Important: Remove the plastic cartridge
cover (needle cover) before operating the
turntable.
1. Platter: Place your record here.
2. Tonearm: The tonearm can be raised
and lowered by hand, or by pressing
the raise / lower lever. Please note
that the tonearm needs to be moved
away from resting position (on the
arm clip) for the turntable motor to
activate. When the tonearm is placed
back in its resting position, the
turntable motor will deactivate if
Autostop has been turned on.
3. Arm Clip: This specially designed arm clip secures the tonearm while at rest or when not
in use. The arm clip has been designed to remain in the up position while unlocked.
4. Pre-Mounted Cartridge: This is a replaceable cartridge with stylus. To purchase a
replacement cartridge and stylus, find the page for Compact LP at ionaudio.com.
5. Raise / Lower Lever: Raises and lowers the tonearm.
6. 33 / 45 / 78 Switch: This switch controls the RPM of the turntable platter.
Note: For best results when playing 78 RPM vinyl records, use a 78 stylus (sold
separately). Only use a 78 stylus with 78 RPM vinyl records. Purchase a 78 RPM stylus at
ionaudio.com.
7. Autostop Switch: This switch turns autostop on or off. When autostop is on, the platter
will start spinning when the tonearm is placed over the record and stop spinning when
the record has reached the end. (When autostop is off, the platter will always spin
regardless of the position of the tonearm.)
Note: If your vinyl record stops before it reaches the end of the music, turn Autostop to
the off position for this particular record. This is generally recommended for 45 RPM
records.
8. 45 RPM Adapter Holder: Holds the included 45 RPM adapter. When not using the
adapter, please place it in this holder.

1. USB Audio Output: Use the
included USB cable to connect your
turntable to your computer. The USB
connection will send audio from the
turntable to your computer. Please see the Using Compact LP with Your Computer
section of this manual for information.
2. RCA Output: The audio from a playing vinyl record is sent to this line-level coaxial audio
output.
Important: You may damage your receiver if you plug in a line level device into a phono
level input. Please only connect these to line level inputs.
