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.

o

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.

 

o

When using a record cleaner, wipe the surface of the 
record in a circular motion, following the grooves.

 

o

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 or other damage.

 

o

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.

 

o

Do not allow hard objects to directly touch the audio 
grooves. Doing so could cause scratches.

 

o

After you finish playing a record, always put it back 
into its sleeve for storage.  Leaving a record unpro-
tected could result in warping or scratching.

 

o

Do not use cracked records.

Place the included rubber mat, which protects the turn-
table, on the turntable. 

 

o

The rubber mat has top and bottom sides. Place 
the side with radiating lines face up as shown in the 
illustration.
