EXTERNAL COMPONENT OPERATIONS

Playing an external component

You can connect two external components to this
unit.
Connect one to the CD changer jack on the rear
using the Line Input Adaptor KS-U57 (not supplied),
and the other to the AUX (auxiliary) input jack on
the control panel.
Preparations:
• For connecting the Line Input Adaptor KS-U57 and
the external component, refer to the Installation/
Connection Manual (separate volume).
• Before operating the external component using the
following procedure, select the external input
correctly. (See "To select the external component to
use – EXT IN" on page 29.)

Select the external component
(LINE IN or AUX IN).
To select "LINE IN" (component
connected to the CD changer jack on the
rear), press CD CD-CH (AUX) repeatedly.
• If "LINE IN" does not appear on the display, see
page 29 and select the external input ("LINE IN").
• Displayed only when one of the following
sources is selected – FM, AM and CD.

you want. (See pages 23 – 25.)
Note:
If the input level of the external components connected
to the AUX jack is not high enough, increase the input
level properly.
Without adjusting the input level, you may be surprised
at a loud sound when you change the source from the
external components to another. (See "To adjust the
auxiliary input level – AUX ADJ" on page 29.)
Note on One-Touch Operation:
When you press CD CD-CH (AUX), the power
automatically comes on. You do not have to press
to turn on the power.
