If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a known good cassette to see of it is the tape or the tape player or fault. If this other cassette has no improvement in sound quality, clean the tape player. The recommended cleaning method for your cassette tape player is the use of a scrubbing action, non-abrasive cleaning cassette with pads which scrub the tape head as the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. The recommended cleaning cassette is available through your dealer. When cleaning the cassette tape player with the recommended non-abrasive cleaning cassette, it is possible that the cassette may eject, because the cut tape detection feature on your radio may recognize it as a broken tape. To prevent the cleaning cassette from being ejected, use the following steps: 1. Turn the ignition to ON or ACC. 2. Turn the radio off. 9. Cassette Tape Messages CHECK TAPE If this message appears on the radio display, the tape won't play because of one of the following errors. o The tape is tight and the player can't turn the tape hubs. Remove the tape. Hold the tape with the open end down and try to turn the right hub counterclockwise with a pencil. Turn the tape over and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily, your tape may be damaged and should not be used in the player. Try a new tape to make sure your player is working properly. 10. Care of Your Cassette Tape Player A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause reduced sound quality, reined cassettes or a damaged mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored in their case away from contaminants, direct sunlight and extreme heat. If they aren't they may not operate properly or may cause failure of the tape player.
