To turn the power off, turn off the power of
your equipment in the order of steps 5, 4, and 3.
Place the AC adaptor so the side with the
indicator (see illustration) faces upwards and the
side with textual information faces downwards.
The indicator will light when you plug the AC
adaptor into an AC outlet.

Connecting Your Equipment
* To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.
* Once everything is properly connected, be sure to follow the procedure above to turn on their power. If you turn on equipment in the wrong
order, you risk causing malfunction or equipment failure.
* Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when
switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
* When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs (MIC jacks Guitar (L/MONO)/R jack, LINE
IN L, R/STEREO jacks) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.
* Acoustic feedback could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:
