Enjoyyourvinylrecordsasif they were new again! Klaudio’sKD-CLN-LP200brings
an unrivaled 200 Watts of ultrasonic cleaning power to your LP collection. Using
patent-pending technology, the toughest grime and dust is easily removed without
the risk of physical scrubbers or need for detergent. Drying is also handled safely
with blowers. Simply fill with plain water and insert your phonograph record-- the
rest is automated.
Ultrasonic transducers are placed perpendicular to the disc for maximum cleaning
effect. Klaudio’s technology allows powerful waves to remove debris without dam-
aging the disc, and special dampening minimizes vibration and noise. The entire
washing and drying process can be adjusted from 3 to 9 minutes. Cleaning status
is conveniently displayed through an LED progress bar.

Chapter 2Setup
Setup
Before powering-on the system, the “AC Power Select” voltage switch must be set
for your local voltage.
Voltage Configuration
CAUTION: Before powering-on the
system, the “AC POWER SELECT”
switch must be set for your local
voltage. The incorrect setting can
damage the product and is not
covered by the product warranty.
!
On the rear of the unit, use a small flat-head screwdriver to adjust the AC voltage
switch (115V/60Hz or 230V/50Hz). The incorrect setting can permanently damage
the ultrasonic transducers. This condition is not covered by the product warranty.
Filling the Reservoir
Use only household tap water or distilled water
to fill the reservoir. Detergents or additives are
notrecommendedand may reactwithmaterials
used in the system.
Using a funnel (one is included), SLOWLY add
water through the top fill port. The reservoir
requires approximately 2.5 liters or 0.66 gal-
lons of water.
Stop filling once the water level reaches the “Max Fill
Level” marked on the reservoir. There will be a delay
between pouring and an increase in the reservoir fill
line. Go slowly to avoid overfilling.

Adjusting Washing and Drying Settings
Setup
Connecting the Power Cable
Once the reservoir is filled with water,
connect the mainAC power cable to the
back of the unit. Plug the pronged end
into an AC outlet.
Turn on the main front power switch. It will illuminate
when switched on.
The LED display bar will show the current status and cleaning progress.
PRIMING The pump is filling the upper wash basin from the reservoir.
Washing Cycle
0% 25% 50% 75% 100% Indicates the current washing
progress based on the preset
time.
DRAINING The upper wash basin is emptying back into the reservoir.
Drying Cycle
0% 25% 50% 75% 100% Indicates the current drying
progress based on the preset
time.
Once finished, the “Completed” green LED will illuminate. The
system will also emit an audio chime every few minutes until the
disc has been removed. Remove the disc and insert another to
restart the cleaning cycle.
COMPLETED
“WASHING TIME” adjusts the ultrasonic washing time
from 1-5 minutes. Longer cleaning times are intended for
especially difficult-to-clean records. It is suggested to start
with a short time period and increase if needed.
“DRYING TIME” adjusts the air blower drying time from
2-4 minutes. This setting depends on room temperature
and humidity.
Configure the setting knobs as desired. This can be done at any time before or
during the cleaning operation:
This toggle switch selects between “DRY ONLY” and “WASH &
DRY”. If “WASH & DRY” is selected, the drying cycle will begin
immediately after the washing cycle has completed.

Operation
Loading a Record
Operation
After initial setup and configuration, there’s only one step to operation. Carefully
place an LP vinyl record with a diameter of between 296-304mm (11.65-12in) into
the top loading slot. When loading, the disc should be kept vertical (perpendicular
to the floor).
Thecleaning/dryingprocesswillautomatically start. Once finished, the “Completed”
green LED will illuminate. Insert a new disc to start again.
Draining and Maintenance
It’s recommended to refresh the system with
clean water periodically, about every 1-4
weeks, depending on usage.
The unit should also be drained before being
transported or sitting idle for long periods of
time.DISCONNECTTHEACPOWERCABLE
BEFORE DRAINING!
To avoid scratches, keep disc
perpendicular to the floor when inserting.

Todrain,push theincludedPVCtubing onto
thebarbedfittingmarked “Drain” and screw
on the knurled compression ring. Position
theoppositeendofthistubing into a sink or
large container to capture the older water.
Draining is made easier by
placing the cleaning unit on a
table with the tubing lowered
into a bucket.
To release water from the reservoir, turn
the drain valve knob on the side of the
unit to “Open”.

Operation
Accessing the Reservoir
If necessary, the reservoir can be accessed for cleaning or thorough drying. Before
opening the reservoir, be sure it’s completely empty.
See“Drainingand Maintenance” whichdescribesthis process. Whiledraining,gently
tilt the system towards the drain fitting to fully evacuate water from the reservoir.
Once the reservoir is completely empty, unscrew the rear access cap. If the unit
will be shipped or transported, paper towels can be placed inside the reservoir to
absorb residual water (along with replacing the access cap).

User Manual
1. The system does not power on, begin the cleaning cycle, or the LED progress
bar flashes when a disc is inserted.
Check that the power cord is connected between the unit and an AC wall
outlet. Confirm the voltage switch is properly set on the rear of the unit (See
“Voltage Configuration”). Be sure the diameter of the LP record is between
296-304 millimeters (11.65-12.00 inches); other sizes will not be detected.
Make sure the “Completed” green LED light is illuminated before inserting a
record. If not, try power cycling the unit (turning off/on using the front power
switch), then removing and reinserting the disc.
3. Water is dripping from the unit.
The cleaning system must remain level at all times when filled with water.
Checkthatthedrainvalve isclosed(See“DrainingandMaintenance”)andthat
the reservoir access cap is tightened shut (see “Accessing the Reservoir”).
4. The unit makes a loud noise during the auto priming or draining process.
Be sure there is sufficient water in the reservoir (See “Filling the Reservoir”).
If the reservoir is already full, unwanted debris may have entered the pump
throughthetop loading slot. Completelydrainanddry the unit(see“Draining&
Maintenance”). Check inside the reservoir via the rear access cap. Significant
debris or any hard particles should be removed before operation. Add new
water after cleaning out the reservoir (see “Filling the Reservoir”).
5. The unit makes odd noises during the washing cycle (0-100%).
The ultrasonic transducers will produce a moderate squeeling or grinding
noise when cleaning, which is normal. The record is also rotated with a belt
motor during this process. If a more significant noise is heard, try turning off
the unit and placing it onto a different surface. Although the transducers are
insulated, vibrations might be exaggerated by some table surfaces.
6. The record does not rotate properly during the cleaning or drying cycle.
This can occur if there are significant irregularities or “flat spots” in the outer
edge of the disc. It may help to lightly smooth the outer edge of the vinyl with
sandpaper. If sanding, rinse the disc to remove vinyl debris before inserting it
into the cleaning unit.
7. The power consumption of the unit is less than 200W.
Power consumption of the ultrasonic transducers depends upon the surface
of the record. If there are less grooves or debris, power usage will be lower.
