PRECAUTIONS 1 . Always remove the cassettetape from the unit when not in use. 2. When replacing fuse(s), the replacement must be of the same amperage as shown on the fuse holder. If the fuse(s) blow more than once, carefully check all electrical connections for shorted circuitry. Have your car's voltage regulator checked also. Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself ; consult your nearest Harman Kardon Service Station for servicing. 3. In order to ensure proper performance, be sure the temperature in your car is within the range of 14° F (-10 °C) to 140° F (60°C) before turning your player on. Good air circulation is essential, especially in hot weather, to prevent internal heat build-up in the unit. 4. C-120 type cassette tapes are not recommended for use in automobile tape players. 5. Prevent any foreign objects from entering the cassette opening as the precisionmechanismand tape head could be damaged. 6. When your tape is not in use, store in the case provided by tape manufacturer. 7. To protect your cassette tapes, store them in a cool place away from dust, dirt and strong magnetic sources such as electric motors and TV sets. 8. Check and make sure any slack in the tape is taken up before inserting the tape into the unit. A loose tape could cause damage to the unit and the tape itself. Tighten the cassette by inserting a pencil or a similar instrument into the spindle hole and turn until al l the slack has been taken up. O 0 o Fig. 6 CLEANING It is recommended that the tape head be cleaned after every 10 hours of use. To do so, insert a special head cleaning cassette into the tape loading slot and allow it to run for a few minutes. 10
