DEW FORMATION
Dew is the term used for the formation of moisture on the
very important transport section such as the head and the
capstan when the deck is used in places where the humidity
is high, subjected to sudden
changes
in temperature
or
moved from a cold place to a warm one. If the deck is used
when dew is present, the tape will stick to the head and be
ruined or tape will not be transport properly. In such cases,
do not use the deck for approximately one hour until the
deck is acclimatized.
PLACEMENT
If the deck, tuner and amplifier are placed on top of each
other, humming noise may result during playback. Also beat
noise
may
result during
recording
of AM
broadcasts.
In
such cases, change the position of the deck. Akai recom-
mends that a space the size of an amplifier be placed be-
tween the deck and the tuner or the amplifier.
This equipment confirms to No. 76/889/EEC Standard.
