CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RCA SCT-560 High-Speed Dubbing Stereo Cassette
Deck is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.
These suggestions will help you care for the cassette deck
so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the cassette deck dry. If it gets wet, wipe it
dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals
that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Handle the cassette deck gently and carefully.
Dropping it can damage the circuit boards and
case and can cause the cassette deck to work
improperly.
Use and store the cassette deck only in normal
temperature environments. Temperature
extremes can shorten the life of electronic
devices and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the cassette deck away from dust and dirt,
which can cause premature wear of parts.
Wipe the cassette deck with a damp cloth
occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use
harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the cassette deck.
Modifying or tampering with the cassette deck’s internal
parts can cause a malfunction and might invalidate your
cassette deck’s warranty and void your FCC authorization
to operate it. If your cassette deck is not operating as it
should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for
assistance.
Cleaning the Tape-Handling Parts
Clean the tape-handling parts after about every 20 hours
of use. Use a cotton swab dipped in tape head cleaning
solution or denatured alcohol to gently clean the parts
shown in the illustration.
