CAUTION

To maintain the cassette tape player in good condition, observe the following precautions.

(1) Do not use cassette tapes longer than C-90, otherwise sound quality and tape durability will be greatly diminished.
(2) Keep the cassette tape in its case to protect it from tape looseness and dust when it is not used.
(3) Keep the cassette tape away from direct sunlight, heat and magnetic fields such as the radio speakers.
(4) Before inserting the cassette, make sure that the label is adhered securely to the cassette.
(5) A loose tape should be corrected before use.
(6) Do not oil any part of the player and do not insert any object other than tape cassettes into the slot, or the tape player may be damaged. Also, avoid inserting your fingers into the slot. There is a danger of being burned by the hot internal parts.
