PREPARING YOUR CD CHANGER

CONNECTING THE CD CHANGER TO YOUR RECEIVER/AMPLIFIER

Caution: Do not connect the CD changer to AC power until you complete all other connections.

1.Select a location for your CD changer that is near your receiver/amplifier and a standard AC outlet.

2.Plug one end of the supplied audio cable into the CD changer’s L (left) and R (right) LINE OUT jacks, matching the red plug to the red R LINE OUT jack and the white plug to the white L LINE OUT jack.

3.Plug the other end of the audio cable into the receiver’s or amplifier’s left and right CD, AUX, or TAPE input jacks.

Cautions

•Do not connect the CD changer to the receiver’s or amplifier’s PHONO inputs.

•Do not place the CD changer on top of the receiver/ amplifier or any other component that gets hot.

Note: If you place the CD changer too near other audio components or their wires, you might hear a hum when you play a CD. Move the components or their wires to eliminate the hum.

CONNECTING TO ANOTHER DIGITAL AUDIO PRODUCT

You can connect the CD changer to another digital audio product such as a digital recorder. You need an optical cable (available through your local RadioShack store) for this connection. To make the connection, remove the protective dust cap from the digital jacks, and connect the optical cable to the jacks.

Note: Be sure to leave the dust cap in place when you are not using the jack.

CONNECTING POWER

After you have connected the CD changer to your receiver or amplifier, plug the CD changer’s power cord into a standard AC outlet.

Caution: To prevent electric shock, the plug’s blades are polarized and fit only one way. If the plug does not fit easily, turn it over and try again. Do not force the plug into any AC outlet.

Note: Do not connect the CD changer’s power cord to an amplifier or other switched outlet. The CD changer loses memorized settings when power is removed.
