Connecting a turntable
Be sure to match the color of the plugs and
the connectors. To listen to the sound from
the connected turntable, press FUNCTION
repeatedly until “PHONO” appears.
Note
Using the turntable at high volume may cause
distortion or howling. This is often caused by the
bass sound from the speakers. The bass sound may
be picked up by the needle of the turntable, and
produce the distortion or howling. To avoid this, do

Keep some distance between the speakers and the
turntable.
