Using the easy demagnetization function

Using the easy demagnetization function to demagnetize MC car-
tridges with iron cores and step-up transformers, for example, could
improve the sound quality by making it clearer and giving it greater
definition.

Use the INPUT knob to select the input source
that has the cartridge connected you want to
demagnetize.
2
Press the DEMAG button to turn on easy
demagnetization.
The indicator to the left of the button lights when easy demag-
netization is on.
This sets the load impedance to 0 Ω and shorts both ends of the
cartridge.

The playback signal current goes through the cartridge and
demagnetizes it.
o Demagnetization takes about 30 seconds. Keep the record
playing for about 30 seconds.

4
Press the DEMAG button to turn off easy
demagnetization.
Confirm that the indicator to the left of the button is no longer lit.
