BASIC OPERATIONS
Make sure that power to both the deck and your amplifier/receiver is turned off before making any connections. If the deck is placed near an amplifier, TV or tuner, noise (induced hum) or beat interference may result. If this occurs, place the deck further away from other components or reorient its position. C-120 cassette tapes are not recommended as they use a very thin tape base which may become tangled around the capstan or pinch roller.

MAINTENANCE
Head Cleaning
After ten hours of usage, tape coating material or dust may adhere to the
heads, causing deterioration of sound. Therefore, the parts depicted in the
illustration should be cleaned regularly. Use a cotton swab moistened with a
tape head cleaning solution (such as alcohol).
DEMAGNETIZATION
After 20-30 hours of use, enough residual magnetism will build up on the heads
to cause poor high frequency production. At this time you should use a
commercially available cassette tape-type head demagnetizer.
When cleaning the tape path or demagnetizing the heads, be sure to follow
carefully the instructions of the concerning materials such as cleaning fluid
or head demagnetizer.
