CONNECTIONS

Caution: To avoid electrical shock, do not connect the system to AC power un- til all other connections are complete.

CONNECTING

MICROPHONES

The system has two microphone jacks so you can use the supplied microphone to sing along to your favorite recordings, and connect an additional microphone for duets or lead and background vocals.

The additional microphone must have a 1/4-inch plug and an ON/OFF switch. To help prevent feedback, we recommend a unidirectional microphone. (RadioShack carries a wide variety of microphones.)

To connect either one or two micro- phones, first rotate the MIC 1 and MIC 2 volume controls counterclockwise to MIN.

MAX	MIN	MAX	MIN
MIC 1		MIC 2

If you connect only one microphone, plug it into the jack directly in front of the MIC 1 volume control. If you add a sec- ond microphone, plug it into the jack di- rectly in front of the MIC 2 volume control.

CONNECTING TO AN AUDIO SOURCE

You must connect an audio source (such as a CD player or stereo system) to the karaoke system, so you can sing along with the music.

Connect the audio source’s stereo out- put jacks to the karaoke system’s CD or TAPE IN R and L jacks, according to the type of audio source, using the supplied cable. Use the white plug for the left connection and the red plug for the right connection.

Audio Source Jacks

Note: You can connect the karaoke to both a CD and a tape audio source at the same time. However, the karaoke only plays one source at a time. (See “Controls” on Page 7.)

If the audio source does not have AUX OUT jacks, but has a headphone output jack (such as is often found on a porta- ble tape player or CD player), use a shielded Y-adapter to connect it to the karaoke. (RadioShack carries a wide va- riety of Y-adapters.) Connect the Y- adapter’s single-plug end to the audio source’s headphone jack, and connect the Y-adapter’s two phono plugs to the karaoke’s CD or TAPE IN R and L jacks.

If you connect a second audio source, you need an additional audio patch ca- ble. (RadioShack carries a wide variety of audio cables.)
