Attaching the dust cover Dust cover Main unit Dust cover Opening and closing the dust cover Hinge Open 1 Insert the hinges completely into the hinge holders at the left and right ends of the back of the main unit. 2 Align the tops of the hinges with the dust cover hinge holders and insert them. oo Close the dust cover during playback. Doing so prevents stylus skipping caused by unintended contact and protects the stylus tip from outside sound pressure. oo Do not open or close it when a record is playing. Doing so could, for example, cause the stylus to skip. oo Keep it closed whenever possible to keep dust out. Opening Hold the front edge of the dust cover and gently lift it open completely until it stops. The dust cover will stay open in this position. Closing Gently lower the dust cover until it is closed. VV Be careful not to pinch your fingers, for example, when opening and closing the dust cover. Removing the dust cover Hold both edges of the dust cover and lift it slowly to remove it along with the hinges from the unit. Then, remove the hinges from the dust cover. Handling records Holding records When holding a record or removing it from its sleeve, avoid touching the grooves by holding the record by its label and edge with one hand or by holding it by its edge with both hands. Label Grooves Outer edge Cleaning oo Fingerprints and dust on a record can cause noise and the sound to skip, as well as damage the record itself and the stylus. Use a commercially available record cleaner to clean records. Do not use thinner or anything other than a record cleaner. Such chemicals could harm the surface of the record. oo When using a record cleaner, wipe the surface of the record in a circular motion, following the grooves. Precautions oo Do not leave records in places that are exposed to direct sunlight or are very hot or very humid. Leaving a record in such a condition for a long time could result in warping, mold growth or other damage. oo Do not stack multiple records or place heavy objects on top of them. Do not leave records at an angle for long amounts of time, either. Doing so could result in warping or other damage. oo Do not allow hard objects to directly touch the audio grooves. Doing so could cause scratches. oo After you finish playing a record, always put it back into its sleeve for storage. Leaving a record unprotected could result in warping or scratching. oo Do not use cracked records. 7
