Notes
about
record styluses
•
Record
styluses
are
precision
parts,
so
handle
them
care-
fully to
avoid
bending
or
damaging
their
tips.
If a
stylus
becomes
bent
or
damaged,
It might not
be
able
to
follow
the
audio
groove
precisely
and
could
damage
records
or
cause
other
malfunction.
• If a
stylus
becomes
dirty,
use
a
commercially
available
stylus
cleaner
or
similar
product
to
clean
It
Replacing
the
stylus
A
record
stylus
will
become
worn
down
after
it
has
been
used
for
about
500
hours
(TN-280BT
standard
models)
or
300
hours
(TN-280BT-AIWA).
This
will
worsen
the
sound
quality
and
could
damage
records.
Replace
the
stylus
with
one
that
we
recom-
mend
before
this
occurs.
•
Before
replacing
the
stylus,
turn
this
unit
and
the
amplifier
off.
Failure
to do
so
could
cause
sudden
loud
noises
that
might
damage
speakers.
•
Be
careful
not to hurt
your
hand
or
the
equipment.
•
Be
careful
not
to
allow
small
children
to
accidentally
swal-
low
styluses.
•
Be
aware
that bent
styluses,
for
example,
that
result
from
insufficient
customer
caution
or
an
outside
cause
are
not
covered
by
the
warranty.
