Store cassettes in their protective cases and away from direct sunlight, heat, moisture and magnetic sources. ● Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to become deformed.

If used, the label could jam in the player. ● If a cassette has loose tape, insert a pencil through one of the cassette hubs and rewind the tape firmly AHA0522 Adjusting tone quality and sound balance To adjust BASS, TREB (treble), FADER, and BAL (balance) the control knobs must be released from their stowed positions.
