You
may
prefer
to
use
a
non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner. This
type
of
cleaner uses
a
fabric belt to clean
the
tape head.
This
type of cleaner
cassette will not
cause
an error, but
it
may
not
clean
the
tape player as
thoroughly
as
the
scrubbing type cleaner.
A
scrubbing action cleaner cassette is available through your retailer
(SPO
12344600).
Cassettes
are subject to wear and
the
sound quality may degrade over time.
Always verify that the cassette tape
is
in good condition and the tape player
is
clean before obtaining service on your tape player.
NOTICE:
Cassette
tape
adapter
kits
for
portable
CD
players
will
not
work
in
your
cassette
player.
These
adapters
will
cause
the
radio
to
display
an
error
and
the
adapter
cassette
will
be
ejected.
Care
of
Compact
Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them
in
their original cases
or
other
protective
cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. If
the
surface
of
a
disc
is
soiled, dampen a
clean, soft cloth
in
a
mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from
the
center to the edge.
Be sure never
to
touch the signal surface when handling discs. Pick up discs
by grasping the outer edges
or
the edge
of
the hole and the outer edge.
Antenna
Care
The
fixed mast antenna can withstand most car washes without being
damaged. If the mast should ever become slightly bent,
you
can straighten it
out by hand. If the mast
is
badly bent,
as it might be
by vandals,
you
should
replace
it.
Check every once in a while
to
be
sure
the
mast
is
still tightened
to
the
fender.
