Cleaning the heads and tape path
Clean the heads and tape path of the tape deck after
every 10 hours of operation to guard against:
low-quality sound
a decrease in sound level
excessive wow or flutter
sound dropout
incomplete erasure
impairment of recording function
To ensure better recording, we recommend that you
clean the heads and tape path before every recording.
1 Press § to open the cassette holder. Grasp the
front cover on both sides and gently lift to remove
it.
2 With the tape deck turned off, wipe the heads, the
pinch rollers and the capstans with a cotton swab
slightly moistened with alcohol or a commercially
available cleaning fluid for tape decks.
3 Replace the front cover.
