Notes about record styluses
o
Record styluses are precision parts, so handle them
carefully to avoid bending or damaging their tips. If
a stylus becomes bent or damaged, it might not be
able to follow the audio groove precisely and could
damage records or cause other malfunction.
o
If a stylus becomes dirty, use a commercially avail-
able stylus cleaner or similar product to clean it.
o
Do not rub the stylus tip forcefully with anything
hard. Do not wipe the stylus with thinner or other
chemicals. Doing so could harm it.
Replacing the stylus
The included cartridge is an Audio-Technica AT95E.
Purchase a replacement stylus for the AT95E cartridge
at the retailer where you purchased this unit, for
example.
Follow the replacement instructions in the manual of
the replacement stylus.
CAUTION
o
Since loud noises could suddenly occur, put the unit
into standby before changing the stylus.
o
Be careful not to hurt your hand or the equipment.
o
Be careful not to allow small children to accidentally
swallow styluses.
