Cautions on use

About condensation
Water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit (on operating
parts and lenses) in the winter, for example, if the unit is moved from a
cold place into a warm room or if the temperature in the room in which
the unit is installed rises suddenly (through heating, etc.). The unit will
not operate properly and will not be playable with condensation inside.
Let the unit stand for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature (though this
time depends on the conditions of the condensation) without turning on
the power. The water droplets will evaporate and the unit will become
playable. Condensation can occur in the summer as well if the unit is
exposed to the direct wind from an air-conditioner, etc. If this happens,
move the unit to a different location.
When transporting the unit to another location
Use the original packing materials to pack the unit.
If the original packing materials are not available, be sure to perform the
following.
Detach the turntable sheet and turntable and pack carefully.
Detach the headshell and balance weight from the arm and pack
carefully.
Use the arm clamper to secure the tone arm and use tape to secure
it so that it does not move.
Wrap the main unit in a blanket or soft paper so that it will not be
damaged.
