ENGLISH
Demagnetizing the Heads
• The heads become magnetized after they have
been used for an extended period of time or if they
are exposed to a magnetic object. This results in
noise or a loss of the treble sound.
• If the heads are magnetized, use a commercially
available cassette-type head demagnetizer to
demagnetize them.
