The broadcast signals are extremely strong, so the result is noise and sound breakup at the radio receiver. M Operating Tips for Cassette Tape Player Cleaning the cassette tape player The tape head, capstans, and pinch rollers will gather oxide residue from cassette tapes. This can cause weak or wavering sounds and damage to the cassette tapes and player. Use a good quality headcleaning tape or a liquid cleaner cassette tape to remove it. Should the unit not operate normally, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer. Never attempt to repair it or insert a screwdriver or anything else. Handling the cassette tape player The following precautions should be observed. • Do not spill any liquid on the audio system.
