1. Carefully remove the twist-tie from the TONEARM (2).
2. Release the TONEARM LOCK (3).

POWER

1. Plug the supplied AC 100V\~240V, 50/60Hz to DC 5V power adapter into the DC 5V INPUT (13) located on the rear of the turntable.
2. Insert the wall plug of the power adapter into an electrical wall outlet.
3. Turn the turntable on by turning the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8) clockwise.
4. Turn the turntable off by turning the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8) counterclockwise

VOLUME

The Speaker Volume is also controlled by the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8).

• To Increase the Volume: Turn the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8) clockwise.
• To Decrease the Volume: Turn the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8) counterclockwise.

PLAYING A RECORD

1. Set the correct speed for your record (33/45/78 RPM).
2. Place the record on the turntable
3. Turn the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8) clockwise to turn the player on.
4. Unlock the TONEARM LOCK (3) and the TONEARM (2) will be ready for playing.
5. Lower the TONEARM (2) using the TONEARM LEVER (5) until the STYLUS (15) touches the record and begins playing your music. Make sure the TONEARM LEVER (5) is completely down.
6. Adjust the Volume to the desired level by turning the POWER/VOLUME KNOB (8).
7. When finished listening, use the TONEARM LEVER (5) to raise the TONEARM (2) and then place it back on the TONEARM REST (4). The record will automatically stop spinning.
8. If finished using the turntable, be sure to lock the TONEARM LOCK (3).

AUTO STOP

The AUTO STOP feature allows the turntable to automatically stop playing when the STYLUS (15) reaches the end of the record.

• To turn the AUTO STOP feature ON: Set the AUTO STOP CONTROL SWITCH (6) to AUTO.
- To turn the AUTO STOP feature OFF: Set the AUTO STOP CONTROL SWITCH (6) to MANUAL.

NOTE: When using the MANUAL setting, once the record is finished, the player will continue to spin until you raise the TONEARM (2) and move it back to the TONEARM REST (4) which stops the spinning.

CONNECTING TO AN EXTERNAL SPEAKER

Use the included Red & White RCA Cables to connect the turntable to an External Speaker or Stereo system. Simply plug the Red & White ends of the RCA Cable into the corresponding Red & White AUDIO OUTPUT JACKS (12) on the rear of the player.

Then connect the other Red & White ends of the RCA Cable into the corresponding Red & White Audio Input Jacks on your External Speakers or Stereo system. The speaker requires a pre-AMP inside it.

USING HEADPHONES

To use headphones with this player, connect any headphone with a 3.5mm jack into the input on the 3.5mm HEADPHONE JACK (11) located on the rear of the player.

- NOTE: When headphones are plugged in, no sound will be heard from the built-in speakers.

REMOVING THE STYLUS (NEEDLE)

1. Lock the TONEARM (2) on the TONEARM REST (4) by pushing the TONEARM LOCK (3) to the left.

1. Remove the white protective Stylus Cover (if necessary).
2. Hold the bottom of the CARTRIDGE (14) with your thumb & index finger as shown below in Fig. 3a. With your other thumb carefully push down on the top edge of the Red Stylus Assembly (Red piece includes the needle) until the Stylus Assembly separates from the CARTRIDGE (14) as shown in Fig 3b.
3. Carefully remove the entire Stylus Assembly from the Cartridge by pulling the Stylus Assembly away from the CARTRIDGE (14) (FIG 4a).

INSTALLING A THE STYLUS (NEEDLE)

NOTE: Do not directly touch the STYLUS (NEEDLE) (15) during installation, or you may cause permanent damage to the STYLUS (15).

1. Hold the front tip of the Stylus Assembly with your thumb and index fingers and insert the rear edge of the Stylus Assembly on the CARTRIDGE (14) as shown in Fig 5a.
2. While applying gentle pressure on the top of the TONEARM (2) with your index finger, carefully push the Stylus Assembly upwards until you hear a click and the Stylus Assembly locks into place (Fig 6a).
3. The new STYLUS (15) is now ready to use.

- Under normal use a STYLUS (15) should last for about 50-60 hours of record play.

TROUBLESHOOTING

- Check to confirm the SPEED CONTROL SWITCH (7) is correctly set for the record being played (33, 45, or 78 RPM).

RECORDS KEEP SKIPPING

• Carefully look at the surface of the record under a strong light to see if there are any significant scratches or other damage to the record which will cause it to skip.
• Make sure the turntable is on flat and level surface.
• Clean the record with a proper record cleaning brush to remove build-up of dust & dirt in the grooves of the record.
• Check to make sure the STYLUS (15) is in the correct middle position.

NO SOUND

• Make sure the white protective Stylus Cover has been removed from the cartridge.
• Confirm there is nothing plugged into the 3.5mm HEADPHONE JACK (11) on the rear of the player.
• Check the position of the STYLUS (15) to insure it has not shifted out of its proper middle position (See Fig. 7a on page 9).

NO POWER

• Make sure the AC 100V\~240V, 50/60Hz to DC 5V power adapter is securely connected to the DC 5V INPUT (13) on the rear of the turntable as well as the wall outlet.
• Make sure the electrical outlet is working by plugging in another device.
