Playing Your Lyra Recorder in Your Car Stereo

A car power adapter is included with your Lyra Portable Multi-media Recorder, allowing you to power your Lyra from the cigarette lighter socket of a car, truck, or RV. It converts 12-volts to a 4.5-volt output. You can also purchase an optional cassette adapter to let you listen to the Lyra Recorder without having to wear headphones.

1.If the headphones are attached, remove them. Insert the plug on the cassette adapter into the LINE OUT jack on the player.

2.Set the volume control on the cassette player to your normal listening level. Also set your Lyra Recorder’s volume to roughly step 24.

Note: It may be necessary to slightly adjust the Lyra Recorder’s volume to attain best overall sound quality.
