rotating the platter continuously while in Stop, will eventually cause a fault condition. Fault
conditions are indicated by blinking all the switches. To recover from a fault, press and hold
the Stop and 33 RPM buttons for 10 seconds.
c. If you wipe your records clean prior to playing them, as many of us do, do so with the
platter stopped. If the platter is turning while using a record cleaner and you force the
platter to stop rotating, you will eventually cause a fault condition. Fault conditions are
indicated by blinking all the switches. To recover from a fault, press and hold the Stop and
33 RPM buttons for 10 seconds.
d. If your Classic Direct Drive turntable is not in use for a long period of time, please
disconnect the power supply from the mains supply.
e. Please take care not to damage the power cord or power supply. Any damage should be
repaired by authorized personnel only. A damaged power cord must be replaced
immediately!
f. Once every year, or if you notice speed variations, you should lubricate the spindle
bearing of the turntable platter with the recommended oil. To do so, place 2 drops of the oil
onto the holes at the top center of the platter.
g. Don’t use harsh cleaning fluids on the Classic Direct Drive turntable. For most cleaning
and dust removal a soft cotton cloth is all that is needed. A spray of window cleaner on a
soft cotton cloth will clean everything else. Under no circumstances use alcohol based or
other solvent cleaners, as these could cause damage to painted surfaces!
h. Should you need to transport or ship your turntable, it advisable to use the original
packing materials. Please, always remove the turntable assembly from the plinth before
shipping, otherwise serious damage can occur!
i. Fault conditions are indicated by blinking all the switches. To recover from a fault, press
and hold the Stop and 33 RPM buttons for 10 seconds. If this does not clear the fault, turn
the power switch Off, wait 30 seconds and turn power the power switch On. If this does not
clear the fault, contact your local VPI distributor for service.
