STANDBY when the unit is in standby.
After power on, the current settings are displayed for approx. ten seconds. Pressing
again, will display the
settings again.

and select a menu item. A long press on stores the settings.
To find out which type your cartridge is please consult the literature accompanying your cartridge. The
literature for cartridges should also specify the correct input impedance (low-output MC cartridges) and the
correct input capacitance (high-output MC and MM cartridges), into which the cartridge is designed to work.
If in doubt please consult your dealer.
The memory retains its contents through a power off/on cycle and a power failure.
