Turning Off Your Turntable

Your Smart Turntable is powered by a little 
computer called a Raspberry Pi. Just like a regular 
computer, it’s never a good idea to suddenly 
turn off it’s power without shutting it down.

Tap once on the display to bring
up the main menu.

1

Select ‘Shut Down’ from the 
list of options.

2

Select ‘Yes’ when the Turntable
asks if you are sure you wish to 
shut down.

3

After about 5-10 seconds, the 
display will be dark and it will
be safe to use the main power
switch to turn off the device
completely.

4

Don’t just use the main power

switch to turn off your Turntable.

Always shut it down properly first. 

Music can still be played over Bluetooth after the Shut Down button is pressed and the 
Raspberry Pi has turned off. The Bluetooth components and speakers are a separate 
system from the Raspberry Pi and they don’t need to be shut down. As long as the Pi 
has shut down and the display is dark, it is safe to switch off, even if music is still playing.
