ing. Therefore, the location of your turntable is very
important. Find a location which is very stable and
free from vibration or close the dust cover if it is
open, or carry through both measures.
Induction Hum
Your turntable utilizes a brushless DC servo motor to
reduce inductive hum. If annoying inductive hum is
heard, it can be caused by the electromagnetic field
produced from the motors or transformers used in
another device. Do not place the turntable near a
device in which a motor or transformer is
used. To prevent the turntable from being affected
by the power transformer of your amplifier, receiver
or tape deck, position the turntable on the opposite
side of the power transformer.
Simultaneous use of tuner and turntable
Do not use the turntable while the tuner is receiving a
program since this will result in interference.
