On heat buildup
• Heat buildup on the unit during operation is
normal and is not cause for alarm.
• Do not touch the cabinet if it has been used
continuously at a high volume because the
cabinet may have become hot.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.
On the speaker system
This speaker system is not magnetically
shielded, and the picture on nearby TV sets
may become magnetically distorted. In this
situation, turn off the TV, wait 15 to 30
minutes, and turn it back on. If there is no
improvement, move the speakers far away
from the TV.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: If you leave a still video image or
on-screen display image displayed on your TV
for an extended period of time via this system,
you risk permanent damage to your TV screen.
Projection TVs are especially susceptible to
this.
Cleaning the cabinet
Clean this system with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder, or solvent, such as thinner, benzine, or
alcohol.
To prevent a tape from being
accidentally recorded over
Break off the cassette’s overwrite protection
tab from side A or B as illustrated.
Break off the
cassette tab
To later reuse the tape for recording, cover the
broken tab with adhesive tape.
About a tape longer than 90 minutes
The use of the tape with more than 90 minutes
of play time is not recommended except for
long, continuous recording or playback.
Cleaning the tape heads
Use dry- or wet-type cleaning cassette
(available separately) after every 10 hours of
use, before you start an important recording, or
after playing an old tape. Failure to clean the
tape heads can cause degraded sound quality or
an inability of the unit to record or play tapes.
For details, refer to the instructions of the
cleaning cassette.
Demagnetizing the tape heads
Use a demagnetizing cassette (available
separately) after every 20 to 30 hours of
use. Failure to demagnetize the tape heads
can cause an increase in noise, a loss of
high frequency sound, and an inability to
completely erase tapes. For details, refer to the
instructions of the demagnetizing cassette.
