Radio Reception:
For best radio reception and to avoid interference, follow these tips:
• Move Street Rocker away from sources that can cause radio frequency interference, such as
laptop power supplies, flat screen TVs, electric blankets, external hard drives, light dimmers,
walls, and windows.
• Try listening to the radio at a park or other open outdoor space, away from tall buildings.
• Power Street Rocker with quality, new alkaline batteries instead of a power cable.
Cassette Care
To avoid tape jamming, tape tangling, or playback issues, please follow these tips:
• Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the cassette center window. If there
are, manually wind up loose tape using a pencil or hexagonal barrelled ballpoint pen.
Note: If the cassette feels tight when manually winding, the tape may be jamming from ridges
formed in the winding of the tape (visible through the center window). These may be removed, in
most cases, by fast forwarding the cassette to the end, and then rewinding it to the beginning.
• When recording, use new high-quality, brand name tapes.
• Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, fluorescent lights, dust, or oils.
• Do not touch the surface of the tape.
• Before storing tapes, rewind or fast forward them to the end of a side.
• Store tapes in a dry, temperate environment.
Tape Head Cleaning
For continued high performance from Street Rocker, periodically clean the head, pinch roller, and
capstan every 10-20 hours of operation.
To clean the tape deck:
1. Power off Street Rocker.
2. Press the Stop/Eject button to open the cassette holder.
3. Remove any tape in the deck.
4. Moisten a new cotton swab with isopropyl alcohol (70-80%).
5. Carefully rub the face of each head, pinch roller, and capstan with the moistened cotton swab.
6. Let the cassette holder dry for 5-10 minutes before putting a tape back in it.
