Connections
6
AUX IN [R], [L/L+R] jacks
The stereo outputs from another instrument can be connected to these jacks,
allowing the sound of an external instrument to be reproduced via the Clavi-
nova's speakers. Refer to the diagram below and use audio cables for connec-
tion.
CAUTION
When the Clavinova's AUX IN jacks are connected to an external device, first
turn on the power to the external divice, then to the Clavinova. Reverse this order
when you turn the power off.

AUX OUT [R][L] Pin jacks (LEVEL FIXED), [R][L/L+R] Phone jacks
These jacks let you connect the Clavinova to your stereo system etc. to play at
higher volumes, or connect a cassette recorder etc. to record your playing.
Use audio cables to make connections as shown in the diagram.
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.

TIP
The Clavinova's [MASTER
VOLUME] dial setting affects
the input signal from the AUX
IN jacks, but the [REVERB],
[CHORUS], and BRIL-
LIANCE [MELLOW]
[BRIGHT] (page 30) settings
do not.
TIP
If you connect the Clavi-
nova to a monaural device,
use only the AUX IN [L/L+R]
jack or AUX OUT [L/L+R]
jack.
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 will be output from
AUX OUT. This creates an
audio loop, causing audio
oscillation and abnormal
playback, and leading to
malfunction of both pieces
of equipment.
TIP
Use audio cables and adap-
tor plugs with no resistance.
TIP
The Clavinova's [MASTER
VOLUME] setting will not
affect the sound that is out-
put from AUX OUT (LEVEL
FIXED).
