1. Let's play the AX1B

Turn on the power

The AX1B does not have a power switch. The power
will be turned on when one of the following occurs.
• If you are using batteries, the power will be
turned on when you connect a mono phone
plug cable to the INPUT jack.
If you connect a stereo phone plug cable, the
power will not be turned on.
When the power is turned on, the AX1B will au-
tomatically be in Play mode.
The program selected at power-on will be the
program which had been selected when the
power was last turned off.
To maximize the battery life, disconnect the cable
from the INPUT jack when you are not using the
AX1B.
• If you are using the separately sold AC
adapter, the power will be turned on when
you connect the AC adapter to an AC outlet.
Before you turn off the power of the AX1B, turn
off the power of the other connected equipment.

Adjusting the master level (overall volume)

The master level adjusts the final output volume of the
AX1B. The master level setting is displayed in Play
mode in the lower right of the LCD.
Use the VALUE [+] or [-] keys to adjust the
master level. If you continue holding a key,
the value will change rapidly.
Normally you will leave the master level at 30
(maximum). The output of the AX1B will be opti-
mal when the master level is set at 30. If the out-
put sound is distorted when the master level is
30 and you play with the AX1B bypassed, re-
duce the master level so that the sound does
not distort.
