Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts. Handle the cassette player carefully. Dropping it can damage the circuit boards and can cause it to work improperly. Keep the cassette player away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts. Wipe the cassette player with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean it. Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type. Always remove old or weak batteries. They can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic circuits. Modifying or tampering with the cassette player's internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty. If your cassette player is not performing as it should take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance (br/all-02/28/95)
