Prolonged operation will cause contamination of the tape head. To result in
the best possible recording and playback, we recommend cleaning the tape
head periodically (after a 10-hour run), using the Sony NTC-10CL cleaning
cassette (supplied).
If the recorder was not used for a long time, clean the tape head before
operation.
Insert the cleaning cassette as you do with an NT cassette tape.
Set DIR MODE to .
Press . About 15 seconds later, press .
Remove the cleaning cassette without rewinding it.
Proceed with recording and playback with a regular NT cassette tape to check
the sound quality.
• The cleaning cassette cannot be used for recording and playback.
• Do not clean the tape head with the cleaning cassette more than five times
continuously.
Cleaning the tape head continuously for too long a period of time may
cause wear to the tape head.
• Do not rewind the cleaning cassette each time you use it. When the
cleaning cassette tape is taken up completely, turn it over and use the other
side.
Clean the cabinet, panels, and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened
with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
The NT cassette tape has a tape shield to prevent dust from entering the tape.
The tape shield opens and closes automatically when inserted and removed.
Do not force the tape shield open or touch the tape inside.
