CLEANING THE TAPE
HANDLING PARTS
Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape’s coating can accumulate on the tape heads and other parts that the tape touches. This can greatly reduce the cassette player’s performance. To prevent noise and poor highfrequency response, clean the cassette player’s tape handling parts after every 20 hours of use. Your local
RadioShack store sells a complete line of cassette deck cleaning supplies.

THE FCC WANTS YOU
TO KNOW
Your CTR-110 might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your CTR-110 is causing the interference, turn off your CTR-110. If the interference goes away, your CTR-110 is causing it. Try to eliminate the interference by:
• Moving your CTR-110 away from the receiver
• Connecting your CTR-110 to an outlet that is on a different electrical circuit from the receiver
• Contacting your local RadioShack store for help
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your CTR-110.
