

ply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable

gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted, indi-

cators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not covered

in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your

dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to the unit

can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unquali-

fied persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source if it

is not to be used for a long time.

Maintenance

If the surfaces are dirty

To clean this unit, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

pNever use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.

pBefore using chemically treated cloth, read the instructions that came with

the cloth carefully.

For a cleaner crisper sound

Clean the heads regularly to assure good quality playback and recording.

Use a cleaning tape (not included).

Cassette tape selection and care

The unit can correctly play or record on the following types. It identifies the

type automatically.

pTapes exceeding 100 minutes are thin and can break or get caught in the

mechanism.

pTape slack can get caught up in the mechanism and should be taken up

before the tape is played.

pEndless tapes can get caught up in the deck’s moving parts if used incor-

rectly. Use tapes appropriate to this unit’s auto-reverse mechanism.
