Turn on the external device, then turn on the Disklavier.

Gradually turn up the volume on the external device until a desirable volume is obtained.

Note: The volume of the Amplifier is linked with the AUX IN connectors. Make sure the VOLUME knob on the Amplifier is set to an appropriately audible level. If it is turned fully counterclockwise, no sound may be produced even when you adjust the volume on the external device.

With external devices mentioned above, volume can be adjusted for sound that is output from the LINE OUT jack. If not, use the headphone jack on the external device instead of the LINE OUT jack.
