CLEANING THE TAPE-HANDLING
PARTS
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.
1. Remove the batteries and disconnect any other power
source.
2. Open the cassette compartment door.
3. Press
PLAY
to expose the tape-handling parts.
4. Use a cotton swab dipped in denatured alcohol or tape
head cleaning solution to clean the tape guides, play
head, pinch roller, and capstan.
Modifying or tampering with the SCP-105’s internal compo-
nents can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its war-
ranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your
SCP-105 is not performing as it should, take it to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.
