Using the Crosley Cruiser Plus turntable is a breeze. First, find a flat and stable surface for it. If you want to use the built - in speakers, just turn it on and place your record on the turntable. You can choose the right speed (33 1/3, 45 or 78 RPM) according to your record. Use the pitch control to adjust the speed a bit if you like. If you want to use external speakers, connect them via Bluetooth or the RCA output. You can also plug in headphones through the headphone jack for private listening. For the aux input, you can connect other audio devices. When not in use, keep it in a dry and dust - free place. Clean the turntable gently with a soft cloth. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures or humidity. And have fun customizing it with the colored pencils that come with it!
