up any slack tape.

<
On top of heaters, exposed to direct sunlight or in any other
places with high temperatures.
<
Near speakers, on TV sets or amplifiers or where they would
be exposed to strong magnetic fields.
<
Where humidity is high and in dirty, dusty places.
<
Avoid dropping or subjecting cassettes to excessive shocks.
