Cleaning the heads and tape path

Clean the heads and tape path of the tape deck after
every 10 hours of operation to guard against:
• low-quality sound
• a decrease in sound level
• excessive wow or flutter
• sound dropout
• incomplete erasure
• impairment of recording function
To ensure better recording, we recommend that you
clean the heads and tape path before every recording.
