AC power cord
Note: The LINE OUT/PHONE LEVEL control adjusts
the output level of the HEADPHONES jack and the
VARIABLE LINE OUT jacks.
If the LINE OUT/PHONE LEVEL control is turned
while recording through the VARIABLE LINE OUT
jacks, the level of the recorded sound will be
different from that set by the recording level
controls of the tape deck.
Power cord
A white mark is visible on one lead of the power cord.
This will help you drive the CD player and other components
in the system “in phase” by aligning the AC power cord
polarities with AC outlet polarities. In most cases, the
marked plug of the CD player’s power cord should be
inserted into the negative potential of the AC outlet.
