Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
Your tapes will sound best if you clean your cassette
tape player from time to time. Use a non-abrasive
cleaning cassette instead of a music tape. Follow the
instructions on the cleaning cassette.
Store cassette tapes away from extreme heat or direct
sunlight. Protect the open ends from dirt or damage;
store them in their original cases or other protective
cases. Cassettes eventually wear out and you may need
to replace them
if they become noisy.

SAE low-30
As shown in the viscosity chart, SAE low-30 is best
for your vehicle. However, you can use SAE 5W-30
if
it’s going to be colder than 60 F ( 16 C) before
your next oil change. When it’s very cold, below
0 F (- 1 8 C), you should use SAE 5W-30.
These numbers on an oil container show its viscosity, or
thickness,
Do not use other viscosity oils such as SAE
1OW-40 or SAE 20W-50.
