and
TV
sets.
A
turntable
installed
in
close
proximity
to
such
equipment,
may
cause
noise
or
degradation
of
the
picture.
Such
noise
may
be
particularly
noticeable
when
an

increased,
conden-
sation
may

1,000
hours.
(As
a
rough
guide,
if
the
turntable
is
used
for
1
to
2
hours
every
day,
the
stylus
should
last
1
to
2
years.)
if
the
life
of
the
stylus
is
exceeded,
or
use
is
made
of
a
damaged
stylus,
the
record
may
be
damaged.
and
the
playback
sound
may
be
distorted.
Please
take
care
to
replace
the
stylus
ahead
of
time.
@
For
the
replacement
stylus,
make
sure
to
purchase
and
use
a
Pioneer
PN-295T.
The
cartridge
installed
in
the
turntable,
is
a
unit
which
was
developed
by
Pioneer.
For
this
reason,
use can
only
be
made
of
the
special
replacement
stylus,
so
please
purchase
the
required
stylus

you
use
a
replacement
stylus
that
is
manufac-
tured
by
any
other
company,
there
can
be
no
guarantee
with
respect
to
degradation
of
