HINTS FOR BEST RECEPTION 
FM: 

The receiver has a built-in FM ANTENNA (8) hanging from the rear cabinet. This wire should 
be completely unraveled and extended for best reception. 

AM:

  This unit is equipped with a built-in directional ferrite antenna. Rotate the unit to obtain the best 

reception. 

 

PHONO OPERATION 

Note: 

Flip-up the clear stylus protector to expose the needle. Be sure that the TONE 
ARM is detached from the TONE ARM REST (13) before operating. 
 
 
1.  Turn on the unit with the POWER BUTTON (3). The POWER 

INDICATOR (4) will light up.   

2.  Set the FUNCTION SELECTOR (5) to the PHONO position. 
3.  Set the SPEED SELECTOR (14) to the proper position depending on the record to be played. 

Three speeds (33 rpm, 45 rpm, 78 rpm) can be selected. When 45 rpm is selected, use the 45 
rpm    ADAPTOR (15). 

4.  Place the record on the platter (if required, use the 45 rpm adaptor) 
5.  Lift the TONE ARM (12) from the REST (13) and the platter will begin to rotate as you move it 

towards the record. 

6.  Place the needle of the TONE ARM (12) on the record at the desired position. 
7.  Adjust the VOLUME CONTROL (1) to the desired sound level. 
8.  At the end of the record, the platter will continue to rotate until the TONE ARM (12) is returned to 

the REST (13). 

 

Note:

 The turntable platter will not automatically stop when the record finishes playing. This is to 

allow extended play records to play all the way through without prematurely stopping before the 
TONE ARM(12) reaches the end of the record (center area).Don't allow the record to continue 
turning for extended periods of time once the TONE ARM (12) reaches the center of the record. 
This could prematurely wear out the stylus needle. 

9.  Stop the Turntable by pressing the POWER BUTTON (3). Lift the TONE ARM (12) and return it 

to the REST (13).
