CAUTION
Before connecting the Clavinova to other electronic components, turn off the power to all the components. Before
turning the power on or off to all components, set all volume levels to minimum (0). Otherwise, electrical shock or
damage to the components may occur.
1
AUX OUT [R], [L/L+R] jacks
You can connect these jacks to a stereo system to amplify the Clavinova or to a
cassette tape recorder to record your performance. Refer to the diagram below
and use audio cables for connection.
Adjust the volume level on the stereo system or cassette tape recorder, not
using the Clavinova's [MASTER VOLUME] slider.
CAUTION
When the Clavinova's AUX OUT jacks are connected to an external audio sys-
tem, first turn on the power to the Clavinova, then to the external audio system.
Reverse this order when you turn the power off.

CAUTION
Do not route the output from
the AUX OUT jacks to the
AUX IN jacks. That is, when
you connect an external
audio device to the AUX
OUT jacks, do not connect
the audio device to the
Clavinova's AUX IN jacks. If
you make this connection,
the signal input at the AUX
IN jacks is output from the
AUX OUT. This creates an
audio loop, causing audio
oscillation and abnormal
playback, leading to mal-
function of both pieces of
equipment.
TIP
Use audio cables and
adapter plugs with no resis-
tance.
TIP
The Clavinova's [MASTER
VOLUME] slider setting
does not affect the signal
output from the AUX OUT
jacks.
