To use these records, first make sure your turntable is clean and in good working order. Gently place the record on the turntable and use the tonearm to drop the needle at the start of the groove. When you're done listening, lift the tonearm carefully and turn off the turntable. To keep these records in good shape, always handle them by the edges to avoid fingerprints. Store them upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If there's dust on the records, use a record brush to gently clean them before playing.
