Before using the unit
Read this before attempting any operations
<
The nominal temperature should be between 5°C and 35°C
(41°F and 95°F). The CD-RW recorder is more sensitive to
extremes of temperature than ordinary CD players.
<
Relative humidity should be 30 to 90 degrees noncondensing.
<
As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave
sufficient space around the unit for ventilation.
<
The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as
printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding
this matter, consult an electrician.
<
Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat,
cold or moisture.
<
Do not place the unit on an amplifier/receiver.
<
Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the
circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into
the unit, contact your dealer or service company.
<
When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always
pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.
<
To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it, and always
close the disc tray.
<
Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
<
Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING PLAYBACK
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed. Do NOT lift or
move the unit during playback. Doing so may damage the
disc or the unit.
WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT
When changing the unit's location or packing the unit for
moving, be sure to remove the record or disc. Moving this
unit with the record or disc loaded may result in damage to
this unit. If the unit is to be packed and moved a great
distance, see Page 9 for instructions.

Handling Records
<
Keep your records away from dust. Keep them in a cool, dry
place.
<
To avoid dust and scratches, keep records in their sleeves and
jackets when not in use.
<
Store records upright on their edges. Records stored
horizontally will eventually bend and warp.
<
Do not expose records to direct sunlight or high humidity and
temperature. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp
the record.
<
Do not store your records in the trunk of your car. The
temperature in a closed trunk can ruin your collection.
<
Store records in an area with stable temperature and
humidity.
<
Should the record become dirty, gently wipe the surface in a
circular motion, using a soft anti-static cloth.
Commercial record cleaning systems are available from many
retailers or on-line. TEAC does not endorse any specific
product but, depending on the condition of your record
collection, it may be advisable to look into one of these
systems. Clean records protect your stylus from undue wear.
<
Do not touch the record's grooves. Only handle records, by
the edges or the label, with clean hands. Skin oils from even
clean hands can leave a residue on the record surface that will
gradually deteriorate the quality of your record.

How to Replace the Stylus
The stylus should last about 200 hours under normal use.
However, it is recommended that the stylus be replaced as soon
as you notice a change in sound quality.
Prolonged use of a worn-out stylus may damage the record.
Caution:
<
Do not remove or bend the stylus.
<
To avoid injury, do not touch the needle.
<
Turn off the unit's power before you replace the stylus.
<
Keep out of the reach of children.
<
Handle with care, as the stylus is delicate. Use of a bent or
broken stylus may damage the record and cause the turntable
to malfunction.
<
Do not expose stylus to extreme heat.
<
Contact a qualified repair company if you experience difficulty
in changing the stylus.
Replacing the Stylus
To remove the stylus assembly (the white one), hold the
cartridge at the end of the tone arm with one hand and slide
the stylus assembly in the direction "A" with your fingers of
the other hand.
The replacement stylus for this GF-650 is a STL-650. Please
contact TEAC Parts at (323) 726-0303, extension 840 to order.
Or call our automated Service Agency Locator at: (800) 447-
TEAC for the closest authorized repair company that can
replace the stylus for you.
To install a new stylus, insert its white assembly in the
direction "B" and then push it in the direction "C". Make
certain that the assembly "clicks" up into place.
