3. Set-up and operation

3.1

Place the

Smart Matrix Professional

machine on a clean, dry and stable surface.

The surface should be waterproof. Please make sure that the machine is positioned safely and securely.

TIP: We recommend keeping a towel near the machine to mop up any uid spillage.

Please check that the microber strips are not worn out or dirty before each cleaning session as using worn

or dirty strips could damage to a record.

Dust and dirt can be removed with a toothbrush and rinsing under water.

To change the microber strips, peel them off the vacuum arm and carefully clean the tube with an alcohol

based cleaning uid. Remove the protective backing from the spare microber strip to expose the glue and

stick them alongside the suction slot of the vacuum arm. Please take care not to obstruct the suction slot

with the microber strips.

The

Smart Matrix Professional

should not be used for 24 hours after changing the microber strips. The

adhesive takes 24 hours to fully cure. If used too soon the strips may not hold properly to the vacuum arm

and could damage your records.

IMPORTANT:

Always check the microber strips before use.

Heavily soiled or worn strips can damage your records.

TIP: Microber strip lifespan is dependent on use. If

you are cleaning a lot of very dirty records you should

change the strips every 200 record sides.

Take the vacuum arm (Pic. 5) and insert it into the hole at the

front left hand side of the machine. Pay attention that the two

pins on the vacuum arm are aligned with the two cut outs in

the machine.

Push the vacuum arm down until it is fully inserted.

To remove the vacuum arm, pull it carefully upwards.

3.2

Connect the mains cable to your

Smart Matrix Professional

and then to your wall socket.

The

Smart Matrix Professional

must always be used with a grounded mains wall socket.

Important: Before connecting your machine to the

mains, always make sure that it is the correct version

for the mains supply voltage in your country. You will

nd an indication sign (sticker) with the appropriate

information on the rear panel.

3.3

The operation of the

Smart Matrix Professional

is simple:

There are three buttons on the front panel.

3.4

For simple and effective record cleaning please follow these steps:

1. Connect the

Smart Matrix Professional

machine to the mains supply and switch the main switch on the

rear panel on.

2. Take off the vacuum arm from the arm base. Unscrew and remove the record clamp.

Place the Record on the platter and hand-tighten the record clamp onto the spindle.

Replace the vacuum arm into the arm base.

3. Start the machine on by using the front panel button marked „POWER“.

4. Take the bottle with the cleaning uid (in the accessory bag) and cut off the marked top of the

dispenser. Gently hold the Clearaudio

Pure Groove cleaning brush

(Art. No. AC015) against the LP surface

and dispense a small amount of the uid onto the record.

Bedienungsanleitung

Pic. 8: Manual uid application

Please note:

The uid should just cover the whole record playing surface evenly. Too much uid will spill onto the

Smart Matrix Professional

or onto the record label.

5. Gently hold the cleaning brush against the record while the platter makes approximately two complete

turns in each direction (clockwise and anti-clockwise), using the button marked „PLATTER“ to change the

direction of rotation.

Please note:

If too much uid is applied, immediately mop up excess uid with a towel or similar material

to prevent any damage to the record label or to the machine!

Page / Seite 9© clearaudio electronic GmbH 2017

TIP: For very dirty records, we recommend allowing the platter to turn more than twice in

each direction and repeating with a second or even third cleaning and vacuum process.

Please note:

Select anti-clockwise rotation of the platter for vacumming and thereafter do not switch the

rotation during the vacuuming process.

6. Press the ‘VACUUM’ button to start the vacuum process and wait until the record surface is completely

dry. Press the VACUUM button again to stop the vacuum process at which point the vacuum arm will lift

automatically. Please don’t lift up the vacuum arm before this otherwise a line of uid may be left on the

record.

7. Switch the machine off using the POWER button.

8. Remove the record clamp. Flip over the record and repeat the cleaning process for the other side.

3.5 Cleaning uid tank

Please empty the waste uid tank after 30 – 40 cleaning procedures.

For cleaning the waste uid tank, remove the upper cleaning arm and ll 250 ml warm water in the

cleaning uid into the stainless steel tube.

To empty the tank: rst remove the stopper from the uid release tube (on the rear panel of the

Smart Matrix Professional

Place the tube in an appropriate vessel to capture the uid as it is ows out. Be sure to securely replace

the stopper in the uid release tube.

Please note:

If you take the machine into operation again, the drain tube must always be closed by the

stopper, so that the vacuum pump can generate the required vacuum for suction. Only

through this we can guarantee a lasting and full function of your cleaning maschine.

The drain tube is xed with screws to prevent to push it back into the machine or to pull it out

too far.
