Select FM AUTO? above to switch back to auto- stereo mode (the STEREO indicator lights when receiving a stereo broadcast).

Listening to other sources

You can connect an external source for playback through this system’s speakers. See Connecting auxiliary components on page 12 for more on this.

3If necessary, start playback of the source.

Tip

If an auxiliary source is producing unpleasant distortion from the speakers, you can reduce the signal level by switching on the attenuator. See Optional system settings on page 48 to do this.
