5.1 Maintenance
• Always keep the stylus tip clean. When dirt is allowed to build-up and records are played with
a dirty or clogged stylus, a „buzzing noise" can be heard. Use a high quality cleaning brush or
Clearaudio cleaning fluid to clean the stylus tip. Be extremely careful and always brush only
from the back to front.When using a liquid e.g. from Clearaudio or other organic cleaner,
always take care not to spill any on the cartridge body. Make sure the liquid will always contact
only the stylus tip or boron cantilever.
• Before playing a record, please remove all dust and dirt from the record surface using a quality
cleaning device. For the best results, a record cleaning machine should be used. Ask your dea-
ler for Clearaudio´ s Matrix-cleaning machines. (e.g.
Professional Sonic
, cleaning both sides of LP-record at once!)

use extreme care and not to use any steel or magnetic parts near the cartridge, which may be
attracted to it and possibly damage the stylus or boron cantilever.
