Tape Handling
Do not store tapes in the following places:
… On top of heaters, exposed to direct sunlight or in any other
places with high temperatures.
… Near speakers, on TV sets or amplifiers or where they would
be exposed to strong magnetic fields.
… Where humidity is high and in dirty, dusty places.
… Avoid dropping or subjecting cassettes to excessive shocks.
… As C-120 tapes are physically weak and could become
entangled in the transport mechanism, do not use them.
Tape Selection
For the automatic tape select function to work properly, metal
and chrome (cobalt) tapes must have identification holes.

… Read the instructions of each component you intend to use
with the deck.
Read This Before Operating
… Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust,
heat, cold or moisture. Keep away from such sources that
hum, such as transformers or motors.
… Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the
circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into
the set, contact your dealer.
… When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always
pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.
… Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
… Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
