Cassette Tapes

• For optimum sound quality and performance, we recommend you to replace the OGM and the ICM cassette tapes every six months and to re-record the outgoing message every three months supposing that the unit answers calls about ten times every day.
• Never place cassette tape near a magnetic source, such as a magnet or a TV set, because this will affect tape quality.

Endless Cassette Tape (KX-C030) for Outgoing Message

• A sensing foil (silver) is attached to the endless tape. If the sensing foil does not contact the sensing switch, the endless tape cannot stop automatically. Replace it with a new Panasonic endless cassette tape (KX-C030).
• Observe carefully that the tape and capstan are located as shown below, and insert the endless tape into the machine.

Cassette Tape (C-60) for Incoming Messages

• Should the Incoming Message cassette tape break or become worn, replace it with a high quality "NORMAL" tape. Use Panasonic (C-30, C-60, C-90), or other high quality tape. Metal or chrome tape cannot be used
• Slack in the tape can be tightened by rotating the tape ree with a pencil, as shown

- Do not use C-120 tape to prevent the tape from sticking.

The following endless cassette tapes can also be used with this unit:

●KX-C010 ●KX-C020

Maintenance

Because the head and capstan assemblies are in contact with the tape, dirt and residue from the tape can easily adhere to these parts, causing distortion. These parts should be cleaned periodically in the manner described below:

●Disconnect the telephone cord from the socket before cleaning.
- Clean the head surfaces, sensing switch, pressure rollers and capstans with a cotton swab.
If these surfaces are extremely dirty, dampen the cotton swab with alcohol.

Notes:

• Do not bring magnetic or metal objects, such as a screwdriver, near the head assemblies, as such objects could magnetize the heads.
• Do not oil any part of the unit.

Others

• If there is any trouble, disconnect the unit from the telephone line and connect a known working phone. If the known working phone operates properly, return your unit to your supplier for repair. If the known working phone does not operate properly, contact British Telecom.
• Do not use benzine, thinner, or similar solvents. Do not use abrasive powder to clean the cabinet. Wipe it with a soft cloth.
• Keep the unit away from heating appliances and electrical noise generating devices such as fluorescent lamps, motors and television. These noise sources can interfere with the performance of the EASA-PHONE.

• This unit and the cassette tapes should be kept free of dust, moisture, high temperature and vibration, and should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
  ●Never attempt to insert wires, pins, etc. into the vents or other holes of this unit.
