HANDLING RECORDS
Never touch the playback side of the record. Hold the record by
the edge, so as not to leave fingerprints on the surface.
When your listening is over, take care to put the record in its
pocket.
STORING RECORDS
After playback, put the disc in its pocket. Do not expose the
records directly to direct sunlight or heat and never leave them
in a car parked in the sun.
Do not stack multiple records or place heavy objects on them.
The inclined position is also not recommended as it may result
in warping, mold growth or other damage.
Pay special attention to prevent the record from being in contact
with an object that damages the grooves.
CLEANING THE RECORDS
Fingerprints and dust on a record may cause noise or sound
jumps and may damage the record itself or the stylus of the
cartridge.
Use a commercial record cleaner. Do not use thinner as
chemicals may damage the surface of the record.
CLEANING THE STYLUS
If the stylus of the cartridge is bent or damaged, it may damage
your record or cause a dysfunction.
Handle the tone arm holding the headshell carefully and do not
touch the stylus of the cartridge with your hand.
Use a commercially available cleaner to make sure you do not
damage the stylus.
REPLACING THE CARTRIDGE / STYLUS
When the end of the stylus is worn, the sound quality
deteriorates. The life of a stylus is about 300 hours.
Please use an Audio-Technica AT-3600 L replacement cartridge.
WARNING
Before changing the cartridge, make sure the turntable is
disconnected from the current to prevent loud noises and
sudden occur.
Note: Bent stylus due to, for example, insufficient care provided
by the user are not covered by the warranty.

rpm) corresponding to the record speed you are listening to.
Jumps during playback
- Make sure the record is not subject to vibration or external
shocks from external sources.
