INSTALLATION

When installing the deck, avoid locations with high

temperatures or humidity, and make sure that

the deck receives adequate ventilation.

7 Do not install the deck in locations subject to di-

rect sunlight, or near a space heater or other heat-

ing device, as this may cause damage to the fin-

ish or internal parts.

7 Malfunctions may also result if the deck is in-

stalled in an excessively humid or dusty location.

Avoid installing the deck next to kitchen counters

or other locations subject to oily smoke or humid-

ity.

7 If the deck is placed directly on top of an amplifier,

it may pick up humming or other noise. Also, if

the amplifier generates a large amount of heat,

the deck may malfunction.

7 If the deck is located near a television set, it may

pick up inter ference noise, which will be recorded

as a whistling sound on the tape. If this happens,

move the deck further away from the television

set or turn the television set off when operating

the deck.

7 Do not place a cloth over the deck, or block the

ventilation slots in any way. The ventilation slots

on this deck are necessary to keep internal parts

cool. If they are blocked, the deck may malfunc-

tion.

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just

purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time

to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your

equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries

Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the

most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that

lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying

blaring or distortion--and, most importantly, without affecting your

sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level"

adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can

actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by

setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

÷ Start your volume control at a low setting.

÷ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it

comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

÷ Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage

or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

For A Lifetime

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a

lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud

noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer

and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics

Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive

noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

POWER-CORD CAUTION

Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord

when your hands are wet a this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of furni-

ture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power

cords should be routed in such a way that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause

a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your

nearest PIONEER authrized service center or your dealer for a replacement.

CLEANING THE HEADS, PINCH

ROLLERS AND CAPSTANS

The heads, pinch rollers and capstans are likely to

get dirty quite easily. If these parts, particularly the

heads, get dirty, the high frequency components of

a recording will not be reproduced and the stereo

balance will be impaired, resulting in a deterioration

of the playback sound. It is therefore recommended

that the head section be cleaned regularly.

1. Set the POWER switch to OFF.

2. Press the eject button to open the cassette door.

3. Dip a cleaning swab in cleaning fluid and use it to

wipe the heads, capstans and pinch rollers.

NOTE:

After cleaning the head section, do not load a tape until

the cleaning fluid has dried completely (about two or

three minutes).

MAINTENANCE

Capstan

CLEANING THE FRONT PANEL

Clean the deck regularly with a soft cloth. If the front

panel becomes soiled, moisten a soft cloth with a

weak solution of neutral detergent (diluted in five to

six parts water), wring the cloth well, and wipe the

panel clean. Never use volatile cleaners like thinners,

benzine or alcohol because they will damage the

panel finish.

DEMAGNETIZING THE HEADS

After using the cassette deck for a period of time, the

heads will become magnetized. The same effect will

occur if a magnetized screwdriver, magnet or other

magnetized object is brought too

close to the

heads. When the heads become magnetized, high-

frequency sounds will be lost during recording or

playback, and interference noise may also occur. The

heads should be regularly demagnetized with a head

demagnetizer, which can be purchased at most

audio stores.

When demagnetizing the heads, make sure that the

POWER switch of the cassette deck is set to ON.

However, be sure to turn down the amplifier's

volume control to its lower position, and disconnect

any headphones from their headphones jack. For

detailed instructions, refer to the operating

instructions of the head demagnetizer.
