more certain than using a finger to do so.

Basic operation
Attaching the dust cover
Hinge
Main unit
Dust cover
1 Insert the hinges completely into the
hinge holders at the left and right ends
of the back of the main unit.
2 Align the tops of the hinges with the
dust cover hinge holders and insert
them.
o Close the dust cover during playback. Since doing this pre-
vents skipping caused by unintended contact and blocks
external sound pressure, it makes noise less likely to occur.
o Do not open or close it when a record is playing. Doing so
could, for example, cause the stylus to skip.
o Keep it closed whenever possible to keep dust out.
Removing the dust cover
Hold both edges of the dust cover and lift it slowly to remove it
along with the hinges from the unit. Then, remove the hinges
from the dust cover.
