BATTERY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO YOUR  
SET, READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.  
1. Use only the type and size of batteries mentioned in the operating instructions  
booklet (batteries are not included with this set, please buy the proper batteries).  
2. Do not dispose the batteries into a fire. The cells may explode. Check with local  
codes for possible special disposal instructions.  
3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may  
cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.  
4. Be careful when handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting  
materials such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may over  
heat and cause burns.  
5. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. The batteries may leak  
corrosive electrolyte or explode.  
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with this product by  
heating them. Sudden release of the battery electrolyte may cause burns or  
irritation to eyes or skin.  
7. All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh and discharged  
batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the batteries.  
8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity (  
and  
) or  
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of some or all of the batteries may  
result in battery electrolyte leakage or explosion.  
9. Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be used for a long  
period of time (several months or more) since during the period the batteries could  
leak, damaging the product.  
10. Discard weak or dead batteries as soon as possible since they are more likely to  
leak in the product. Batteries should be replaced (depending on the product) when  
the display gets dim or if the Low Battery Indicator shows or if the sound gets  
distorted.  
11. Do not store this product in high temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in a  
freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of extending shelf life should be protected  
from condensation during storage and defrosting. Batteries should be stabilized at  
room temperature prior to use after cold storage.  
12. If this product does not operate normally, see TROUBLE SHOOTING in this manual.  
If you can’t resolve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the LENOXX  
WARRANTY INFORMATION. Opening or removing covers may expose you to  
dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock  
when the appliance is subsequently used.  
13. If liquid leaks from the batteries, carefully wipe this liquid. Do not allow it to touch your  
skin, and discard the leaking batteries.  
14. Do not mix batteries (OLD and NEW or CARBON and ALKALINE, etc.).  
15. The use of rechargeable batteries is not recommended for this set because their  
voltage and life is lower than standard batteries.  
16. Installation of batteries should be done by an adult only.

PRECAUTIONS  
On Safety  
Notes on Cassette  
Break off the cassette tab from side A or  
B to prevent accidental recording. If you  
want to reuse the tape for recording,  
cover the broken tab with adhesive tape.  
Should any solid object or liquid fall  
into the set, disconnect the power, and  
have it checked by qualified personnel  
before operating it any further.  
Side A  
On Placement  
Do not leave the set in a location  
near heat source, or in a place subject  
to direct sunlight, excessive dust or  
mechanical shock.  
Do not place the set on an inclined  
or unstable place.  
Tab for side A  
Tab for side B  
Do not place anything within 1 inch of  
the back of the cabinet. The ventilation  
holes must be unobstructed for the  
set to operate properly and prolong  
the life of its components.  
To record on a tape with its tab broken  
off, cover the respective tab hole for side  
A or B with adhesive tape.  
Use of a cassette with more than 90

in the car where the set will not be  
subjected to the direct rays of the sun.

or tangling, you should check that there  
are no loose layers of tape visible  
through the cassette center window. If  
any, tighten these loose layers of tape  
using a pencil before inserting the  
cassette into the set.  
On Power Sources  
For battery operation, use 4 size “C”  
batteries. We recommend alkaline  
batteries for longer life.  
When the batteries are not to be used,  
remove them to avoid damage that can  
be caused by battery leakage or  
corrosion.  
The nameplate indicating operating  
voltage, power consumption, etc. is  
located at the back of the set.

MAINTENANCE  
Cleaning the Tape Heads  
Wipe the heads, the pinch roller and the capstan with a cleaning swab slightly moistened  
with cleaning fluid or alcohol after every 10 hours of operation for optimum playback  
and recording quality.  
After cleaning, insert a tape when the areas cleaned are completely dry.  
NOTE: In order to see and  
clean the head, you  
may have to press  
PLAY first.  
Notes for Storing Cassette Tapes  
1. Do not put a tape near a magnetic field, such as a TV, or speaker. Magnetic  
fields may reduce the tape sensitivity or even erase the recording.  
2. Do not store tape for any length of time in a hot, moist or dusty place.  
Cleaning the Cabinet  
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild  
detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent,  
such as alcohol or benzine.
