Turn the ON/OFF SWITCH to OFF and after about 5 seconds to ON again to re-activate the unit.

The unit keeps shutting itself down * *
This unit has a power saving feature: If the unit is not operated or there is no signal output for 15 minutes, it will automatically turn itself off. Turn the ON/OFF VOLUME switch to OFF and then after 5 seconds to ON again to reactivate the unit. (Refer to the IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION section on back page)
My 45rpm records do not fit on the turntable spindle *
If the hole in the middle of the 45rpm ‘single’ is large because the centre clip is missing, place the supplied 45rpm Spindle Adaptor on the turntable first to make it fit.
My record does not play at the correct speed * *
Switch the Speed Control Switch to the correct one for 331/3 or 45 rpm records. While the record is playing, turn the Speed Adjustment knob on the turntable deck slightly anti-clockwise or clockwise (- / +) until the desired speed has been achieved.
My 331/3 record wobbles when placed on the Turntable Platter *
Make sure you have folded down the ARM LOCK before placing the record on it, or that the 45rpm SPINDLE ADAPTOR has not been left on the turntable platter.
The Tone Arm slides across the record and does not play it * *
If the white protective stylus cover is still covering the needle holder and cartridge – please remove it. The Stylus tip may be damaged – purchase and replace the Stylus. (See Specifications for details).
No sound is heard when the record is playing

WARNING:
The red stylus holder has a very small Sapphire stylus tip that is barely visible. Make sure the replacement needle you purchased is the same as the needle already on the tone arm. See the Specifications section for further details on how to purchase one* This universal needle is safe to use for 331/3 and 45 rpm speed records. When to replace the needle depends on how often you use your turntable and the condition of the records played. The Sapphire stylus will give an average of 1000 hours playing time.
