Precautions when playing records.
e Lower the stylus gently on to the surface of the
record. It is a good idea to set the muting switch
to —20dB or to turn the volume down when
lowering the stylus onto the record.
® Set the subsonic filter switch to 15Hz when
there is a great deal of noise in the low-
frequency region or when the bass speaker's
diaphragm moves even though no sound can be
heard during a performance.
e Do not cause the turntable to vibrate while a
record is being played since this will cause the
stylus to jump and scratch the record. Do not
turn off the power if the stylus is still tracing
grooves on the record.

2. Operate the tuner and tune in to the desired
