Troubleshooting
•Do not connect the audio input jack toa line level output. The jack only workscorrectly with devices that have aheadphone output with a volumecontrol.
•Do not set the portable music player'svolume level higher than is necessaryto match the volume of the FM radioas this causes distortion and reducessound quality.
•If the music sounds distorted at lowerlistening levels, turn the portable musicplayer volume down. If the problempersists, replace or recharge thebatteries in the portable media player.
•Control the portable media player inthe same manner when used withheadphones, as the auxiliary input jackdoes not provide control (such as Playor Pause) over the attached portablemedia player.
