POWERING UP
The Fono MC is turned on by pressing the
on-off button located on the front. When the
unit is active the Rega logo will glow RED.
WARNING: We advise you to turn the Fono
on first followed by the amplifier. This
is because the power surge in the Fono
could cause an audible power on "thump"
which may distress the speakers.

METHOD OF CONNECTION

INPUT: Connect the tonearm leads and
earth (if used) to the input socket and to the
earth terminal on the back of the Fono.
