Caring for your cassette player and tapes
For high performance from your cassette player and tapes:
Clean the tape head and other parts regularly.
A dirty tape head or tape path can decrease sound quality
and tangle your cassette tapes. The easiest way to clean
them is by using a cleaning tape.
Use high±quality cassettes:
Low±quality cassette tapes can cause many problems,
including poor sound, inconsistent playing speed, and
constant auto±reversing. They can also get stuck or
tangled in the cassette player.
Do not use a cassette if it has been damaged or tangled or
if its label is peeling off.
Do not leave a cassette in the player if you are not listening
to it, especially if it is hot outside.
Store cassettes in their cases and out of direct sunlight.
Avoid using cassettes with a total playing time longer than
100 minutes (50 minutes per side). The tape used in these
cassettes is thin and could get stuck or tangled in the
cassette player.Caring for your compact disc player and discs
Use only compact discs labeled as shown. Lexus does not
recommend using 8 cm (3.2 in.) discs.
Extremely high temperature can keep your compact disc
player from working. On hot days, use air conditioning to
cool the vehicle interior before you listen to a disc.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may make your compact
disc player skip.
If moisture gets into your compact disc player, you may not
hear any sound even though your compact disc player
appears to be working. Remove the magazine from the
player and wait until it dries.

Handle compact discs carefully, especially when you set
them into the magazine. Hold them on the edge and do not
bend them. Avoid getting fingerprints on them, particularly
on the shiny side.
Dirt, scrapes, warping, pin holes, or other disc damage
could cause the player to skip or to repeat a section of a
track. (To see a pin hole, hold the disc up to the light.)
To clean a compact disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint±free cloth
that has been dampened with water. Wipe in a straight line
from the center to the edge of the disc (not in a circle). Do
not use a conventional record cleaner or anti±static device.
