guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
· Reorient or relocate the equipment and/or the receiving
antenna.
· Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
· Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
· Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.

Handling Records
Before Use
Read this before operation
< As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave
sufficient space around the unit for ventilation.
< The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as
printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding this
matter, consult an electrician.
< Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat,
cold or moisture.
< Do not place the unit on an amplifier/receiver or any other
electronic device that generates heat.
< Do not open the sealed cabinet as this might result in damage
to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should
get into the set, contact your dealer or service agency.
< When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always
pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.
< Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this
might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth or a cleaner
specifically formulated for plastics.
< Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING PLAYBACK
Do NOT lift or move the unit during playback. Doing so may
damage the record.
WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT
When changing places of installation or packing the unit for
moving, be sure to remove the record. Moving this unit with
the record loaded may result in damage to this unit. If the unit
is to be packed and moved a large distance, it is also advisable
to tighten the turntable transport locking screw. See Page ??
for instructions.
Beware of condensation
When the unit (or a record) is moved from a cold to a warm
place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a
danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on
the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic or
impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for
one or two hours with the power turned on. The unit will
stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.
Maintenance
Always keep the turntable clean.
If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or
use diluted mild liquid soap. Be sure to remove any excess
completely. Do not use thinner, benzine or alcohol as they may
damage the surface of the unit. Allow the surface of the unit to
dry completely before using
< Keep your records away from dust. Keep them in a cool, dry
place.
< To avoid dust and scratches, keep records in their sleeves and
jackets when not in use.
< Store records upright on their edges. Records stored
horizontally will eventually bend and warp.
< Do not expose records to direct sunlight or high humidity and
temperature. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp
the record.
< Do not store your records in the trunk of your car. The
temperatures in a closed trunk can ruin your collection.
< Store records in an area with stable temperature and humidity.
< Should the record become dirty, gently wipe the surface in a
circular motion, using a soft anti-static cloth.
Many commercial record cleaning systems are available from
many retailers or on-line. TEAC does not endorse any specific
product but, depending on the condition of your record
collection, it may be advisable to look into one of these
systems. Clean records protect your stylus from undue wear.
< Do not touch grooves. Handle records by the edges or the
label only, with clean hands. Skin oils from even clean hands
can leave a residue on the record surface that will gradually
deteriorate the quality of your record.
