Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can result in reduced sound
quality, ruined cassettes, or a damaged player mechanism. Cassette tapes
should be stored in their plastic cases away from contaminants, direct
sunlight, and extreme heat. If they aren’t, they may not operate properly or
cause failure
of the tape player.
As regular maintenance, your tape player should be cleaned each month or
after every
15 hours of use. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a
known good cassette to see
if the tape or the tape player is at fault. If this
other cassette has
no improvement in sound quality, clean the tape player.
Clean your tape player
with a wiping-action,
non-abrasive cleaning
cassette, and follow
the directions
provided with it.
Cassettes are subject to wear and
the sound quality may degrade over time.
Always make sure that the cassette tape is in
good condition before you
have your tape player serviced.
Fixed Mast Antenna
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.
