Quick Start
Turning the power on
Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to
your various devices in the order specified. By turning on
devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction
and/or damage to speakers and other devices.
1. Before turning on the power, check the following
points:
• Have the connections been made correctly?
• Have you turned down the volume on the SP-505 and all
connected devices?
• If you are using a memory card, make sure that it is
firmly inserted all the way.
If the memory card is inserted only halfway into the card
slot when the power is turned on, not only the card but
the data in the SP-505 itself will be damaged.
If you insert or remove a card with the power turned on,
or turn on the power when a card is inserted halfway, a
message of “WARNING! Data Maybe Damaged!” will
appear, and operation will stop. If this occurs, turn off
the power, insert the card all the way or remove it, and
then turn the power on once again.
2. Turn on the POWER switch located on the rear panel of
the SP-505.
* Even when the volume is turned down, you may notice some
noise when the power is turned on, but this does not indicate a
malfunction.

before the unit will operate normally.

4. While striking the pads of the SP-505, turn the
VOLUME knob to adjust the volume appropriately.
* If you have connected an external amp, slightly raise the
volume of the external amp before you turn the SP-505’s
VOLUME knob.
