Maintenance and Proper Handling

Compact Disc Handling

• Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side facing upward (compact discs can be played/recorded only on one side).
• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc upward, holding it carefully by its edges.
• To clean a disc, wipe the surface from the center hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft, dry cloth. Never use such chemicals as record spray, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or thinner to clean discs; they will irreparably damage the disc's plastic surface.
• Discs should be returned to their cases after use to protect from dust and scratches.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperature for extended periods of time.
• Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs are not recommended, as the label side may become sticky and damage the unit.
• Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write information on the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as doing so may damage the recorded side.
• Do not use irregularly-shaped CDs (octagonal, heart shaped, business card size, etc), as they will damage the unit.
• Read all precautions supplied with any CD-R or CD-RW disc.
• Never handle a disc with dirty fingers.
• Never insert a disc that has a crack on the surface.

Handling Vinyl Records

• Do not touch the record's grooves. Only handle records by the edges or the label with clean hands. Touching the record surface will cause your record's quality to deteriorate.
• To clean a record, use a soft anti-static cloth to gently wipe the record surface.
• Keep records in their protective sleeves when not in use.
• Always store records upright on their edges.
• Avoid placing records in direct sunlight, close to a heat source (radiators, stoves, etc.), or in a location subject to vibration, excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.

General Care

• When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull directly on the plug. Never pull the cord.
• To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it, and do not forget to close the disc tray.
• Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. For cleaning, only use a clean, dry cloth.
• In order to shut off the power to this product completely, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Be sure to unplug the unit if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time.

How to Replace the Turntable Stylus (ITNP-LC1)

The stylus should last about 50 hours under normal use. However, it is recommended that the stylus be replaced as soon as you notice a change in sound quality. Prolonged use of a worn-out stylus may damage the record. The highest speed of 78 RPM records would wear out the stylus more quickly.

Removing the old stylus:

1. Set a screwdriver at the tip of the stylus and push downward (A).
2. Remove the stylus by pulling it simultaneously downward and forward.

Installing a new stylus:

1. Hold the front tip of the stylus and insert its rear edge (B) first.
2. Push the stylus upwards (C) until the tip locks into place.

Caution: Do not bend the stylus. Do not touch the needle to avoid injury your hand. Turn off the unit's power before you replace the stylus. Keep out of reach of children.
