2. Insert the adapter’s plug into the

system’s

DC 9V

INPUT

jack.

3. Plug the adapter into a standard

AC outlet.

Using Vehicle Battery Power

You can power the system from your
vehicle’s battery if the vehicle has a
12-volt DC, negative-ground electri-
cal system. This connection requires
a DC adapter, such as Cat. No. 270-
1562.

Cautions:

• If you are not sure what type of

electrical system your vehicle
has, check with the vehicle
dealer.

• The adapter must supply 9 volts,

its center tip must be set to neg-
ative, it must deliver 500 milli-
amps, and its plug must
correctly fit the

DC 9V INPUT

jack. The recommended adapter
meets these requirements.
Using any other adapter could
damage the system or the
adapter.

Plug the smaller end of the adapter
into the

DC 9V INPUT

jack on the back

of the system. Then plug the larger

end into the vehicle’s cigarette-light-
er socket.

Caution: To avoid electrical shock
and damage to the system and vehi-
cle, always unplug the adapter from
the cigarette-lighter socket before
unplugging it from the system.

CONNECTING
ANOTHER AUDIO
SOURCE

You can connect another audio
source (such as a stereo VCR or CD
player) to the system so you can sing
along with the audio source’s sound.
Connect the source’s headphone
output jack to the system’s

AUX IN-

PUT

jack.

Note

:

If your audio source has

AUX

OUT

jacks (such as those found on a

stereo VCR or CD player), use a
shielded Y-adapter cord with phono
plugs on each end (such as Cat. No.
42- 2475). Connect the end with the
single plug to the system’s

AUX IN-

PUT

jack and connect the other end’s

two phono plugs to the AUX OUT
jacks on the audio source.
