Before Use

Handling the unit

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and
packing materials come in handy. For
maximum protection, re-pack the unit as
it was originally packed at the factory.

To keep the surfaces clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as
insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not
leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of
time. They will leave marks on the
surface.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are
extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solu­tion. Do not use strong solvents such as
alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these
might damage the surface of the unit.

Notes on Discs

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the
disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that
fingerprints will not get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight
or sources of heat, or leave it in a
parked car exposed to direct sunlight,
as there may be a considerable temper­ature increase inside the car.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can
cause poor sound distortion. Before
playing, clean the disc with a clean
cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

Do not use strong solvents such as
alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or anti-static spray
intended for older vinyl records.
