CONNECTING TO AN
AUDIO OUTPUT
COMPONENT
To hear the music along with your voice,
connect your stereo amplifier/receiver to
the karaoke’s
OUT L
and
R
jacks using
the supplied cable. Use the white plug
for the left connection and the red plug
for the right connection at both ends of
the cable.
Note:
If you turn off the karaoke, the
sound from the audio source still passes
through the karaoke to the audio output
component unaffected until you turn off
the source and/or the output compo-
nents.
Caution:
If you connect the karaoke’s
input and output to the same audio com-
ponent (like a tape deck monitor circuit
in a receiver), the karaoke cannot isolate
the ground to the input jacks. This caus-
es the right channel to short to ground
and feed the left channel to both the left
and right outputs.
CONNECTING POWER
You can power your karaoke system us-
ing one of the following power sources.
• four AA batteries
• AC power
Installing Batteries
You can power the karaoke system with
four AA batteries (not supplied). For the
longest life and best performance, we
recommend RadioShack alkaline batter-
ies.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the
required size and recommended
type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries,
different types of batteries (stan-
dard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.
Follow these steps to install the batter-
ies.
