Using AC Power

To power your karaoke from a stan- dard AC outlet, you need an AC adapter, such as Cat. No. 273-1652.

Caution: You must use an AC adapt- er that supplies 12 volts DC power and at least 200 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to positive and it must have a plug that properly fits the DC 12V jack. The recommended adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage your karaoke or the AC adapter.

Note: Connecting an AC adapter dis- connects internal batteries.

1.Insert the proper-sized barrel plug into the adapter’s cord so it reads TIP+ (positive).

2.Insert the AC adapter’s barrel plug into the karaoke’s DC 12V jack.

3.Plug the AC adapter into a stan- dard AC outlet.

CONNECTING TO AN AUDIO SOURCE

Connect an audio source (such as a CD player or stereo system) to the karaoke so you can sing along with the sound from that source.

Connect the source’s stereo audio output jacks to the karaoke’s AUX IN L and R jacks using the supplied cable. Use the white plug for the left connec- tion and the red plug for the right con- nection at both ends of the cable.

Note: If your audio source does not have AUX OUT jacks, but has only a headphone output jack (such as is of- ten found on a portable tape player or CD player), use a shielded Y-adapter cord with phono plugs on one end (such as Cat. No. 42-2475). Connect the single-plug end to the audio source’s headphone jack, and con- nect the other end’s two phono plugs to the karaoke’s AUX IN L and R jacks.
