CAUTION:
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT,
AND INSERT FULLY.
ATTENTION:
This unit is designed to operate only on normal 120V 60Hz AC house current. Operating this unit from any other power
source may cause damage to unit and such damage is not covered by your warranty.
This unit has a polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow blade.
This plug will only fit into a matching polarizedAC outlet. This is a safety feature to reduce the possibility of electric shock. If
this plug will not fit in your AC outlet, you probably have an out dated non-polarized outlet. You should have your
outdated outlet changed by a qualified licensed electrician. Do not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to
make the plug fit into your outlet. This defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.

SPECIFICATIONS
HINTS FOR BEST RECEPTION
FM: The receiver has a built-in FM antenna (8) hanging from the rear cabinet. This wire should be completely
unraveled and extended for best reception.
AM : This unit is equipped with a built-in directional ferrite antenna. Rotate the unit to obtain the best reception.
Note:
Flip-up the clear stylus protector to expose the needle. Be sure that the tone arm
is detached from the tone arm rest (13) before operating.
1) Turn on the unit with the POWER Button (3). The POWER Indicator (4) will
light up.
2) Set the FUNCTION Selector (5) to the PHONO position.
3) Set the SPEED SELECTOR (14) to the proper position depending on
the record to be played. Three speeds (33 rpm, 45 rpm, 78 rpm)
can be selected. When 45 rpm is selected, use the 45 rpm
ADAPTOR (15).
4) Place the record on the platter (if required, use the 45 rpm adaptor)
5) Lift the tone arm (12) from the rest (13) and the platter will begin to rotate as you move it towards the record.
6) Place the needle of the tone arm (12) on the record at the desired position.
7) Adjust the VOLUME control (1) to the desired sound level.
8) At the end of the record, the platter will continue to rotate until the tone arm (12) is returned to the rest (13).
Note:
The turntable platter will not automatically stop when the record finishes playing. This is to allow extended play
records to play all the way through without prematurely stopping before the tone arm reachs the end of the record
(center area). Don't allow the record to continue turning for extended periods of time once the tone arm (12)
reaches the center of the record. This could prematurly wear out the stylus needle.
9)Stop the Turntable by pressing the POWER Button (3). Lift the tone arm (12) and return it to the rest (13).
IMPORTANT:
Do not turn or stop the Turntable platter manually. Moving or jarring the Turntable platter without securing
the Tone Arm Clamp could result in damage to the Tone Arm or Stylus.
