Cassette Player Cleaning
Cassette Player Cleaning
1. Apply isopropyl alcohol to the cleaning cassette and insert it into the cassette player and run it for approximately 30 seconds.
NOTE:
- Advise the customer of the need for regular tape head cleaning. It is recommended that the tape heads are cleaned after every 15 hours of play.
- The audio unit incorporates a reminder facility to indicate when 15 hours of tape play has occurred. For more detail please refer to the audio handbook.
- Question the customer on the type of tapes that are normally used. Low quality tapes can not only damage the cassette player heads, the plastic shells may twist and jam in the deck. Loose cassette labels may also become detached in the deck and jam the decks operation. Jaguar Audio units use high quality cassette decks which have precision moving parts, and need to be operated with care.
- Jaguar cars only recommends the use of wet type cleaning tapes.
- Make sure that the cleaning cassette is used prior to any assessment of tape audio quality.
